In an exciting encounter at Stad Popiler on Thursday afternoon, Baie Lazare emerged triumphant with a 3-1 victory over Glacis. The match marked the conclusion of the SFF Cup Preliminary round, solidifying the lineup of clubs advancing to the next stage, which includes Mont Buxton, Mavericks, Beau Vallon, and Baie Lazare.
Baie Lazare’s win may have come as a surprise to some, but coach Eddy Naiken and his team can take pride in their accomplishment. The club showcased their determination and skill throughout the game, securing a convincing three-goal lead in the first half. Kailen Akim Raheim Albert opened the scoring in the 5th minute, followed by Randolph Aglae’s contribution in the 13th minute. Ray Michel Jean-Luc Labrosse extended the lead to 3-0, ensuring Baie Lazare’s dominance before the halftime whistle.
Although Glacis managed to pull one back through Nataniel Tirant’s goal in the 54th minute, it was not enough to mount a comeback. The team can now shift their focus entirely to the Seychelles League 1, where they are engaged in a fierce promotion race alongside several other clubs.
