Second consecutive goalless draw of Bourj FC in the Captain's Cup

Bourj FC and Shabab al-Ghazieh drew 0-0 in their second game in the friendly tournament called the Captain's Cup, named according to the sponsor, Captain Café. The match was played on Tuesday afternoon, the 15th of September, and like all other games, it was hosted by the small Al Ahed Stadium in the southern suburbs of Beirut.
The match was broadcasted live on Facebook. Unfortunately, the quality of the football played was unsatisfactory, as the game was often fragmented by numerous fouls and injuries, sometimes even self-injuries, which are the effect of the long period of inactivity for the players of both teams. There were also many technical errors, missed passes and other inaccuracies. There were very few goal opportunities, most of them for Bourj FC, but they were all missed. The level of nervousness in the field was higher than the usual, especially for a friendly game.
