Sliema Wanderers halted Ħamrun Spartans’ perfect march in this season’s Premier League as the Blues came from behind and secure a 1-1 draw at the National Stadium.
The Spartans headed into the match aware that victory over the newly-promoted side would guarantee them sole leadership at the top of the standings after Floriana were held by newly-promoted side Naxxar Lions at the Tony Bezzina Stadium.
