Navua have turned the tables after losing to Nadi 4-1 in their first match yesterday

The Koromakawa Rentals and Tours Navua team has beaten Lautoka 3-1 in their second group match of the Punjas BOG tournament.

Apisai Smith scored the second goal in the 25th minute of play while Thomas Dunn scored the third goal.

Goal scorer Thomas Dunn says they have to work on a plan to defeat Rewa now.

Navua coach Shafil Mohammed on the other hand says the players have done him proud with their adherence to the plan.

Kolinio Sivoki scored the lone goal for Lautoka.

Lautoka’s Sekove Finau was also given a red card in the match for using his hand to stop the ball from going into Lautoka’s goalmouth.
