Unpredictable
Blacks
March

Ghajnsielem shrugged off the disappointing loss to Qala St. J. with a
gutsy, unexpected 3-1 win over 3rd place, and championship hopefuls,
Kercem Ajax. The Blacks reacted brilliantly to an early setback (Jerry Ani
headed Kercem into the lead), with two quick goals scored by Jeremy
Camilleri and Alex Tramboo who deflected into his own goal from a Leandro
Blanco de Castro free-kick. The Blacks survived Kercem's second half
onslaught and scored the third in the 95th minute through Joseph Attard
(picture below). In Thursday night's game, Qala continued to shock with a
1-0 win over leaders Sannat Lions. Nadur Youngsters took full advantage of
this slip by beating Xewkija Tigers 2-0. Ghajnsielem's Under/12 side
commenced their championship pool commitments with a narrow 3-2 win over
S.K. Victoria Wanderers.
