Rewa’s head coach, Priyant Manu, is urging fans to rally in strong numbers for their pivotal match against Labasa this afternoon at Ratu Cakobau Park in Nausori. This encounter, part of the Pillay Garment Champion Versus Champion series, is particularly critical as Labasa has long been a formidable rival for Rewa, amplifying the competitive tension surrounding the event.
Manu noted that both teams have recently experienced the loss of senior players to Bula FC, Fiji’s inaugural professional club now competing in the OFC Pro League. This player shift introduces an intriguing dynamic as both squads adapt to changes in their rosters.
“We know what to expect from Labasa. We have been working hard, and we want to make our fans and supporters proud. So please come out in numbers and cheer for the boys,” Manu said, emphasizing the vital role of supporter presence in motivating his younger squad.
The Rewa team has invested considerable effort in their training as they brace for this challenge, and Manu is optimistic about their readiness. As the highly anticipated match kicks off at 3 PM today, the team is eager to demonstrate their preparation on the field. Manu’s appeal for fan support reflects the team’s unity and determination to deliver a performance that resonates with their loyal supporters. This match is not just a contest but a chance for the team to forge a deeper connection with their fans and showcase their dedication.
