Two late goals from Hibernians secured a 3-0 win for the champions over lowly-Lija Athletic at the Hibs Stadium, yesterday.
It took a moment of good intuition from youth Degabriele for Hibernians to draw first blood.
On minute 41, the Malta U-21 striker dispossessed an opponent before latching the ball towards Da Silva.
The Brazilian found Marco Sahanek on the other side of the pitch and the Austrian winger dribbled past Clinch before curving the ball into the net for 1-0.
Late in the game, Hibs managed to find a way to take victory home with two late goals.
First, man-of-the-match Degabriele received from Jackson Lima, rounded the goalkeeper and slotted the ball into empty net.
Next it was Bezzina who after receiving from Degabriele, hit a first-timer which went past Martinelli after being slightly deflected by Predrag Babic.
