Rio 2016: Fiji rugby sevens team returns home to national celebrations

Thousands of fans lined the flag-bedecked streets of Nadi on Sunday to catch a glimpse of their idols as the team made their way from the airport to an official welcome at a packed Prince Charles Park.

Media player: "Space" to play, "M" to mute, "left" and "right" to seek.

The players, wearing their gold medals round their necks, were introduced to the ecstatic crowd as "the greatest rugby sevens team in the world".
