Playing a first game in any major soccer tournament is always tough.
This is a view of Navua soccer president Anil Sharma.
He said players always find it hard in their opening match as it takes time for them to settle down.
Sharma said in tournaments teams play 60 minutes soccer and no one can be under estimated.
Navua's opening match is against Nasinu and Sharma said they can pose a threat to them.
Navua may go into the match against Nasinu with all local based players, because so far they haven't received the ITC of their overseas based players.
Navua who is the defending champions and going for a hat-trick this year will play Nasinu on Sunday at 3pm at the tfl National Stadium.
