Maxuell Samurai put the maroons ahead on 11 minutes but four minutes in the second half, Mustapha Jah levelled matters. 

The game seemed heading for a draw but after being interrupted for around ten minutes due to the throwing of objects from the Floriana stand onto the pitch, when the game resumed Rui Areias notched the winner, ten minutes in added time.
