Ħamrun Spartans completed an historic night for Maltese football when they edged past Velez Mostar to secure a 1-0 win at the Centenary Stadium to become the third Maltese team to reach the third qualifying round of the UEFA Conference League.

A goal by Brazilian striker Jonny was enough for the Spartans to secure a second successive 1-0 win over their Bosnian opponents to progress to the next round 2-0 on aggregate.

It was another commanding performance from the Spartans who after taking the lead they managed to administer their advantage despite Velez Mostar’s efforts to claw themselves back into the match.
