Debutant Sunny Deol was the savior for the Navua football side when they came from behind to draw 1-all against Tailevu Naitasiri in round 14 of the Digicel Premier League at Ratu Cakobau Park on Sunday.
Epeli Valevou netted the first goal of the match following a cross from Mohammed Naizal in the 14th minute.
Navua goalkeeper Viliame Rakuro came charging out of the box but couldn’t stop Valevou who didn’t have to do much with an unguarded goal.

After a number of attempts, Deol who came off the bench made an impact by netting the equalizer.
