BOVIII:Fgura utd. vs Mdina 1-3 Posted on Wednesday 24th February 2010 Coach Brian Testaferrata fielded youngsters Lagana' and Pace from the first minute to fill up defections of Cassar, Pace, Vince Testaferrata and Pisani. Our boys shared the spolils in the first half and went close with attempts from Galea and Spiteri with the Knights keeper producing a fine save off a fierce Said shot. Mdina went ahead on the 40 minute when referee awarded a penalty in their favour which was converted. Soon after Fgura had a Galea goal disallowed for offside.
In the second period, Mdina made it 2-0 with a good goal, but Fgura soon reduced the arrears when substitute Azzopardi Busuttil tapped in an inviting cross. Fgura tried to salvage the match but their mass forays left ample space for Mdina to conjure fast breaks. In fact they managed to hit the woodwork twice, in one of which the ball bouncing on the fatal line before being cleared to safety. The game was dead and buried when ten minutes from time Attard came out to make his a cross, fumbled the ball but managed to clear the ball, only onto the feet of the opposing forward who had no difficulty to lob in an empty net.
