FRIENDS turned foes once again. That’s the tale for Bula FC and Tahiti United when former Rewa striker Tevita Waranivalu meets his fellow Fijian players in round four of the OFC Pro League.

Waranivalu has been with the Tahiti side since the season began and has helped his team advance into the Pro League.

He and Bula FC meet once more after doing so in round one where the latter was beaten 1-0 in round two at the PNG Football Stadium in Port Moresby.

The Rewa FC coach and player’s inclusion into the Tahitian side meant he would become the first Fijian player to feature for the club in the OFC Pro League.

Meanwhile, Bula FC has a busy schedule this weekend and into the week as they head to the Solomon Islands for round four.

Bula FC meets Tahiti United this Sunday at 8pm and South Island United on Thursday at 4pm, with both matches taking place at the National Sports Stadium in Honiara.
