July 26, 2012 3:48 am

Suva couldn’t ask for a better win then to beat Navua 4-nil in the first match on Day Two of the Inkk Mobile Battle of the Giants at Churchill Park.

A brilliant header from Samuela Drudru in the second spell put the final nail in the coffin for Navua.

This is so far the biggest score margin in the tournament.

Suva striker, Sanni Issa opened the floodgates after scoring from a penalty kick in the 27th minute to put the Whites up 1-nil.

He later earned a double with Leone Damudamu scoring the third goal.

Next up, Labasa takes on Nadroga and a win for the Babasiga Lions will see it become the first team to qualify for the semi-finals.

The official opening takes place at 6pm before defending champions Rewa meets Ba at 6.30pm.

The feature match of the day sees hosts Lautoka taking on Nadi at 8.30pm.

Suva, Navua, Nadroga and Rewa are all in danger of bowing out of the tournament if they lose today.

On the other hand, Labasa, Ba, Lautoka and Nadi could cement their place in the semi-final with their second win in the tournament.
