The Labasa soccer team has created the first upset of the National Soccer League with a 1-nil win against Navua at home this afternoon.

Backed by the support of home fans the Babasiga boys played their hearts out to deny a star studded Navua side with a chance to equalize.

Navua had the likes of former Labasa rep Maciu Dunadamu leading the side with Ben Aminio, Pene Erenio, Praneel Chand and Seveci Rokotakala, but could not break the Labasa defence.

Labasa for this season is coached by former rep Epeli Levaci who celebrated his first win today with a mixture of youth and experienced players.

Other games played today, Nadroga and Ba are tied 1 all in the first half of the game at Govind Park.

Last night defending champions Lautoka opened their season with a 5-1 win against Nadi.

Tomorrow at 1.30pm Tavua will take on Nasinu while at 4pm Suva will face Rewa and live commentary of this game can be heard on our sister radio station Radio Sargam.
