On 9 October 2024, Muccia CDS faced Bosco at Stad Linite in a crucial match for both teams. The match ended with a score of 2-1 in favour of Bosco, who secured their first points of the season. The halftime score was 2-0, indicating a strong start for the visitors.
Muccia CDS did not begin the season well and must find a way to start earning points if they want to avoid a tight relegation battle. After three rounds, they are still searching for their first victory and will need to regroup quickly to turn their fortunes around.
In the first half, Bosco took control of the match with goals from Ciel Phelistin in the 19th minute and Graham Bristol in the 37th minute. Their strong performance put them in a comfortable position going into the break.
The second half saw Stephanio Jean score for Muccia CDS in the 50th minute, bringing the score to 2-1. However, that was as close as they would get, as they struggled to find the equaliser. Despite some chances, they could not convert and ultimately faced defeat.
The match was marked by intense play, evidenced by the seven yellow cards and two red cards issued. It is still early in the season, but the pressure is clearly mounting on both teams. Bosco, having faced a similar situation last season, knows the importance of securing points early to avoid the threat of relegation. They had to play in the Playout to retain their spot in the Seychelles Championship last year, and they are determined to avoid that scenario again.
This victory allows Bosco to move off the bottom of the table, while Muccia CDS will need to reassess their strategy as they head into the next rounds.
