Competing in two teams—one wearing white and the other red, both featuring the cedar emblem—the lawmakers from various competing political blocs played a 30-minute match divided into two 15-minute halves. The event utilized an open substitution system to allow maximum participation from various deputies and ministers. The match was intended as a gesture of national unity and peace through sports during a sensitive period for the country's political future.
