The under-17 Tongan men’s football team was no match for the Solomon Islands, and were defeated ten points to one at the 2015 Oceania Football Confederation U-17 (OFC) Championship yesterday in American Samoa.
Ironically, it was Tonga who scored first goal of the match, only fourteen minutes into the game, by team captain and mid-fielder, Soakai Vea.
Tonga still have Tahiti and Vanuatu to look forward to, both are strong soccer playing nations. Tonga will play its last game against American Samoa next Wednesday January 21.
