Male’, MALDIVES – Club Eagles started Ooredoo Dhivehi Premier League with a 2-1 win against last year’s second placed TC Sports Club. After the first half it was a 1-1 draw but Ahmed Zaad scored the winner in the second half.

TC Sports Club started the match with their new signings including Ali Fasir, Shamweel Qasim and Ahmed Abdulla and Ali Fasir created their first attempt on target.

Eagles foreign player Seddik broke the deadlock after picking up the ball from the edge of the box and curls it into the far corner of the net.

Shamweel Qasim leveled the game for TC Sports Club in the 24th minute from a superb volley inside the box.

Former TC Sports player, Ahmed Zaad scored against his former club from a wonderful header and took the lead for Eagles in the 62nd minute and changed the score to 2-1.

Seven minutes before the normal time Seddi made another good shot but it went wide this time.

Maziya will play against Eagles on 5th May in the next match of Ooredoo Dhivehi Premier League.

Such a huge gap between this and next fixture! In this day and age when the league is attracting a couple of hundreds for a match who will bother to remember the next fixture date when it comes after such huge gap, in fans mind this break will feel like a break of one year! By the way how many times Bonda will retire before he really retires from playing first class football? May be, in a league like dhivehi league, as long as you can score a goal, you are good to go!

Also, I think FAM should find a way to play matches of all three divisions simultaneously. Currently, DPL is played (or at least, initially planned that way) over a 10-month or so period, with the games spread of over the course. The second and third division, however, take place during a period that lasts less than a month. As a result, players in those divisions are unaccustomed to long seasons and they are forced to play a number of matches in a single blitz. Regarding your comment about Bonda, how old is he now? Surely, there are better younger players than him who are itching to get a chance to play in the top division. Bonda has to be one of the most insincere footballers ever. He'll probably continue playing into his 60s if he's given a substantial paycheck. And here we were led to believe that he was going to spend all his energy into "developing young talents in Addu" via his academy.
