Revengers, the only team in Championship from Praslin island, added another away win to their tally this weekend, defeating LMS United in a hard-fought match. The match remained goalless in the first half, with both teams displaying defensive resilience. However, the second half witnessed a flurry of goals that ultimately determined the outcome.
Revengers took the lead in the 51st minute when Tanjona Tolotriniaina Anselme Rakotoarivony found the back of the net, giving his team a 1-0 advantage. However, their lead was short-lived as Tahinasoa Rakoto Hariniaina equalized for LMS United in the 68th minute, leveling the score at 1-1. The match took an exciting turn when Daryl Alvis Alcindor netted the winning goal for Revengers just two minutes later, making it 2-1.
LMS United, currently struggling in the Seychelles Championship, have a record of 0 wins, 1 draw, and 3 losses, with only 2 goals scored thus far. They find themselves at the bottom of the league table alongside Bosco FC and Mont Fleuri FC. On the other hand, Revengers FC started the season with two defeats, casting doubt on their ability to compete in the second division following their relegation from the Premier League. However, they have since turned their fortunes around, securing three consecutive wins and currently sitting in fourth position.
Away games often provide an extra motivational boost for players, and it seems that Revengers left Mahe island with a sense of satisfaction, motivation, and determination to fight for the title. Their recent success has propelled them up the league standings, and they appear to be a team to be reckoned with.
