One of the most prolific Fijian strikers, Osea Vakatalesau is back in camp with the Lautoka soccer team for yet another OFC Champions League campaign.

The former sprinter of Natabua High School is making a comeback after being out of action for nearly a season.

33-year-old Vakatalesau who is a former player of Ba, Amicale FC and Hekari United made his debut for Fiji in 2005 and since then has been a top marksman.

The highest goal scorer of the 2007 Pacific Games is training well for the last few weeks and is all set to combine with Benjamin Totori, Bong Kalo and Samuela Drudru in Lautoka's attack.

Lautoka will face Papua New Guinea’s club FC Morobe Wawens in their first group match of the 2019 OFC Champions League.

The match will start at 4pm this Sunday at Churchill Park and you can catch the live commentary on our sister station, Radio Sargam.
