Gagra Hold Tight As Goshteliani And Mujiri Seal Victory
Gagra saw off Sabulalo 2-0 in the 23rd round of the Erovnuli Liga on 31 August 2026. They moved into eighth place on 24 points, two behind their opponents who sit fourth on 34. The hosts had dropped points in each of their previous three league games — a 4-1 win followed by a 2-2 draw, a 1-1 stalemate, and two goalless defeats — so the clean sheet was a relief.
The first half ended with Gagra ahead after Goshteliani's twelfth-minute strike. He was substituted at the break, replaced by Andreychuk, and the visitors made a change of their own when Alhassan came on for Ende in the forty-sixth minute. The game had a rhythm to it, and by then Gagra were comfortable enough to keep their shape. Sabulalo pressed forward but never got going in the final third.
The second goal came from a penalty in the eighty-second minute, converted by Mujiri. Gurchiani, who had picked up a yellow card nine minutes in, was brought off at sixty. Kobuladze entered the fray in the seventy-seventh minute, and Peikrishvili followed in the eighty-third. Figueredo arrived at the eighty-eighth minute with a booking, and the game settled into its final stages. The visitors had the ball but could not find a way through.
Gagra's record now reads five wins, nine draws and eight losses from twenty-three matches. Sabulalo have ten victories, four draws and six defeats, still sitting four places above their hosts. The result means the gap between them remains ten points, and neither side has changed position in the table. The hosts will look to build on this, while Sabulalo need to find consistency after a run that included two heavy defeats against Jagiellonia.
