Qrendi put their minds at rest

Qrendi Vittoriosa S 5 0

Qrendi needed a point from their final encounter against Vittorisa to avoid a play-off against Swieqi, and they obtained the three at stake thanks to an impressive victory with Aaron Agius scoring a hat trick

It was evident from the starta that against a demotivated Vittoriosa side, Qrendi are going to make it, ending their historic first experience in this category with a bang.

After hitting the crossbar through Santo Da Hora, Qrendi took the lead on 15 minutes when Aaron Agius headed home with a free header from close range.

On 28 minutes Shunsuke Nakamura doubled the score following a good on the right by Da Hora. Unfprtunately Nakamura had to be substituted in the interval.

Qrendi put away any residual doubts with a two-goal burst in two minutes.

On 57 minutes Aaron Agius was on hand to finish off a Da Silva Martins run on the left, and sixty seconds later the same Agius scored the best goal with a shot from just inside the area.

Five minutes from time Qrendi scored the fifth and final goal after another good run by Julio Cesar Sousa Da Martins Silva
