The Galea Cup was replaced as the season
opening competition by the new knockout,
the G.F.A. Cup. Għajnsielem took the
lead in the last edition of the Galea
Cup when Pawlu Debono's shot took a
deflection and beat Calypsians'
goalkeeper 16 minutes into the match.
The Blacks tried to build on their lead
but were thwarted by the Calypsians'
defence. In the 25th minute of the
second half Victor Mercieca scored
following some confusion in the Blacks'
penalty area. The Blacks had Teddy Grech
sent off in extra-time but even though
they were a man short they never looked
like conceding. The Blacks won the Cup
on penalties. |
