The Nadroga football team, under the guidance of coach Varoon Karan, is preparing to make a strong comeback in their upcoming Extra Premier League (EPL) match against Navua this weekend at the Uprising Sports Centre in Deuba. Following a narrow 2-1 loss to Lautoka last Sunday, team director Navin Kant noted that the defeat provided valuable insights into the expectations they can have for their opponents.
With Navua riding high after a recent 1-0 victory over Suva, Nadroga will be looking to sharpen their finishing skills, an area they have struggled with in recent games. Kant expressed optimism, saying, “I don’t want to say anything more but we will try to build a formidable side for our next game.” He emphasized the importance of cohesion among the players, indicating that they have ample time to work on their combinations in the lead-up to the match.
Currently positioned sixth in the league with 13 points from 10 games, Nadroga aims to improve their standing against Navua, who is close behind in fourth with 15 points. The Stallions feature key players such as Sakeo Taganeca, William Valentine, Vuniuci Tikomaimereke, and Jack Wara and are determined to execute their strategies effectively throughout the entire match.
In the context of their recent performance, this match against Navua is viewed as a pivotal opportunity for Nadroga to seize momentum in the league. As the team reflects on past games, including a significant comeback victory against Suva where they overcame a two-goal deficit, there is a growing sense among fans and players alike that brighter days lie ahead.
Supporters are hopeful that Nadroga’s resilience can carry them to success as they strive to rise in the ranks of Fijian football.
