Victory Sports Club regained their place in the first division with a 2-0 victory over rival New Radiant Sports Club.

Victory will play Masoodi in the second division final at 3:30 pm on Sunday. The two teams that reach the final of the second division are heading directly to the first division.

New Radiant looked dangerous early in today’s match. However, Victory calmed down, and Hussain Faisal (Faito) scored the first goal in the 26th minute.

Ibrahim Rizhan (Rizko) scored Victory’s second goal in the 67th minute.

Victory is promoted to the first division after four years. Victory were suspended on December 12, 2019. This suspension came after their Premier League match against TC Sports Club in the second round of the 2019/2020 Dhvehi Premier League season.

Relegated due to suspension, Victory had to escape the suspension and play in the second division. There was no second division in the following 2020–2021 season. Victory then escaped suspension shortly before the start of the 2022 second division. However, they did not qualify for the knockout stage.

New Radiant last played in the Premier League in 2018. Club was suspended on January 26, 2019, before the start of the following season. New and Victory escaped suspension just before the 2022 tournament.

In 2022, New Radiant reached the semi-finals of the second division.
