Description
Vanuatu United delivered a commanding performance to defeat the Solomon Kings, securing their second consecutive win and moving level on points with the league's top four. Despite Solomon Kings entering the match with the best defensive record, Vanuatu controlled the game from the start, opening the scoring in the first half with a spectacular direct corner kick from William Cardona. Bill Kaltack doubled the advantage early in the second half with a stunning low volley, capping off relentless offensive pressure that also saw three additional Vanuatu goals ruled out by VAR for offside. Solomon Kings struggled to mount a consistent response with their best effort coming from substitute Rafa Lea'i hitting the post in the final seconds, cementing a well-deserved victory for Vanuatu.
