Antoine Dupont Ends Fiji's Olympic Rugby Sevens Dominance

Underdogs Overcome Steep Challenge

WEB SAINT-DENIS France -- It took Antoine Dupont and his status as his sports best player to finally end Fijis dominance of Olympic rugby sevens.

Fiji's Impressive Run Ends

Facing a steep challenge as the heavy underdogs to Fiji who have won gold and run the table in every rugby sevens match at the Olympics since the sport was added in 2016, Dupont and France put together a stunning performance to claim the gold in Tokyo. Fiji, who had won the past two Olympic golds and had not lost a match in the competition since 2016, were finally dethroned by a brilliant French side led by Dupont.

The match was a back-and-forth affair, but France ultimately pulled away in the second half to win 26-21. Dupont was at the heart of everything for France, scoring a try and setting up another. He was also a constant threat with his running and passing, and his leadership was key in France's victory.

Fiji's loss is a major upset, but it is also a testament to the growing strength of rugby sevens around the world. France's victory shows that any team can win on any given day, and it is sure to inspire other nations to challenge Fiji's dominance in the years to come.
