The young team, managed by Sabah FK’s U21s boss, opened the scoring within the first two minutes through Amir Ibragimov's header from a Jim Thwaites free-kick. JJ Gabriel added a second shortly after with a powerful shot that hit the post, only for the young striker to complete a hat-trick just before the half-time whistle. Gabriel not only scored a hat-trick but also made two more appearances in the second half, showcasing his versatility and impact on the game. Jacob Watson also found the net early on for United, while Godwill Kukonki was substituted due to an ankle injury early in the match. Despite their dominance, United only managed 44 shots on target, a testament to Sabah's defensive resilience. Overall, the U19s finished the match with a commanding 44 attempts on goal, compared to Sabah's single attempt, highlighting the Red Devils' offensive prowess in the competition.",
