University of Malta regained the lead via Cruz Gutiérrez Roller Santiago, with Raducu Emil Andrei extending their advantage soon after. Luxol responded through Sant’Anna Coriolano Leanderson to reduce the deficit to 3–2 at the interval.

Luxol dominated the second half, with Da Silva Gaiewski Maicon drawing level before Sant’Anna Coriolano Leanderson struck again to put his side ahead for the first time. As University of Malta pushed forward in search of an equaliser, Maicon sealed the result in the dying seconds with a goal into an empty net.

Despite the setback, University of Malta Futsal remain top of the table with 18 points from seven matches. Luxol St. Andrews Futsal climb to second on 15 points from five games, level with GŻR Birżebbuġa St. Peter’s Futsal and Marsaskala Futsal Legends, who have both played seven matches.
