Young Roar’s win in the PlayStation 4 National Premier Leagues match against SWQ Thunder FC on Tuesday 28th June at Clive Berghofer Stadium has been reversed due to an error on the official team sheet.

A review of the matter conductedĀ by Football Queensland with the fullĀ co-operation from Brisbane Roar Football ClubĀ determined that a last-minute change to theĀ match day squad led to incorrect informationĀ being listed on the official team sheet atĀ the commencement of theĀ fixture.

As a resultĀ SWQ Thunder FCĀ receiveĀ the three (3) competition pointsĀ by a margin of four (4) goals.

Event timeline:

  • The team manager for the Young Roar was made aware by the 4th official ofĀ a mistake on theĀ team sheetĀ at half-time. Ā 
  • Team manager acknowledgesĀ that it was a mistake made by human error and offered to rectify the situation immediately.
  • 4th official acceptedĀ the explanation. Ā It was communicated that theĀ situation would be rectified at the completion of the game.
