Obinna Obiefule Punishes Former Team

Hibernians have extended their lead in the Maltese championship to seven points following their 2 - 0 win over Mosta on Saturday.

Clayton Failla gave Hibernians the lead seven minutes after the restart from the penalty spot .

It was a contentious decision by the referee as Mosta players claimed the player was brought down outside the 18 - yard box.

In stoppage time, substitute Obinna Obiefule netted his first goal of the season less than a minute after he was introduced by manager Branko Nisevic.

“I want to apologize to Mosta supporters. I did not say good bye when I scored, I only said I am sorry.

“I can never insult or say good bye that made me what I am today.

“All the same I feel so happy scoring for my team today,”said Obinna Obiefule.

25 - year - old Obiefule netted 35 goals in 34 matches for Mosta before he switched to Hibernians.
