Fiji have been thumped 11-1 by Malaysia in their final pool match at the Hockey World League Round 2 event in Bangladesh.

The top seeds Malaysia raced to a 2-0 lead after three minutes and already had five goals on the board before Jerome Edwards managed Fiji's solitary strike.

It completes a tough few days for the Fiji men, who were beaten 7-0 by Oman and 5-1 by hosts Bangladesh in their other pool matches.

Fiji will face China in the quarter finals, who beat Sri Lanka 5-1 to finish top of Pool B.
