Tarxien Rainbows F.C. and Sliema Wanderers FC shared the points in a 1-1 draw in their Malta Premier League fixture on February 28, 2026. The final score from the Tony Bezzina Stadium was a fair reflection of a closely matched contest where both teams had periods of dominance. Sliema Wanderers took the lead in the first half with a composed finish following a defensive mix-up in the Tarxien box. Tarxien improved after the break and found a deserved equalizer around the hour mark, a powerful strike from just inside the penalty area. Both teams had chances to win the game in the final twenty minutes; Sliema's forward missed a one-on-one, while Tarxien had a goal ruled out for a marginal offside after a VAR check. The draw left both sides with a point from an entertaining clash.
