It was another exciting week for Maltese futsal, with six matches played across the men’s and women’s divisions. The much-anticipated Men’s League clash between Luxol St Andrews and Futsal Selection U19 was postponed due to unforeseen circumstances.
Men’s League
The University of Malta Students Futsal Team delivered a statement performance, defeating the Malta FA Futsal Selection U17 with an emphatic 13–0 victory.

The Women’s Futsal League also kicked off this week, delivering plenty of action and goals. St George’s Futsal made an impressive start with a 9–1 triumph over Parr Mela Rockets Futsal. Venezuelan striker Estefany Colemnarez stole the show with four goals for the Cottonera side. During the match, Paula Perdomo of Parr Mela was sent off following a disciplinary incident.
