Veteran Samuela Kautoga has played an instrumental role in Rewa’s run to the semi-finals of the OFC Men’s Champions League in Tahiti.

Kautoga bagged a brace of goals for the Delta Tigers in the 3-2 win over Hekari United yesterday to close out Rewa’s group-stage fixtures in style.

Rewa coach Rodeck Singh says he will continue to lean on the leadership of players like Kautoga as they feature in their first-ever OFC Champions League semi-final appearance.

“He is a warrior for us, his age keeps rising but he continues to fight for us. The two goals he scored for us just reaffirms that he is a warrior for us.”

Rewa finished with seven points in Group A alongside defending champions Auckland City, which thumped Solomon Warriors 5-0 yesterday.
