Valletta 2, Qormi 0
Valletta were back to winning ways after netting two second-half goals to see off a battling Qormi side 2-0.
It was far from a five-star display for the champions who struggled for long stretches to break down a resolute Qormi defence.
In fact, the Malta champions struggled to create any decent scoring opportunities with their best chance coming on the stroke of half-time when Leandro’s cross-shot across the face of goal was missed by both Denni and Ian Zammit.
On the restart, the Citizens tried to step up a gear and their dominance finally reaped a breakthrough on 59 minutes when Leandro sent a dipping cross into the path of Denni who beat Farrugia with a fine volley.
Valletta wrapped up the win three minutes from time when Leandro exchanged the ball with Gabriel before firing a low drive past Farrugia.
Ian Zammit was voted as the BOV Player of the match.
