Sevens sensation Srinath Sooriyabandara is unlikely to play in tomorrows semi final against Japan due to a ligament strain.
“We are playing without our best player (Soori) and we were unfortunate to lose after leading at half time against Korea 12 – 00. But did superbly to beat a strong Chinese side to enter the semi-final.”
– Asanga Senevirathne, President SLRFU, Caretaker/Coach. (From Korea)
“I think we did well on the first day but the second day was tougher than the first. The team was under pressure but we managed to gain a win and qualify for the semi-finals against Japan. I have a good feeling about tomorrow but we have to give our 100% and more to gain victory” – Fazil Marija, Sri Lanka 7s captain
