Bula FC and Vanuatu United FC arrived in Port Moresby this afternoon ahead of their matches this weekend in R2 of the OFC Pro League fixtures at the Santos National Football Stadium.

Bula FC captain Roy Krishna who scored Bula FC's first-ever goal in Round 1 of the OFC Pro League, said the Fijian side is looking forward to getting started in Round 2 in Port Moresby as they go up against Solomon Kings FC this Sunday.

He said, “The boys are ready and looking forward to a good round 2.”

Speaking after returning to the country following the FIFA World Cup qualifiers, Krishna said it was good to be back, despite the challenges of playing in Papua New Guinea.

He noted that the team is well prepared and hopeful for good weather conditions during the upcoming matches.

Krishna described Bula FC’s Pro League experience so far as positive, highlighting the energy and confidence of the squad.

He said the team may be young, but the players have shown maturity and experience in the way they play football.

“The experience has been good. We have a young squad, and you can see we play football although we are young and we have the experience.”

The Bula FC skipper also emphasized that the team remains focused on football, choosing not to be distracted by off-field matters.

He said the players are committed to following their game plan and giving their best performance on the field.

Looking ahead to their clash against Solomon Kings, Krishna acknowledged the strength of the opposition, noting that many of their players are familiar from the national team setup.

However, he stressed that Bula FC’s focus will be on their own performance to achieve a positive result.

Krishna also called on supporters in Port Moresby to come out in large numbers, describing fans as the team’s “12th man.”

He thanked supporters back home and asked them to continue keeping the team in their prayers as they compete in the Pro League.
