New Zealand based Fiji soccer players, Roneel Kumar and Salesh Kumar, arrived in the country this morning, which is seen as a relief to coach Carlos Buzetti.

Both Salesh and Roneel are part of the final 20-man team to the Pacific Games in Samoa.

Their arrival means that New Zealand based defender Petero Dauniseka and Ba midfielder Avinesh Swamy have been dropped from the squad.

Fiji plays Tuvalu in their opening match of the soccer competition at 2pm Fiji Time on Sunday.
