Team Fiji men’s soccer players, Kolinio Sivoki and Sakaraia Naisua have been dropped from the squad for the Rio Olympics for disciplinary reasons.

National soccer team director Tarunesh Reddy says the players left camp and went on a drinking spree on Friday.

Reddy says the two players are indefinitely suspended from all levels of soccer and will have to appear before Fiji Football Disciplinary Committee and adds they will not tolerate any form of indiscipline from anyone.

Joseph Turagabeci has been brought into the squad and Fiji will now take a 17 member squad to Rio.

The team is back in camp and is injury free.

Fiji will play their first ever soccer game at the Olympics against Korea Republic on August 5th at 11am.
