DUBAI: The curtain came down on Sunday at the Emirates Dubai 7s with New Zealand achieving the HSBC SVNS men’s and women’s double, while fans were also treated to live music performances from DJs EZ and Fisher. The conclusion of the opening leg of the HSBC SVNS Series 2025-26 was all about Australia and New Zealand as the two rugby giants collided in both the finals. New Zealand had secured their place in the men’s showdown courtesy of a thrilling 24-21 victory over Fiji, last year’s tournament winners, but it was far more comfortable for Australia, who beat France 14-0.
