The Digicel Fiji Young Kulas faced a tough challenge in their second match at the FIFA U-20 Women’s World Cup in Colombia, suffering a 0-9 defeat against a strong Canadian team.
Despite showing resilience similar to their earlier match against Brazil, the Canadian team proved too powerful. Canada dominated the game, leading 7-0 by halftime.
Fifteen-year-old Fijian goalkeeper Aliana Vakaloloma emerged as a highlight, making several crucial saves despite the overwhelming scoreline. Meanwhile, Fiji’s defense, although determined, struggled to cope with the relentless Canadian offense.
The Fiji Young Kulas will now shift their focus to their final group stage match against France.
