Baie Lazare faced mounting pressure as they could ill afford to drop any more points, especially with Beau Vallon in scintillating form.
The game kicked off with an early goal in the 1st minute, courtesy of Damien Rath, giving Baie Lazare an early advantage. However, Mont Buxton quickly responded in the 18th minute, as Julio Port-Louis found the back of the net to level the score at 1-1. The match remained tightly contested until the 82nd minute when Randolph Aglae broke the deadlock, securing the decisive goal for Baie Lazare, resulting in a final score of 2-1.
Baie Lazare’s position in the Seychelles League 1 hangs in the balance, as they currently trail Beau Vallon by four points, with only four more rounds remaining. The pressure is on Baie Lazare to maximize their points tally and close the gap on the second-placed team.
In an unexpected turn of events, Mont Buxton finds themselves languishing at the bottom of the Seychelles League 1 table. This unfortunate position marks them as the weakest team in Seychelles at the moment. Previously, Anse Royale held that distinction, but they managed to secure two victories in the last three rounds, propelling them above Mont Buxton. To avoid another disappointing finish in the 10th position, Mont Buxton must find solutions and accumulate more points in the remaining matches.
It has been a recurring pattern in recent seasons for Mont Buxton to occupy the lowest position in Seychelles, and they are eager to break free from that trend.
