Hosts Korea beat Hong Kong 12-7 in the final of the Asia Rugby Olympic qualifier in the most thrilling of circumstances to secure their place in the men's sevens competition at Tokyo 2020.
With the match in sudden death extra-time, Korea turned over Hong Kong by winning a penalty near their own try-line and then held on to possession expertly before Seongmin Jang finished off the length-of-the-field move to spark wild celebrations within the Namdong Asiad Stadium in Incheon.

A STAR IS BORN - Jorja Miller 🌟
Congratulations to Year 11 Christchurch Girls' High School student Jorja Miller for winning the MVP award for the Open Girls Grade at the 2019 Youth Town Condor Sevens. The Timaru-born playmaker scored an incredible 4 tries in the final!
We can't wait to see Jorja and the rest of the tournament team play at the Sky Sport NZ World Schools 7's next weekend!

Apparently, she's also very good in XVs. She's an openside flanker.
