The Digicel Baby Bula Boys are into the quarter final of the OFC Under 17 Championship after beating Tonga 3-0 at the HFC Bank Stadium.

Jacob Seninawanawa scored in the 7th minute of the match and gave the team an early lead.

Fiji's Sailimone Ravonokula was shown a red card at the end of the first half after a scuffle had broken out.

He became the first player to be sent from the field in the entire tournament.

Fiji led 1-0 at half time.

Ibraheem Afazal scored Fiji's second goal in the 49th minute while William Khan sealed it through his 90th minute goal.

Delon Shankar received the player of the match award.

Coach Sunil Kumar was rewarded on his birthday, however he also got the gift of a yellow card in the second half.

The match was delayed by 45 minutes due to heavy rain in Suva.

Both sides now await the outcome of the quarter-final draw.
