6 de Setembro clinched the Sao Tome island football championship title by beating Desportivo Ké Morabeza 2-0 in the final match of the competition. This victory guarantees the military formation a place in the national championship final, where they will face 1.º de Maio, the champion from the island of Principe.
Despite the win, the final whistle did not spark widespread celebrations as the team's focus is already on the upcoming national final. "Our main objective is the finalissima. That's why we will save the party for the end," explained assistant coach Nilton Tomé, stating it would be premature to celebrate extensively with a significant obstacle still ahead.
