On an incredible night at The Sevens Stadium in Dubai, Samoa dug deep to tie 13-13 with Belgium and book their 10th straight Rugby World Cup appearance at Rugby World Cup 2027.
It was a bitter disappointment for Belgium who miss out on a place in Australia 2027 on try bonus points after remaining undefeated in the tournament thanks to victories against Namibia and Brazil.
In the earlier match Namibia fought back from 17-0 down to defeat Brazil 40-31 in a high scoring and very entertaining affair to finish third overall.
