The team was led by Xavier Saliba and they opened the second half of the game by having Yerai Hernandez Gutierrez and Murtaz Kakabadze score two goals in just two minutes.
“It was a memorable season. It was hard for us to do all of this within two months, and this win is pushing us to work even harder to achieve our goals,” Club Chairman Edward Bartolo said.
Net News reported that Zoran Leveski and Camilo Gomez also scored a goal along with Aleksandar Gligorov. the team’s goalkeeper Tornike Bukia also scored, marking the seventh goal of the game.
Their fate was later on sealed by Yerai Hernandez Gutierrez who closed off the game with a phenomenal win.
