Tarxien 1 Mosta 0

Tarxien Rainbows were back to winning ways when they edged past Mosta 1-0 at the Hibs Stadium today.

The match offered little entertaining fare to the sizeable crowd present as both teams struggled to create any real scoring chances.

The Rainbows scored what proved to be the winning goal midway through the first half when Ricardo showed great skill to move past two defenders before unleashing a powerful low drive that gave no chance to Mosta goalkeeper Jonathan Debono.

Mosta tried to hit back but their best chance of an equaliser came midway through the second half when Firas Aboulezz teasing cross found Arilson who was denied by Cassar and from the rebound the Tarxien goalkeeper again blocked on the Mosta striker.

Tarxien ended the match with 10 men when Orosco Anonam was shown a straight red card after a tough challenge on Nikola Bogdanovic.

Tarxien's Ricardo Costa was voted as the BOV Player of the Match.
