New Zealands quest for a third straight World Rugby Sevens Series tournament triumph was ended on Saturday as they fell 14-7 to South Africa in a the quarter-finals in Las Vegas. Seabelo Senatla scored two first-half tries to give South Africa a 14-0 lead at the interval.Lewis Ormond reduced the deficit with a try for New Zealand in the second half, but they were unable to find another.

Quade Cooper scores his first try in the World Sevens Series with a trademark step and offload. New Zealand, who came into the fifth stop in the 10-tournament series following wins in Wellington and Sydney, saw their hopes start to unravel with a shock 22-0 loss to Kenya in their final pool match on Saturday.Getting one over on the big boys is exciting for us, Kenyas Collins Injera said, after the upset gave them a perfect pool record.But there was heartache in store as the United States delighted their home fans with a 26-14 quarter-final win over the Kenyans.It was important for me and the team that we came out and we made a statement in front of our home crowd, said US coach Mike Friday.

Weve only got 10 fit players and theyre hanging in there and they are working hard for one another.The US earned a semi-final clash with powerful Fiji, who overwhelmed Japan 43-7 in a dominant performance that featured seven tries - two of them from Jasa Veremalua.Japan had booked their first Cup quarter-final in almost a year with a 26-19 win over Scotland.But they were out-classed by Fiji, who opened the defence of their series title with a win in Dubai and are the defending Las Vegas champions.Watch the Las Vegas Sevens on Sky Sports 5 HD at 6.20pm on Sunday.
