Last year’s Knockout Cup winners, Revelation FC were on Saturday crowned champions of the Banjul City Council (BCC) sponsored curtain raiser (Super Cup) final after defeating last year’s league cup champions, Jamesen FC 1-0 in a final played at the King George 5 Mini-Stadium in Banjul.

Baboucarr Sugu, fondly called Scopper 9, opened the scoring for Revelation FC in the 68 minute of the match from the penalty spot, which eventually proved to be the winner for them.

Revelation FC continued from where they stopped last season after conceding one goal in 14 games.

They finished as runners up after they lost to Revelation FC in the ‘nawettan’ league cup final last season.

Meanwhile, Revelation FC won the last year’s league cup after defeating Jamesen in the final, while Jamesen FC won the knockout tournament after defeating McDonald in the final.

As winners of the Super Cup final, Revelation FC were awarded a giant trophy, gold medals and D25, 000 while Jamesen FC received D15, 000 as runners up.
