Wallidan on Sunday beat Greater Tomorrow Football Academy 1-0 in their week-18 match played at the Brikama Box Bar Mini Stadium to maintain their Gambia Football Federation (GFF) Division One League survival aspirations.

Greater Tomorrow Football Academy reacted for an equaliser but were unable to penetrate Wallidan’s solid defence line thus the match ended 1-0 in favour of Wallidan.
