Tyla King: Black Fern Sevens player on their Olympic Gold Medal win over Canada

The Mike Hosking Breakfast - A podcast by Newstalk ZB

Medal number one for New Zealand at the Paris Olympic Games.   The Black Ferns Sevens have defended the gold medal they won three years ago in Tokyo - beating Canada 19-12 at the Stade de France.  Black Fern Tyla King told Mike Hosking that it’s always hard when you’re up against quality sides, but they knew if they tidied up their plays and kept applying pressure, they would get the job done.  She said that she's so proud of the performances they put in as a team, from day one all the way through to the final.  “We found our flow and we just went out there and played the brand of footy that I know, I knew we were capable of.”  LISTEN ABOVE See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
