After being humiliated in the video, shared by Twitter (X) user NduMncube, Dumi finally shared his side of the story without being spoken over by his opponents, highlighting how Big Zulu's team got an unfair advantage:

"The Gqom team broke two rules today and won unfairly. They failed to field a female player; they also didn’t have the player on the team list sheet.
"The rules say you can play one professional player at a time. The Gqom team had nine players who were not eligible to play.

Dumi's Gospel team was declared the winners by default. Speaking to Briefly News, Dumi said he and Big Zulu were on good terms:

"All is well. Big Zulu apologised, and we made peace. He’s my brother. There was no hate; it's just a man thing nje eGroundin. We spoke after; all was well."
