The South African “Protea” esports team is ready for their final match at the WEC25 tournament. The players are wearing a special purple kit. This color is a strong symbol of their support for ending Gender-Based Violence in South Africa. They have a very important game coming up on December 5, 2025. This is their last chance to win the Mobile Legends: Bang Bang (MLBB) title at the IESF’s WEC25 event.
So far, the Open Protea Esports Team has had a difficult time in the competition. They lost their matches against both Turkiye and Iran. Now, they must face the team from Malaysia. It is important to know that every team in this group is a professional team. This means the players play games for a living and train full-time.
The Malaysian team is a very strong opponent. They were the winners of the WEC24 tournament last year. They will definitely be a hard nut to crack for the South African team. The Protea Team has a big challenge ahead of them because they are all amateurs. They do not play as their main job.
This match will be a test to see if the players who are not fully employed to play can defeat the professionals. It is a clash of different levels of experience. However, the spirit in the team is high, and they are ready to fight.

Despite the tough opponents, the whole of South Africa is rallying around our beloved team. Everyone is showing support for the players. The team has shown great bravery, dedication, and fortitude. These are the qualities of the bravest South Africans, and they will need them all in this final match.
Supporters who want to watch the match against Malaysia can tune in on Friday, December 5, 2025. The game is scheduled to start at 12:30. Fans can watch all the action live on the official streaming link provided by the organizers.
