A day Robert Murić will not forget
3 goals in one game. The first was taken well, the second was taken greedily, and by the third the crowd were simply waiting for him to get the ball.

A brace, and Kenan Dervišagić takes the afternoon — 8.37
There is a particular kind of quiet from an away end watching one man score twice. Kenan Dervišagić provided it, and the 8.37 beside his name is if anything generous to everybody else.

Floriana say no — this time
The offer from Hamrun Spartans for Dunstan Vella was heard out and sent back the same day. First bids are rarely meant to succeed; they are meant to find out how loudly the door closes.

Kauan was at the centre of it, and by the time it was pulled apart there were three or four others involved. Training grounds are small places and long seasons make them smaller.

10 goals as Floriana and Zabbar St. Patrick go for it
Defending was optional and nobody took up the option. 10 goals between Floriana and Zabbar St. Patrick, and not one of the people who paid to be there will ask for the money back.
