“We have taken the decision on the match long time ago, that is, awarding three points and three goals to Sunshine Stars, as well as the deduction of three points from the points accrued by 3SC,” top league official Salisu said.

“We called the two parties to hear more on what happened and we deemed it fit to sanction Gbolahan Salami of 3SC because his behavior that day was very bad. He needed to be cautioned. So he has been fined 100,000 Naira and warned seriously by the board.”
