Two late goals in extra time see’s Suva claim third spot in the 2020 Vodafone Women’s IDC after beating Rewa 2-0 at the ANZ Stadium yesterday.
After a scoreless 90 minutes in the heat, the Capital City side scored a goal on either side of extra time through striker Viniana Riwai and pairing Jijilia Dugucanavanua.
Suva coach Inosi Cava said although they were unlucky to get into the final two, walking away with third place was better than nothing.
“We left it a bit late, but the girls got the win in the end.” Suva walked away with $700 prize-money and Rewa with $300.
