The Morocco Kids dominated the Eleven Attackers in the first half of their local football game at uMasizakhe Stadium on Sunday 10 March, leading 5-0 at halftime. The Attackers struggled to make any headway against the Kids' defence, leaving their supporters, coaches and fans frustrated as goals kept pouring in. The jubilant Morocco Kids celebrated their commanding lead.

However, in the second half, the Attackers staged a comeback, launching relentless attacks against the Morocco Kids. They even adopted the Kids' slogan, "Once a Kid Always a Kid," to rally their spirits. The substitute players made quick adjustment­s to the game, ultimately equalising the score to 5-5. The stadium buzzed once again with football lovers, supporters and fans, who gathered to watch their friends, sons, and brothers play soccer, undeterred by the dust kicked up by the players or the wind blowing through the field.

Despite the stadium's lack of water, ablution facilities and changing rooms, the community continued to enjoy being there, supporting their teams. Both teams are now gearing up for the Easter weekend tournament, with momentum building as they organise themselves for the chance to win big prizes.
