Dreketi upset Lautoka

October 8, 2015 4:50 am

The Dreketi football side caused a major boil-over in the Courts Inter District Championship after beating Lautoka 2-1 at Govind Park.

Lautoka were the favorites and needed at least a draw to secure a semi-final spot but the Northerners had other ideas.

Sanaila Waqanicakau scored the opening goal for Dreketi in the 30th minute before Kelvin Prasad equalized for the Blues 2 minutes from halftime as the two sides went into the break leveled at 1-all.

Prolific goal-scorer, Peni Sokia scored his third goal of the tournament for the underdogs in the second half to extend Dreketi’s lead, 2-1, which they held onto until the final whistle.
