MATCH REPORT

Għajnsielem F.C. were very close to winning their first point of the season, indeed they were chasing their first win of the season, but they were frustrated by a 90th minute goal scored by Xagħra United's Michael Bezzina. The 1-2 defeat condemns the Blacks to their third defeat out of three matches so far this season.

The Blacks who started without their injured captain Joseph Buttigieg, his place taken by Charlon Tabone, played well and were good value for their 14th minute lead courtesy of a Manwel Cordina goal. But their defensive problems caught up with them eventually and Xagħra equalized before the break through ex-Black Thiago dos Santos, who beat Joseph Grech from the penalty spot.
