Junior Bula Boys head coach Ronil Lal says they have only two days to plan for the Junior All Whites.

“It will be difficult, it won’t be easy so planning is very important. We’ve got two days, we’ll see what we can do in those two days.”

Lal also thanked the player’s families and fans as well as the Fiji Football Association for their support towards the team.

Nabil Begg scored Fiji’s winning goal against New Caledonia.
