After cruising past Germany in their first game, the Canadian men needed a late try from Matthew Percillier to defeat Chile 19-14 and remain undefeated Saturday at the HSBC World Rugby Sevens Series.
Trailing 14-12, Percillier took a pass from captain Phil Berna to score the winning points.
"We found our footing in the second half," said Percillier, a member of the University of British Columbia Thunderbirds and one of several players making their World Rugby Sevens debut. "If we bring that tempo the whole game, no one is going to keep up with us."
Veterans Andrew Coe and Jake Thiel also scored tries for Canada.
"It was a team performance," said Coe, a member of the team that finished eighth at the Tokyo Olympics. "Any time one of our players fell down or made a mistake, six other guys helped him back up and worked hard for each other."
