Ba’s futsal team continued to assert its dominance in the Western playoffs with a hard-fought 2-1 victory over Rakiraki. The Men in Black demonstrated their determination from the start, showing solidity in defense and quick transitions during counter-attacks.
Epeli Lairoti broke the deadlock with a powerful strike, which was soon followed by Shaif Ali doubling Ba’s lead after a swift attacking move that caught the Rakiraki defense off guard. The match was marked by the unexpected but inspiring debut of former Ba Football Club interim board president, Dr. Diva Singh, who brought a fresh sense of leadership to the court.
This victory enhances Ba’s position in the Western playoffs, reiterating their potential to be strong contenders in the tournament moving forward. Fans are encouraged by the team’s resilience and strategy on the pitch, which suggests promising prospects for their future matches.
Ba’s recent performances, especially after a stunning 9-0 win against Savusavu in a previous championship, indicate their capacity to maintain momentum and performance under pressure. As players like Epeli Lairoti and Shaif Ali continue to thrive, Ba’s future looks bright as they aim to build on this victory in upcoming encounters.
