This early goal set the tone for the match, energising the home side and laying the groundwork for a barrage of attacking play.

The first of these was a well-placed shot from just outside the penalty area, following a slick build-up involving Promise Saiti, who provided the assisting pass. Mussa's positioning and anticipation allowed him to tap in his third goal shortly after, showing his ability to capitalise on defensive lapses.
Scores Fc's offensive prowess was not limited to Mussa alone. William Chipwaila added to the tally with a well-executed strike from 18-25 yards following a smart long-range pass from Josephy Lefani.
