Sliema 2 Hamrun 0
Msida 4 Mqabba 2
Sliema registered their first win in the championship pool this afternoon, beating Hamrun 2-0 despite having Ivan Woods sent off half way though the second half.
The victory, in the wake of defeats against Birkirkara and Marsaxlokk, came thanks to goals in the final 11 minutes by Matthew Bartolo after a drive from mid-field and a free kick from Bajada from just outside the area.
Earlier Msida beat Mqabba 4-2 in a match which could go a long way to securing Msida's place in the premier league.
