The result saw Barau climb to fourth in the table with 20 points from 13 matches, tying with Nasarawa United. Doma United improved to eighth place with 17 points from 12 matches, also boasting four wins.\n\nThe Savannah Tigers had an early opportunity in the 10th minute when Sadiq Rilwan headed a cross towards Adegbite Michael, whose half-volley from the left failed to reach the goal. Omah Joseph tested Barau's goalkeeper with a free-kick in the 25th minute, and the goalkeeper parried it for a corner.\n\nBoth teams were locked in a tight contest throughout the match, with neither side managing to create a clear scoring opportunity. Doma United was forced to make a substitution in the 60th minute after Shola Collins collided with a Barau player and left the field for medical attention. Bitrus Philemon replaced Collins, while Uche, Fantami, Jackson Peace, and Daniel Simon came on for Omah Joseph, Sadiq Rilwan, Haruna Abubakar, and Isa Mohammed.\n\nDavid Ndiaye was the only Doma player shown a yellow card during the game in the 66th minute.
