Rabat Scorers: n/a
Match Description: A good performance by the Magpies in the first half with too many wasted scoring opportunities. Dingli scored the first goal from a corner kick with poor defensive attention in this dead-ball situation.
In the second half Dingli were the better side, where they increased their lead with another goal. The only positive note in the second half is the excellent performance offered by the goalkeeper Jonathan Azzopardi, since if it wasn't for him the score would have been much larger, and would have resulted with an abysmal defeat for the the Magpies.
Opinion: In my opinion the main problem in team is that they are too slow when they building a scoring action. Too much time is wasted on thinking about how to move the ball or to whom to pass the ball. This gives enough time for the opponents to retreat and defend well any scoring opportunity.

The Rabat team needs more time to settle. The new players haven't settled so far and we must do hard work if we are to avoid being mauled by Hamrun.
