Ba pulled off a major needed win after a 3-1 defeat to Rewa yesterday and 0-0 draw against Tavua on day one. #Malakai Kanihewe scored Ba’s first 26th minute in the first half. Navua replied immediately through Joseph Mishra two minutes later. #Both sides launched a series of attack in the second half but it was Peter Hughes who scored the crucial goal for Ba.#The Western giants are now with four points and face Labasa tomorrow with the winner no doubt booking a place in the semi final. Rewa leads pool one with seven points while Tavua is fourth with two points and Navua last without anyone point. #In pool two Nadroga end the day with seven points following a 2-0 win over Savusavu and a draw 1-1 draw against Nadi. #Host Lautoka are in a difficult position as they drew 2-2 with Suva. Lautoka at one stage were leading 2-0 but the Suva side fought back to level the scores. #Lautoka president Shalendra Prasad says his blues side was not up for the challenge.#“The boys did not perform to the expectations we had. We were two goals up at one stage and then we let Suva in the game. We have a game against Nadroga tomorrow and we have to win that match at any cost,” Prasad said. #Lautoka, Suva and Nadi are all with four points each and a match in hand. On the other hand Nadroga just needs a draw to advance to the semi final stage. #Meanwhile Suva’s Esava Naqeleca was awarded the best player of day one while Nadroga’s Eran Underwood the second day. #Full Time: Ba 2 Navua 1#Ba Goals: Malakai Kanihewe 26”; Peter Hughes 31”#Ba Caution: Marika Madigi 55’#Navua Goal: Joseph Mishra 28”#Navua Caution: Seveci Rokotakala 36’; Jesoni Takala 50’#Ba: 1.
