BRATISLAVA, Dec. 6 (Xinhua) -- Slovan Bratislava Sports Club is still waiting for a challenger in the Slovak football premiership Fortuna Liga, winning its ninth consecutive match after edging out FC ViOn Zlate Moravce 2-1.

"It is not easy to win every Fortuna Liga match," said Slovan Bratislava coach Vladimir Weiss Sr. after his team defeated FC ViOn Zlate Moravce on Friday.

Ibrahim Rabiu gave the visitors a 1-0 lead in the second half before Vladimir Weiss Jr. stretched the lead to 2-0 late in the game with a low shot. Zlate Moravce veteran midfielder Tomas Dubek pulled one back for the hosts in the final minute of extra time.

Visiting FC Spartak Trnava remained in the second spot after edging out MSK Zilina with a goal in the final minute of regulation time, staying 8 points behind Slovan.

MFK Ruzomberok arrived in Michalovce with a purely Slovakian roster to nail a 3-0 win.

FC DAC 1904 Dunajska Streda is back in the hunt for the third spot in the standings after outscoring the last-ranked FK Pohronie without much of a hassle 2-0, cruising to its third consecutive victory under the new coach Joao Janeiro.

SKF Sered's Czech striker Roman Hasa had a great first half against AS Trencin, scoring two goals, but the visitors answered in the second half to tie the game at 2-2. Sered's Croatian striker Dominik Radic was on the receiving end of a fastbreak pass into the box and Andrej Kadlec sent a header into the back of the net to set the final score to 4-2.

After 9 rounds without a victory, struggling FK Senica edged second-to-bottom MFK Tatran Liptovsky Mikulas 1-0. Enditem
