In an intense encounter at Stad Linite, Tigers FC secured a hard-fought 2-1 victory over Mont Fleuri. The match witnessed an early lead from Mont Fleuri as their standout player, Jean Aimarthelin Ratianaridimby, who previously represented La Passe FC, found the back of the net in the 11th minute. However, their joy was short-lived, as Zinola Francois equalized for Tigers FC just two minutes later.
The dynamics of the game shifted further when C. Roucou of Mont Fleuri received a red card in the 32nd minute. This numerical disadvantage made Tigers FC’s task significantly easier as they capitalized on their advantage. By the 45th minute, Tigers FC took the lead with a goal from Mario Matombe, which ultimately proved to be the match-winning strike.
Mont Fleuri finds themselves in a precarious position, with the urgent need to accumulate points to avoid languishing at the bottom of the Seychelles Championship. Their current form suggests that a turnaround is imperative to salvage their season.
On the other hand, Tigers FC remains firmly in the title race for the Playoff games, sitting just one point behind Bel Air, who currently occupies the second spot. Their consistent performances have kept them within striking distance of a coveted playoff position.
Both teams displayed resilience and determination throughout the match, making the contest an engaging spectacle for spectators. As the Seychelles Championship progresses, the battle for positions intensifies, adding further excitement to the league.
