The Futsal season kicked off on Thursday with the FMA Super Cup, which was played in front of a sizeable crowd at the newly-upgraded Corradino Pavilion, between Champions and Knock Out winners Balzan FC and runners-up, Lija Athletic.

Balzan FC opened the new season, now under Futsal Malta Association management, with yet another honour – the first ever Super Cup to be held in Futsal. In what proved to be an entertaining match, Balzan came from behind to change a two-goal deficit mid-way through the first half to a 5-4 score in their advantage.

Presentations were held immediately after the game to match officials, runners-up and winners by FMA President Mr. Donald Spiteri.

“We are please to note that all futsal enthusiasts are welcoming our efforts in promoting and raising the game’s profile”, Mr. Spiteri said after the game. The FMA president went on thank his colleagues at FMA and MFA President and CEO for their support.
