Gambia Football Association division one league strugglers Africell beat City boys Real De Banjul 1-0 in the week three fixtures at the Serrekunda East Mini Stadium.
The first period was dominated and controlled by Real De Banjul, and they launched a series of assaults in front of Africell's goal-mouth, but all their attempts were denied by Africell's solid defence line, and the first period failed to produce a goal.
Upon resumption of the game, Real de Banjul established their supremacy over Africell, and created numerous goal-scoring opportunities, but squandered all.
Africell, who were struggling during their past two games, dominated the game and created golden scoring opportunities.
Their efforts paid dividend in the 72nd minute of the game, when mid-fielder Sainey Sambou netted their lone goal from a brilliant strike, and earned his side their first win in the season.
Africell has now collected 3 points, in three games, whilst Real De Banjul managed to collect only 2 points in three games.
