Nil-all at halftime, Tailevu Naitasiri ran rampage in the second spell finally hitting the back of the net after numerous chances.
Bainivalu made their opportunities count, deceiving the Suva defenders not once but twice, giving them a sigh of relief.
The results were put beyond doubt in the 89th minute when Kasanita Tabua tapped in a nice cross for a 3-nil final scoreline.
