The second half started with a bang with an individual brilliance by substitute Qauia who outclassed the Whites goalkeeper to place the ball comfortably into the net.

While the home crowd loved every minute of the goal, Verenaisi Uluinasau gave them something more to celebrate with a second goal to the Stallions.

Uluinasau took advantage of a miss communication between the Suva defenders and their goalkeeper intercepting the pass and converting their second goal.

Nadroga goalkeeper Tiliya Waqari kept Suva at bay causing frustration to the strikers as she denied them various chances to score.
