Tonga’s 35-21 Rugby World Cup victory over Namibia was fuelled by the cheekiest food known to man.
Mana Otai’s men recorded their first victory of the World Cup this week which lifts them to second place in Pool C.
And it’s been revealed that the secret ingredient in their campaign has been frequent trips to Nandos.

The Pacific Island team visited Exeter’s Nandos ten days in a row to get their hankering for Peri-Peri taken care of.
The restaurant posted a number of pictures of the Tongan players tucking into a bit of spicy chicken throughout the week but they will have to wave goodbye to the staff as their next game takes place in Leicester against Argentina.
The lads were so satisfied with their feed that they even signed a jersey to be displayed in the restaurant.
