The Extra Supermarket Rewa team, coached by Rodeck Singh, is poised for another strong performance against Mahijibhai Hardware/Calgary Nadi in their second pool match of the Super Premier division at Churchill Park in Lautoka today. This comes after a dominant 7-0 victory over Nadroga in their opening match yesterday.
John Orobulu delivered an outstanding performance, scoring five goals, showcasing his exceptional football skills and significantly contributing to the team’s success. The international player from Solomon Islands set a high bar for the tournament, with his goals coming in the 21st, 25th, 62nd, 77th minutes, and during injury time. The other goals for the Delta Tigers were scored by Asivorosi Rabo in the 30th minute and Epeli Valevou in the 31st minute.
Rewa’s head coach, Rodeck Singh, expressed satisfaction with the team’s strong start. “This is one of the starts we wanted. We knew IDC is one of the big tournaments, and for us to start well is super important. I thank the boys for this start, and I think now we have set a platform for ourselves,” he stated.
Looking forward, Singh emphasized the importance of focusing on their next opponent, Nadi. “We take one game at a time; now we look at how we want to go about business against Nadi, and securing those three points is super important for us as well.”
Rewa’s match against Nadi is scheduled for 6 PM today.
