East End Lions moved to the top of the Sierra Leone Premier League table on Sunday with a convincing 2-0 victory over city rivals Old Edwardians.
A goal in each half settled a feisty derby played before a packed crowd at the Siaka Stevens Stadium.
The result leaves the Lions two points clear at the summit with a game in hand, while Old Edwardians drop to fourth.
"We are taking it one match at a time," the Lions coach said. "But the boys believe."
The title race remains tight with several clubs still in contention.
