The National U-17 soccer team has lost another match in the OFC U-17 championship in New Zealand.

Fiji went down to New Zealand 1-0 this afternoon at the North Harbour stadium.

Fiji applied pressure from the opening whistle but the New Zealanders played smart and managed to find the net in the 9th minute of second half.

Our National side now has slim chance of making to the finals with only one game in hand which will be against Vanuatu on Friday.

Fiji earlier lost to Papua New Guinea 2-1 and won against American Samoa 9-0 in the first match.
