The opening night of the fifth annual Upper Demerara Football Association (UDFA)/GT Beer Football Championship got off to an unfavorable start as the feature matchup between Eagles and High Stars was abandoned due to fighting.
The clash, which was witnessed by a sizable crowd at the Mackenzie Sports Club (MSC) ground, Linden, erupted on the field in the approximately 84th minute.
The melee involved several players from both sides and forced the officials to abandon the match. It was the second skirmish in the matchup, following a brief scuffle in the first half.
