The match featured goals from Idrissa Kargbo, Ernest M. Massaquoi, and Abrahamson Kamara, highlighting Old Edwardians’ attacking strength. Both teams started energetically, with Wilberforce Strikers showing early promise. However, the deadlock was broken in the 54th minute when Idrissa Kargbo capitalized on pressure from his teammates to score.
Wilberforce Strikers struggled to convert their chances, hampered further by a red card for Umaru Fofonah just five minutes after the first goal, which disrupted the team’s rhythm and contributed to their eventual defeat.
