Samoa have qualified for the Cup quarter finals at a World Sevens Series event for just the second time this season.
The Manu bounced back from an opening defeat to Fiji, beating Kenya 26-19 and thrashing Portugal 43-7 to finish second in Pool A behind their Pacific neighbours.

It's the first time Samoa have made the last eight since the opening round of the season in Dubai back in November.
Samoa will face New Zealand, while series leaders Fiji will take on the USA after coming from behind to beat Kenya in their final pool game to secure top spot.
In the other quarter-final fixtures, South Africa play Wales and Australia play Scotland.
