Nadi is the first team to qualify for the Vodafone Fiji Fact semifinals after shocking Ba 2-0 in their second pool match at Subrail Park.

Nadi’s Eliki Ravusai opened the account in the first half while Napolioni Qasevakatini made it 2-0 in the second half.

Nadi has 6 points from 2 games to lead pool 1, Rewa is second with 4 points while Ba sits in third place with 1 point.

Rewa just needs a draw against Nadi to qualify while Ba will need to beat Dreketi with a big score line and hope Nadi beats Rewa.

On the other hand, pool 2 is still wide open as all four teams have chance to qualify.

Suva surprised hosts Labasa with a 1-0 win when Madhwan Gounder scored in the 43rd minute of the second half keeping their hopes alive for a semifinal spot.

This was a do or die situation for the Capital side and they did not deter their fans and made sure they stayed in contention.

Lautoka leads pool 2 with 6 points after 2 wins, Labasa is second with 3 points.

Suva also has 3 points after this win but the hosts have a better goal average.

Nadroga has not won a game yet in this pool but if they beat Suva with a good score line and if Lautoka beats Labasa then the Stallions could qualify for the semifinals.

Today's matches will kick off at 12.30pm where Ba will take on Dreketi, followed by Nadroga against Suva at 2.30pm then Rewa will take on Nadi at 4.30pm and the last match of the pool play will see Labasa face Lautoka at 6.30pm.
