With 11 points from seven games and the victory, Muscat rose to the fifth spot in the league standings. The former second-division side continue to make their presence known in the first division despite being a newcomer to the top tier league. The LPRC Oilers took the lead in the league, thanks to a close-range goal from Trokon Jackson in the bottom-right corner of the first half. However, Muscat responded in the opening 15 minutes of the second half, thanks to an outstanding free-kick goal from Arku Morris.  Both teams had a few opportunities, with Muscat making the most attempts in the second half. In the 90+6 second of the seven additional seconds of time, Emmanuel Gono’s penalty kick gave Muscat the victory they desired. Positions for both teams may change after this weekend’s round 7 matches, which will be played at various venues. kokoianthony@gmail.com (Anthony Kokoi) d1fdf791-0560-45f4-a39d-309ba13bcea5 Thu, 13 Oct 2022 08:00:35 +0000 Liberian Observer - Liberia's First Independent Daily
