Match Info

Papua New Guinea ended their OFC Men's Nations Cup campaign with a 2-1 victory over Samoa in a Group B match on June 22, 2024. This win provided a positive finish for PNG after a difficult tournament, while Samoa concluded with another heavy defeat. The match process saw Papua New Guinea establish a lead, which they held onto despite a Samoa fightback that produced a consolation goal, securing all three points for the hosts. The key incident was PNG's ability to see out the game under pressure, showing improvement from their earlier heavy loss. The result had little impact on the final Group B table, as both teams were already eliminated, but it allowed PNG to finish on a high note. Post-match, the PNG coach would have been pleased with the response and the win, while Samoa's manager looked to the future after a challenging competition. The starting XIs gave minutes to squad players as both teams played for pride in their final match.
