Digicel Fiji U20 National Team head coach Robert Mims says their first game is important and the sooner they get points the better it is.

Mims says the team has trained well for the past two days and is ready to tackle Slovakia in the FIFA U20 World Cup in Argentina.

He also says he is pleased with the team's preparation.

Mims encourages fans to enjoy watching the young men play as they do an honest job and look forward to doing well for Fiji and making fans proud.

Fiji will play Slovakia on at 9am Sunday.
