In a controversial move, Club Green Streets appears to have intentionally forfeited their Dhivehi Premier League fixture against New Radiant SC to avoid a potential heavy defeat and subsequent relegation. Under league regulations, a forfeit results in a 2-0 victory for the opposing side. By opting for this predetermined score line, Green Streets maintained a superior goal difference, ensuring their survival in the first division.
This strategic decision led to the relegation of Club Valencia to the second division. This incident marks a recurrence of such tactics by Green Streets, who have previously utilized forfeitures in a similar manner.
