NB: this incorrect table was supposedly compiled by the Ethiopian Football
    Federation; it has 7 more wins than losses (presumably part of the error
    is with Nyala who should have 3 wins, 4 losses and part with Air Force
    who should have 3 wins, 4 losses; also the match awarded against Wonji
    appears to have been left out), and an overall goal difference of +7.
