Xewkija Tigers were the only Gozitan side to advance to the fourth round of the FA Trophy after inflicting a 3-0 defeat on second division strugglers Senglea Athletics at the Gozo Stadium.

Xewkija took the lead on 27 minutes when the experienced Chris Camilleri fired the ball home with an angled drive.

The first half ended 1-0 in favour of Xewkija but they all but sealed their place in the next round when, 17 minutes from time, Mark Camilleri pounced on a poor clearance by goalkeeper Brandon Bartolo and drove the ball home.

The Tigers compounded Senglea’s misery with a third goal two minutes from time. John Camilleri tapped home from close in.
