But Nadroga looked a better side into the second spell as they worked to capitalize on every opportunity.

But the Tavua defense stood tall holding the Johnny Williams coached side at bay.

It wasn’t until the 64th minute that Taniela Raubula broke through Tavua’s defense line to score the lone and winning goal.

Head Coach Johnny Williams says beating a team that has experienced top level football is never easy.

Nadroga meets rivals Bua tomorrow while Tavua takes on Nadogo.
