So much has been said about events that happened at BF yesterday. Hooliganism is wrong and so is selective application of the rules by match officials and in this case, Thomas Kusosa.
That goal by Epoupa was offside. Have sought an interpretation of the offside rule from referees' instructors and I'm told that was offside.
They say Law 11 on offside, in reference to that Epoupa incident, the Kusosa should have flagged for an offside. They say the ball deflected off a Highlanders player and Epoupa had an unfair disadvantage. That wasn't a deliberate pass by a Bosso player, FACT! Will soon attach the relevant clauses for you to interpret.

Isaac Mbedzi - The Dumb argument of saying the ball deflected from a Highlanders player does not make the Dynamos clear from interfering with play and makes it worse by running from an offside position to finish it himself...eish but the quality of play though makes our football look bad too.
