The league title holders, Real de Banjul, have earned their first win of the season with a hard-fought 1-0 win over Africell/Sait Matty on Saturday at the Serrekunda West Mini-stadium.

Substitute Malthy Okpara was brought down in the eighteen-yard box and Mbenga Colley made no mistake in converting the spot-kick to break the deadlock in the 85th minutes.

Elsewhere on the same day, Armed Forces suffered a 0-1 defeat at the hands of Samger at the Serrekunda East Mini-stadium. The narrow, but much needed victory, was Newcomers’ second win in two matches.
