This was a very controversial match that started with a two hours and a half late kick off; the match was originally scheduled for 1:00 pm. However, the home team, for reasons known to themselves, resorted to every kind of delaying tactic imaginable, including lengthy discussions with the officials and pre-match warm-ups that seemed to go on indefinitely. The tension in the stadium grew palpable as frustrated fans expressed their discontent, eagerly waiting for the action to begin. Finally, after what felt like an eternity, the match kicked off at 3:30 pm. The referee, who was anything but a typical football referee, seemed to favor the home team and made several questionable calls throughout the game. His unusual officiating style contributed to the frustration of both players and supporters alike, ensuring that the full-time score remained as it was: Huruma Starlets 0 – 0 Iron Ladies, a result that left everyone questioning the integrity of the match.
