Ba soccer team defender Malakai Kanahawe is ruled out of this Friday's match against Navua in the CVC series.

Kanahawe has received two yellow cards in previous games against Navua and Lautoka and will have to miss one match.

Fiji FA League Board official Jainen Sukhu said a letter has been written to Ba Football, informing them that Kanahawe will not be able to play.

Kanahawe is one of the top defenders in the Ba side and his absence will surely be missed on Friday.

The loser of Ba versus Navua match will kiss the CVC series goodbye.

The match will be played on Friday 7pm at the tfl National Stadium.
