Falcons new boy Filipo Levi was again on the winning side, as Samoa defeated Tonga 27-13 in Tuesday's IRB Pacific Nations Cup clash in Lautoka.

Levi started at lock for the Samoans as they claimed their second victory of the tournament, hot on the heels of Thursday's triumph over Japan.

Tonga, meanwhile, are still searching for their first win of the competition, following defeats to Fiji and Samoa, with the Tonga squad containing Falcons summer signing, Josh Afu.
