The Fiji 5-a-side soccer team coach Intiaz Khan believes there is no pressure on his side as they prepare for their first match in the Oceania Futsal soccer championship which gets underway tonight at the Vodafone Arena in Suva.

Khan said the Fiji squad is very young and arguably less experienced than their more fancied oppositions New Caledonia, Solomon’s and Vanuatu.

Fiji will therefore go into this year's championship as underdogs and Khan believes this could work in their favour.

Fiji finished 5th out of seven Oceania nations in last year's championship but they are hoping for a better finish this year.

Their opening match will be against Vanuatu today at 6pm.
