The mapmakers have to make this choice because of the shape of our planet and because there is still not a method as to how to have both the land shapes and distances to be precise at the same time.
The shape of the earth is the factor that is not allowing (at least for now) that we have both correct land shapes and precise distances on the maps of the Earth. Because the Earth has a rounded shape, as we move further away from the Equator, the shapes are deforming more and more, or rather they are stretching more and more which makes them appear much bigger than they actually are, thus giving us an unrealistic picture of the size of some of the places on our planet.

Answer: Sunday at 12h.
Explanation: The timezones are determined by the meridians, i.e., the longitudinal lines that crosses the Earth from pole to pole.
The initial referential is at GMT, abbreviation for <u>Greenwich</u> <u>Mean</u> <u>Time</u>, located at the Royal Observatory in the United Kingdom.
The Earth rotates 360° in 24 hours, so each 15° is exposed to the Sun for 1 hour. So, at each 15° we add an hour if the location is due to east or subtract an hour if the location is due to west.
Addis Ababa is located at 40°, which is in the band between 30° and 45°.
Counting from the referential, there are 3 timezones going east. So, we add 3 hours to the initial hour:
9h + 3h = 12h
And the day is the same since the difference is only 3 hours ahead.
Thus, fans located at 40° east will watch a football match on Sunday at 12h.
