The New Zealand All Blacks and Fiji Flying Fijians are set to make history as they clash for the first time on American soil. 

The match will take place at Snapdragon Stadium in San Diego on July 19.

This is also the first meeting between these rugby powerhouses on neutral ground, but it's significant beyond that - it's a litmus test, as the United States prepares to host the Men’s and Women’s Rugby World Cups in 2031 and 2033, respectively.

New Zealand, currently ranked No. 3 in the world, faces off against Fiji, ranked No. 10.

Despite seven previous test matches, the Flying Fijians have yet to defeat the All Blacks. Their last encounter took place in 2021. Now, on American turf, both teams aim to leave their mark in rugby history
