Canada lost to Samoa and Fiji but rallied to defeat Spain in a battle of relegation-threatened rivals Saturday at the HSBC Singapore Sevens.
The Canadian men came to Singapore in 14th place after eight events in the HSBC World Rugby Sevens Series while Spain was 11th.
After Singapore, there are just two stops left on the circuit — Toulouse, France, and London. Both teams are fighting to remain in the World Series given the number of core sides will be reduced to 12 from 16 next season to align with the women's competition and the Olympic field.
The 15th-ranked team following the 10th round in Toulouse will be relegated. The teams ranked 12th, 13th and 14th at the end of Toulouse will enter a four-team relegation playoff together with the Challenger Series 2023 winners in the series finale in London.
