After a slow start in the first 30 minutes which saw both side struggled for composure, Gunjur United inject life into the game in the 35th minutes when they open the scoring.

Malang Jassey controls a lovely long pass from center-back Musa Ndong before placing a low cross from the right for Dawda Darbo who tapped into the top roof to put Gunjur ahead and increase his personal tally to two goals.
