The return of Solomon Warriors to the Telekom S-League in the Solomon Islands was met with great anticipation and excitement among football fans in the country. After their participation in the OFC Champions League, where they represented the Solomon Islands on a regional level, the team was back on home soil to regroup and resume their campaign in TSL. The match against the formidable Henderson Eels at Lawson Tama Stadium proved to be a crucial test for the Warriors.
Under the guidance of coach Franco Ne’e, Solomon Warriors showcased their determination and skill on the pitch. In a tightly contested game, they emerged victorious with a significant 2-0 win over the Henderson Eels. The outcome was largely influenced by two crucial goals scored in the second half of the match.
In the 50th minute, Tigi Molea, one of the key players for the Warriors, found the back of the net, breaking the deadlock and giving his team the lead. The goal injected renewed energy and confidence into the Warriors’ lineup. Building on this momentum, Milton Taolo, a recent signing from Isabel United, made an immediate impact by scoring another goal just six minutes later, in the 56th minute. These two goals proved to be decisive in securing the victory for Solomon Warriors.
The win over the strong team of Henderson Eels marked a successful return for the Warriors in the Telekom S-League. It demonstrated their ability to compete at a high level despite their focus on the regional tournament, the OFC Champions League. The victory not only boosted the team’s morale but also showcased their determination to defend their Telekom S-League title.
Although the Warriors still had two matches left to play in order to catch up with the other teams in the league, their primary focus had been on the regional tournament. Now, with a strong performance and an important win under their belt, the Warriors could shift their attention back to the domestic league with renewed confidence.
