Asia Rugby U20 Women’s Sevens

Hong Kong men with third successive U20s Sevens title

25 August, 2019 in News, ARU20 Sevens Men by Asia Rugby

Hong Kong U20s won the Asia Rugby men’s Sevens title for a third successive year with a 26-14 victory over Chinese Taipei in the final.

Luke Rae-Howard and Harry Laidler both crossed for impressive tries in the first-half, before Rae-Howard added two more to grab a hat-trick before the half-time hooter.

Han-Zheng Zhao and Yu-Hung Liu gave Chinese Taipei a glimmer of hope in the second half, but Hong Kong’s impressive opening seven minutes did the damage.

Rae-Howard scored 21 points in the win, leaving him as the tournament’s top points scorer with 55. Laider’s first-half try meant he finished as the joint leading try scorer across the weekend with seven alongside Rae-Howard.

It was a fitting end to an enthralling weekend with Hong Kong the only side to win all five of their matches in Laos.

Earlier Rae-Howard scored twice for Hong Kong in their 17-0 victory over Thailand in the second semi-final after Liu scored two tries as Chinese Taipei beat Singapore 19-7

Thailand finished third with a 17-5 win over Singapore with tries for Artit Prerawaorasakul, Panarito Boonsnong and Supakan Netkham while after a disappointing day one, Malaysia impressed on day two to win the Plate.

The Young Hibiscus scored a total of 160 points on day two, conceding just 14 including beating Laos 53-0 in the Plate semi-final and Korea 57-14 in the final.

Shafiq Ikmal Ibrahim and Shah Izwan Nordin both scored hat-tricks against Korea taking their try tally for the day, and the weekend, to six each.

Uzbekistan recorded their first win of the weekend by beating Laos 26-5 to finish seventh overall thanks to two tries from Sirojbek Rakhmonov.
