Hibernians - 1, Qormi - 0

Champions Hibernians were back to winning ways after they edged Qormi 1-0 at the National Stadium today.

This was a merited victory for the Paolites who seem to be finally showing the grit and determination that enabled them to win the league title last season.

Portuguese forward Miguel Lopes De Pina netted the winning goal on 33 minutes when he was first to Andrew Cohen’s free-kick to head the ball past Qormi goalkeeper Matthew Farrugia.

Yesterday’s success lifted Hibernians to fourth spot in the standings, just one point behind third-place Qormi six adrift of leaders Birkirkara.
