BINAN CITY, Laguna\u00a0\u2014 Kaya Iloilo subdued Fiji, 3-2, in a special club-versus-nationals match-up at the Binan Football Stadium here on Saturday.<\/p>\n

Iloilo went off to a good start, which was enough to hold off Fiji that once again threatened in the second half, two days after doing so against the Azkals.<\/p>\n

Just after the opening kickoff, Iloilo got into the scoreboard as Alfred Osei found the net for a close-range shot in the second minute.<\/p>\n

Jovin Bedic made it 2-0 with a 33rd minute strike as Iloilo seemed to be in control of the first half.<\/p>\n

Remuera, however, made the match interesting as he scored off a corner in the 48th minute to put Fiji on the board.<\/p>\n

The national team actually became more aggressive in the second half but could not find the equalizer.<\/p>\n

Connor Tacagni eventually kept Fiji at bay with an 82nd minute dagger goal for Iloilo. Dave Radrigai scored a consolation goal for Fiji in the second minute of stoppage time.<\/p>\n

Both teams are using the match as a tune-up for their respective stints.<\/p>\n

Iloilo is currently on a month-off as its next Philippine Football League match will be on April 4, while Fiji is doing early preparations for next year’s Pacific Games.<\/p>\n
