After suffering a heavy defeat to Marsa in their previous outing, Qormi earned a precious point in a 1-1 draw with neighbours Zebbug Rangers at the Victor Tedesco Stadium on Friday.
Clive Gauci opened the score for Zebbug ten minutes in the second half but an own goal restored equilibrium on the 75th.
In another match, a goal by Matthew Camilleri eight minutes from time gave Swieqi United a narrow win over neighbours St. Andrews. A win which puts Swieqi in third place.
