Takuvaine has succeeded against Arorangi in the Lotto Premier Men’s match on Saturday, winning 3-1.
Arorangi took the lead through young Luke Tukaroa with a penalty in the first half. But it was for a short while as Takuvaine came back to equalise before the half time whistle.
Takuvaine regrouped at half time and came in second half to win the match with another two goals scored to earn three points.
