Real de Banjul on Monday grabbed a massive victory in the 2022-2023 Baluwo-sponsored Gambia Football Federation (GFF) Division One League season after slashing The Gambia Armed Forces 4-1 in their opening league outing played at the Bakau Mini-Stadium.

The city boys, who surrendered the League and FF Cup trophies to Hawks FC and Wallidan FC last season, came for the significant points to increase their chances of lifting the country’s Premier League trophy after several years of trophy drought.

Real de Banjul notched in four goals in the match to snatch a massive 4-1 victory over The Gambia Armed Forces in the First Division League campaign.

The Gambia Armed Forces scored one goal in the match, which eventually proved to be a consolation for them.

The win earned Real de Banjul top-spot on the 2022-2023 Baluwo-sponsored Gambia Football Federation (GFF) First Division League table with 3 points after one league outing.

Meanwhile, Fortune FC defeated Banjul United 1-0 at the Brikama Box Bar Mini-Stadium, while Falcons FC also defeated Waa Banjul on the same scoreline at the Late Ousman Saho Football Field in Old Yundum.

Fortune FC and Falcons FC are both with 3 points each in one league match.

The Gambia Armed Forces, Banjul United and Waa Banjul are all pointless after losing to Real de Banjul, Fortune FC and Falcons FC in their opening league matches.
