Highlights: Italy vs Fiji
- 1696
Italy faced Fiji in the Estadio Angelo Massimino, this was both teams first international in the series. The two teams played wide rugby and they both looked to keep the ball off the ground with lots of offloads. It was perfect for conditions for the match and there was no excuse for the number of knock-ons by the two sides. The scrum was a massive area where both teams were penalised, both teams suffered on the scoreboard because of it. A huge congratulation to Ian McKinley who got his debut despite a difficult past few years. The full-time score was 19-10 to Italy
