Watch New Zealand vs Fiji in a make-or-break Rugby League World Cup 2026 Pool A clash at Cbus Super Stadium, Robina, as the two countries battle for a place in the semi-finals. The equation is simple: the winner goes through to the last four, while the loser goes home.

New Zealand bounced back from their 24-22 defeat by Australia in the tournament opener with an 82-16 rout of the Cook Islands last time out, but they had to fight back after falling 16-12 behind. They soon made their class tell, though, with Jamayne Isaako racking up 38 points – comprising three tries and 13 conversions – to break the record for the most points by a Kiwi player in a single match. They will have to be on their game against a Fiji side who ran Australia close in their second pool match, as Stacey Jones' team look to move one step closer to lifting the World Cup for just the second time.

Fiji may feel that they missed an opportunity to seal their place in the last four, having seen their game against Australia turn on a disallowed second-half try that would have put them 20-12 ahead. They ultimately lost 36-22 in Brisbane but will take plenty of confidence from their performance, especially given the way they dominated the Aussies' pack. The Fijians are aiming to reach the semi-finals for the fourth time in their history but they face an uphill battle, with second-place New Zealand sitting five positions above them in the world rankings.
