Yadzo Oti Warriors and Akatsi All Stars set the tone in a fierced encounter as both sides were cautious surging forward in the early hours of the game.
The Akatsi based team went looking for a goal as they missed glorious opportunity to have taken the lead in the 10' of play.
The game became a ding-dong affair with All Stars continuously varying tactics to outwit their opponents but failed to make an impact.
Yadzo Oti Warriors tried to find the antidote to stop the pressure being piled at them by their foes but ended up conceding in the 30' after their defence broke up leaving holes to the advantage of Akatsi All Stars.
