One of Fiji's best strikers is rating Ba as the top seed in the Inkk Mobile Battle of the Giants soccer tournament.
Ravuama Madigi who won numerous titles with Ba in the 80's and 90's and was best remembered in the national team for scoring the winning goal in the 1988 World Cup qualifier against Australia, believes the Men in Black have been strengthened with the return of top defender, Malakai Kenahewe and Hekari based Tuimasi Manuca and Alvin Singh.
Madigi who also scored the winning goal for Ba in the 1992 BOG final, said the Men in Black have a coach who reads the opponents's strategies very well.
Ba has been winning the BOG title for the last 4 consecutive years and will be going for a fifth year in a row.
The Men in Black open their BOG campaign against Rewa at 4.30pm this Sunday at TFL National stadium and you can catch the live commentary on our sister station, Radio Sargam.
