Ba are desperately after the top spot of the Digicel Premier League. This was after they beat Nadi 3-0 at Prince Charles Park yesterday.

After the resumption of the DPL, Ba have won their two away games.

What happened: Ba used long balls to take play deep into the Nadi half.

Their attacks were initiated by veteran defenders Avinesh Suwamy and Ilimotama Jese.

The Nadi defenders were caught napping in the 32nd minute when Ba broke through the left flank and the cross was headed in by Etonia Dogalau.

Then Ba brought in 17-year-old Nabil Begg to replace Samuela Drudru and Shaneel Narayan for Suwamy.

Halftime: Nadi 0-1 Ba.

Then both teams came out strongly. Ba kept on the pressure as they used the left flank to break through the Nadi defence.

In the 70th minute, a cross from the left flank found an unmarked Nabil Begg who clamly headed in their second goal.

Begg again was fouled in the 85th minute and Emosi Navaba slotted in their third goal.

Nadi: Vereti Dickson, Ashneel Kumar, Chirstopher Kumar, Josua Tawake, Patrick Ralulu, Beniamino Lebatavatava, Shivneel Pillay, Ame Votoniu, Tuiba Batiratu, Vuniuci Tikomaimereke, Sakaraia Naisua.

Ba: Sanaila Waqanicakau, Avinesh Suwamy, Aakash Sharma, Darold Kakasi, Ilimotama Jese, Peceli Sukabula, Emosi Navaba, Samuela Drudru, Etonia Dogalau, Narend Rao, Samuela Navoce.
