The result means that pool two is now wide open with all five teams in contention of making the semifinals on Monday.
Nadi bounced back in style after their day one 2-0 loss to Suva to topple Lautoka.
Their coach Lambert Sarju says the victory over Labasa was a perfect one to get back in contention.
“A changed Nadi team played against Lautoka,” Sarju said.
“We have gained three points and are now looking forward to our remaining matches.”
In pool two earlier today Nadroga upset Suva 2-1.Former national futsal rep Eran Underwood was on target as he struck twice in the first spell. Apisai Smith pulled on back for Suva just before the break.
Nadroga, Suva, Lautoka and Nadi all have a win each while Savusavu having played only one match is on the bottom but three matches remaining.
In Pool One a win for Rewa tomorrow against Tavua would no doubt book them a place in the semi final.
Rewa claimed their second victory by thumping defending champions Ba 3-1. The Solomons magic worked as James Naka scored from the spot and later George Lui added the second.
Naka was brought down by Ba defender Manueli Kalou in the box and was sent off by the referee.
Joshua Wilson struck the final nail in the coffin in the second half. Peter Hughes got a consaltion goal for Ba.
Labasa also is back on track as Maciu Dunadamu’s penalty gifted them a 1-0 victory over Navua.
