Rewa 5 (5)
Try: Esala Vaketau | Red Card: Esala Vaketau
Nadi 13 (3)
Tries: Vatemo Ravouvou, Penaia Naweilulu | Penalty: Vatemo Ravouvou 

Rewa’s losing streak in the Digicel Cup Competition continues as Nadi defeated them 15–5 at Burebasaga grounds in Rewa this afternoon. 

The brutal encounter saw both teams, who sit at the bottom of the table, go for each other from the opening whistle, keeping a modest crowd totally entertained. 

Playing on home ground, it was the Rewans who won the battle of attrition with Jetsetters No.8 Manoa Qoro taken from the field in a stretcher ten minutes after kick off. 

And it was the hosts who also opened the scoring when a simple ball handling error by Nadi gave Rewa wing Mikaele Kurusiga the opportunity to burst through a gap in the Nadi defense, off loading to captain Esala Vakatekau who scored in the left hand corner. Full Back Semiti Raikuna’s attempt at conversion was unsuccessful. 

Nadi’s only points in the first half came from a penalty kick by fly half Vatemo Ravouvou. The hosts led at half time 5–3. 

The second half saw a revived Nadi team come back firing with a try to Ravouvou six minutes after the breather which he was unable to convert. 

Fatigue and frustration crept into the Rewan side which left them with no choice but to defend whatever possession and territory came their way as the Jetsetters dominated play. 

Indiscipline and a scuffle between the two sides saw the host’s captain Vakatekau sent off with a red card after he punched a Nadi player. Nadi having the last say in the match with a try to wing Penaia Naweilulu which went unconverted. Nadi winning their second match in this year’s Digicel Cup Competition 13-5.
