Description

Papua New Guinea made a powerful start to their Qualifying campaign, securing a dominant victory over hosts Tonga with all five of their goals, including doubles from Peter Yagum and Boas Tommy, coming in a blistering first half. Despite a less intense second half plagued by injuries and errors, allowing Tonga to score two late consolation goals through Sitaleki Kautai and Sioeli Veatupu, Papua New Guinea's early onslaught proved decisive in their quest to reach the OFC U-16 Men’s Championship for the first time since 2018.
