1472 in shambles Allegations of bribery, sabotage, and betrayal tear players apart. In the just concluded match between 1472 and Dakada, which ended 1-2 in favor of Dakada, the players and backroom staff of 1472 were close to blows as they accused themselves of bribery and sabotage.

Those players then turned against the team when play resumed.

The accused set of players did not make any attempt to deny the allegation.
