Description

Powered by a brace each from twins Aronui and Aroarii Bennett, Tahiti ended their Group A campaign with a victory over the Cook Islands. The Bennett brothers were instrumental early, with a combined three goals in the first 25 minutes and Aronui Bennett completed his double late in the match. Tiaitau Vauquelin also scored for Tahiti, who will now play for fifth place. The win maintains Tahiti's streak of securing at least one victory in every tournament since 2009. The Cook Islands, whose semifinal hopes were dashed by the early onslaught, will compete for seventh place.
