Rewa Women’s football side’s Digicel Super League campaign started on high with a 2-nil win over Tailevu Naitasiri at ANZ Stadium in Suva today.

The Delta Tigers had a slow start, as Tailevu Naitasiri kept their opponents on their toes.

After half an hour in the humid Suva weather, Fiji national football rep Lora Bukalidi managed to pull one through to give Rewa the much needed lead just before halftime.
