It was a hard-fought battle for The Flying Fijian's who put their heart and soul into the Rugby World Cup quarterfinal against England.
Head coach Simon Raiwalui told Sky Sport it was an emotional moment after his team's close match losing to England 30-24.
He says after 15 weeks of hard work, he could not be prouder of the team and was thankful to all Fijian supporters.
