Fiji Pearls Captain Maria Lutua commends her team’s exceptional defence against Zimbabwe in Game Two of the Netball World in Cape Town, South Africa.
Coach Una Rokoura’s reminder to focus on their own job proved effective, resulting in a shift in momentum after the half-time break.
Lutua says when they returned from the break the players came out stronger as they pushed for the victory.

“Focus on our own job and make sure we keep our centre passes and if there’s a turnover we keep that and bring it to our shooters safely.”
Lutua highlights the crucial role played by their defenders in keeping the opponents at bay.
