Australian women advance to sevens semis in Madrid

The Australian women's sevens team have advanced to the SVNS grand final in Spain after an unbeaten run through the pool matches.

Maddison Levi added to her stunning try-scoring record this season with a first-half hat-trick against Fiji before a further four tries in Australia's 28-14 victory over France helped Tim Walsh's side advance to the final four.

The Australians will meet arch-rivals New Zealand in a blockbuster semi-final on Sunday (1933 AEST), with the winners to take on either Canada or France in the decider.

"The French always bring it to us physically so we know when we come up against those teams we have to show up because we are a smaller team," said Levi.
