Naitasiri fullback Etonia Rokotuisawa produced man of the match performance as the Highlanders came from behind to beat Nadroga 25-22 in the semifinal of the Skipper Cup at Ratu Cakobau Park this afternoon.

Rokotuisawa kicked a penalty in the extra time to seal the win after both teams were locked at 22-22 at full time.

Nadroga was leading 10-6 in the first half with a try from number 8 Joji Kunavula and a penalty from fullback Jack Volavola.

Naitasiri made a comeback in the second half with a try from flyhalf Kini Douglas and six penalties from Rokotuisawa.

Naitasiri will now meet Nadi in the final next week.

The last time Nadi hosted Naitasiri in the Skipper Cup final was in 2007.
