virsliga fabrice ondoas rigas strengthen title claims with important away win

Rigas Futbola Skola have reemphasized their latest title search in the Latvian Premier League with a hard-fought 2-1 win away to Valmiera this Friday afternoon at the Vidzemes Olimpiskais centrs.

Cameroon keeper, Ondoa played a telling role to secure the match day 29 win but Janis Ikaunieks grabbed the headlines as he converted two first-half penalties to ensure the visitors leave Valmiera with all three points.

Janis beat Davis Oss from the spot just 13 minutes into the contest after a careless challenge in the box handed the initiative to the visitors. Another penalty goal just before the interval made it a tall order for the host.

Though Congolese forward Jason Bahamboula halfed the deficit after the interval the visitors sealed their defensive formation with the help of Ondoas experience which ensured they defended resolutely till the end.

With the visitors seeking the assurance goal, coach Viktors Morozs of Rigas Futbola Skola brought in Cameroonian forward Rostand Ndjiki in place of Cedric Kouadio with just around 30 minutes of regulation time left on the clock.
