The match took place at the HFC Bank Stadium in Suva, marking a momentous occasion not only for the team but also for the Fiji Police Force, which is celebrating its 150th anniversary this year.

Coach Solomone Nute praised his team’s commitment and hard work during the match, highlighting young player Ponipate Tuberi for his exceptional performance that garnered him the man of the match award. This recognition reflects the growth and potential of the younger players within the team.

On the other hand, Army captain John Muller expressed disappointment over the close loss, noting that they had significant opportunities to clinch the victory but fell short.
