Suva coach, Tuka Tisam was not impressed with the draw, but says a point is better than none.

”It wasn’t the result we came for but the last minute goal was the savior. We have one more match tomorrow and that will be very important. Now we will go back and will have to be prepared for the match against Rakiraki.”

The draw puts Nadi on four points while Suva has a point.

Labasa that plays Rakiraki next has three points while the latter is yet to register a point.
