The Serbian side maintained their goal advantage after previously beating the Spartans 4-1 during the first leg. Despite this, the Maltese side’s showing in both legs is something which supporters can be proud of, creating endless goal opportunities and spectacular moments.

This year’s run was definitely one for Maltese football historic books and will hopefully serve as a moment of encouragement for fellow Maltese teams as they strive to climb the European football ladder.

Following the game, the Spartans took to Facebook to celebrate the team’s showing, expressing pride in their showing, both on and off the pitch.

Tensions high as Hamrun Spartans brace for second leg against FK Partizan

Aug 25 2022

This evening, Malta’s very own Hamrun Spartans are set to face Serbian side FK Partizan in the second leg of the UEFA Europa Conference League play-offs.

The strong Serbian team secured a 4-1 against Malta’s representatives in their first leg last week, with Matthew Guillaumier scoring one goal during the game.

FK Partizan’s three-goal advantage means that Hamrun will have to come out guns blazing to level the playing field and hopefully secure an advantage. Partizan defender Sinisa Sanicanin stated that despite their 4-1 win, they must remain cautious and alert in order to make sure they go on to the group stages.

Meanwhile, the Spartans are calling on their supporters to be their 12th player on join them as they ‘fight till the end’.

92-year-old man becomes oldest person to pass GCSE Maths exam

Aug 25 2022

Celebrations are due for Derek Skipper, a 92-year-old man who became the oldest person to ever pass the GCSE Maths exam.

Skipper served as an RAF radar engineer during the Korean War, taking a maths exam for the first time ever since 1946, shortly after WWII. Despite getting a grade five, the highest possible mark on the foundation paper, he stated that the results didn’t matter to him at all, he was just doing it for his own fun.

Skipper took the foundation paper amongst a hall of 15 and 16-year-olds after enrolling in a free adult education course. He did state that he wanted to take a higher paper rather the foundation, but that was not possible within the adult education programme.

After receiving the positive mark, Skipper uttered a few words of motivation, stating “What else are you going to do with your life? Do you just want to die off? You may as well enjoy it.”

Safe to say, the 92-year-old will definitely be celebrating his great marks.
