Male’, MALDIVES – After a 2-0 defeat against Victory in the ongoing Dhiraagu Dhivehi League, club Valencia is forced to wait for their last game of round two to ensure whether they secure a top six position in the league. Valencia with 10 points lies on 6th at the moment while AYL with 7 points remains on 7th position of league standings. However, with a superior goal difference compared to AYL is a huge relief for Valencia to avoid relegation qualification.
In last night game, Victory's two goals were scored by foreign player Awilo in the 80th and 90th minute of the game.
Victory was the dominant force right from the kick off and forced Valencia keeper Ifrah into action in the 24th minute from a good header by Awilo.
All the teams have just one game remaining the second round and only the top six will play in the third and final round of the league.
The league is two-horse race at the moment with defending champions New Radiant on top with 36 points while Maziya on second with 34 points. It is very much anticipated that the winner will be decided in the final round clash between the two heavy weights.
BG Sports with just 6 points in 13 games is confirmed as one team that will be played in the league qualification with champions and runners up of second division. AYL, who surprised many with a second round magic last season, was unable to replicate the form this season and is very likely to accompany BG Sports to fight for a place in the top flight next season.
In the next game of the league New Radiant will face Mahibadhoo on 9th October at 1600hrs.
