Gedi &Sons FC has secured qualification to the premier league of the Liberia Football Association.



A 1-0 win over struggling Alliance FC ensured the club’s qualification. Gedi& Sons has 23 points and their last game against Mighty Blue Angels

would determine whether they would finished as first division champions. Gedi recorded the win on Saturday at the Antoinette Tubman Stadium.


In what should have been Saturday’s last game, Mark Pro failed to show up. Black Star FC received the maximum three points without kicking the ball. On Sunday, league matches were played in Kakata and Monrovia. Watanga FC upset title contender LISCR FC 2-1 at the Nancy Doe Stadium in Kakata. Pea Brown scored both goals for Watanga.

The win has resurrected the team’s hope of retaining a place in the premier league. Defending female league champions Tito United scored an overwhelming 10-


0 victory over Queens FC at the Antoinette Tubman Stadium. In the second game, Olympic Conquerors whipped Diamond FC 2 goals to 1. The game was a second division action.
