Nadi’s football team achieved a hard-fought 2-1 victory against Suva during an exciting Digicel Premier League match at Ratu Cakobau Park on Sunday. Under the leadership of Viroon Karan, who took on the role of coach, Nadi demonstrated their determination and resilience to secure three crucial points.
Karan commended his team’s performance while also noting there is room for further improvement. “The performance was good, and we got a favorable result in the end. We aimed to win this game and executed our plan well. Hats off to the boys for their great overall performance,” he stated.
Looking back at the match, Karan identified areas where the team could have been more effective. “In the finishing phase, we need to score more to win games. Although we achieved the result, we could have scored a few more but missed several opportunities.”
This victory is significant for Nadi in a season marked by fluctuating performances. Karan emphasized the importance of consistency in maintaining their form. “That is what we are going to focus on next year—maintaining consistency in our games and securing wins. We can’t afford to be inconsistent.”
As the league campaign approaches its end, Nadi has set its sights on the upcoming prestigious Inter District Championship (IDC) taking place in two weeks. Preparations are already in progress as Karan and the team shift their focus to this important tournament.
Despite experiencing ups and downs throughout the season, Nadi is now ready to make an impact in the IDC tournament and finish the year on a high note.
