Robert Wise and Kini Viliame of the Ba team at Nadi Airport yesterday.
BA soccer officials have heaped praises on the performance of their players after the tough 1-1 draw against AS Temanava of Tahiti on Saturday night in Papeete

The champion Fiji district had to endure a tough encounter before coming away with a 1-1 draw, a result which has seen the side being the leader in Group B of the O League after having earlier beating Marist FC 2-0.

President Rishi Kumar said the host which had six New Caledonia internationals along with a couple of French players played an exceptional brand of football.

"They were skillful and fast and play physical soccer and the passion and competition there is very strong," Kumar said.

"I am proud of the way my players matched them and came away with the draw."

He said the side didn't have the services of Kiniviliame Naika who was ruled out through injury and striker Osea Vakatalesau had to be replaced early after suffering from a knock on the ankle.

"AS Temanava have professional players who used a lot of professional fouls but our players stood up to them," he said.

Skipper Roneel Kumar was on target for the side in the 28th minute and Ba looked on course for its second consecutive victory.

AS Temanava goalkeeper Franck Revel spilled a Ba freekick and Kumar bundled the ball into the back of the net.

AS Temanava rallied creating several chances but were denied by good goalkeeping from Ba goal keeper Laisenia Tuba in a fascinating and dramatic encounter that provided end to end entertainment in front of a parochial home crowd of just over 1500.

Oceania Football reported that Kumar's goal appeared to give Ba ample breathing space in a fast and furious first half as AS Temanava struggling to hold onto a playoff spot in their domestic championship turned in a spirited display despite being unable to penetrate Ba's defence.

With the match flowing from end to end at an unremitting pace and in stifling conditions both teams engaged in a series of raw boned tackles that saw New Zealand referee Peter O'Leary issue a flurry of yellow and red cards that set up a dramatic finish to the evening.

AS Temanava were rewarded for their dogged second half performance with a penalty with just 12 minutes remaining which Jean Francois Kabeu duly converted.

However, the joy was short-lived when substitute Rudolphe Toromona flew into a reckless challenge and was red carded in the 87th minute.

With the home side reduced to 10 men and only having just leveled the match Toromona's red card set up a tense finish as Ba committed players forward seeking to win the game in its dying moments.

However, Ba were soon seeing a red card of their own when Shalen Lal was ordered off after committing his second bookable offence after 94 minutes.

Ba now has control of O-League Group B with four points out of a possible six in both their away fixtures. AS Temanava sit in second spot with one point while Marist FC are third and yet to register a point.

Ba will host Marist FC and AS Temanava at home next month.

Auckland City tops Group A with seven points, having scored eight goals and conceded two. Waitakere United is in second place with four points from two games, scoring eight goals, conceding three with two games to play. AS Mont Dore are bottom of the table having lost all three matches.

The winner of the two pools will play-off in the final.

AS Temanava: Franck Revel, Georges Watton, Daly Watha, Maheanuu Arapari, Weliver Neti Clark (Rudolphe Toromona), Jean Francois Kabeu, Roberto Poiroi (Tevaihau Tehuritaua), Rene Saloa (Heirani Tvereo), Pierre Kugogne, Ael Luc Kugogne, Ionatana Aldo Vahine.

Ba:LaiseniaTuba, Shalen Lal, Roneel Kumar, Jone Vesikula, Keni Doidoi (Ronald Lawrence), Josaia Bukalidi, Robert Wise, Finau Peni, Osea Vakatalesau (Tuimasi Manuca), Malakai Tiwa, Malakai Kenehewe.
