Digicel Baby Bula Boys Coach Sunil Kumar says centre back Delon Shankar has an injury but he should be good before meeting Tahiti.

He says Vilikesa Vosagaga is still in doubt.

Kumar says there are no other major injuries.

He says they have designed a plan to counter Tahiti after watching them play.

The coach also says the boys had a dream to go to Peru, but after the loss to New Zealand Under 17 their morale is low.

Kumar adds they have spoken to the boys that they have one more game to go and this is not the end.

Fiji will take on Tahiti in the bronze medal play off at 4 this afternoon at the HFC Bank Stadium.

Meanwhile, New Caledonia will face New Zealand in the final at 7 tonight.

Both New Zealand and New Caledonia have qualified for the FIFA U-17 World Cup in Peru in November this year.
