Marsa began the second round on a bad note when they faced Sirens as they were 1-1 in the 37th minute the match got suspended as the referee said it to be suspended for ‘security reasons’ it was looked to be lost hope for promotion for the Marsa side as they came in a 2-2 draw against Santa Lucia after leading the way 2-0 after half time.

Marsa’s hope rose a little after beating Swieqi by a narrow victory of 1-0 after that match they faced Senglea only to lose the match 2-1 by a late penalty.
