RWAFA deployed a 4-2-1-3 formation, which allowed them to maintain a strong defensive base while facilitating fluid attacking movements. The back four consisted of Salim Makame and Mohammed Ghazal as the right and left defenders, respectively, with Hamidu Tabwara and Abdulkarim Mwendo anchoring the central defence. In midfield, Abdillah Mwakombo and Ashraf Gomba operated as central midfielders, providing both defensive cover and support for the attack, while Samuel Lemashon played as the attacking midfielder, tasked with linking play and creating chances. Up front, Hassan Zumo, Bakari Chonga, and Yassir Ngare formed a dynamic trio, with Chonga positioned centrally as the striker, flanked by Zumo on the right and Ngare on the left.

The substitutes for RWAFA included Masudi Bokoko and Msaji Rashid, who would later play pivotal roles in the match.

The first half saw RWAFA controlling possession and creating several opportunities. Their efforts were rewarded just before half-time when Bakari Chonga found the back of the net in the 43rd minute, giving RWAFA a crucial lead. The goal was a result of persistent pressure on the Voi Police defence, showcasing Chonga's ability to capitalise on a defensive lapse.

As the teams returned for the second half, RWAFA continued to assert their dominance. In the 63rd minute, a tactical substitution saw Masudi Bokoko replace Hassan Zumo, a move that would prove to be significant. Bokoko's introduction added fresh energy to the attack, and he quickly made an impact.

In the 82nd minute, Masudi Bokoko scored RWAFA's second goal, effectively sealing the victory. His well-timed run and clinical finish illustrated the depth of talent within the RWAFA squad and their ability to exploit the spaces left by the Voi Police defence.

Shortly after, in the 84th minute, Msaji Rashid came on for Bakari Chonga, further reinforcing RWAFA's tactical approach as they looked to maintain their lead and control the game.

The match concluded with RWAFA Football Club celebrating a well-deserved 2-0 victory over Voi Police FC, a result that highlighted their strong performance and tactical acumen. The home side's ability to convert their chances and maintain a solid defensive structure was key to their success, leaving them in high spirits as they look ahead to their next league fixture.
