Division 1 League Heat’s-up By Modou Nyang
Hostilities in the GFA division 1 league is on the high as clubs continue to battle for supremacy in the ten team championship.
Over the weekend in week six of the competition, 2005 winners Wallidan who currently sit top of the league table, saw their lead reduced by two points in a 1-1 tussle against struggling Bakau side Steve Biko, at the Serrekunda West playing grounds. Wallidan are currently with 13 points in 6 matches, they have no pending match. On the same day at the Banjul grounds defending champions Gambia Ports Authority FC fought back to conquer a well spirited Sait Matty side 3-2 to move second in the rankings. Ports climbed to second spot after crashing out of the CAF championships league last month albeit with two matches in hand.
And on Sunday CAF confederations cup dropouts Hawks pinned Real de Banjul to a lone goal defeat in a tightly contested encounter at the Banjul grounds. Hawks’ first half strike by under-20 starlet Pierre Gomez, ensured Hawks’ position in third spot on the league table. Hawks also has two matches pending. Gamtel also conquered Sea view FC 2-0 at the Serrekunda East grounds to claim fought spot on the league table.
The matches continue today and at Banjul, Ports will take on Real de Banjul in a tasty encounter whilst Sait Matty will play Steve Biko at Serrekunda West. The other fixture on the same day will witness struggling Sea view battle it out with Gamtel at the Serrekunda East playing grounds. All matches kicks off at 5pm. Tomorrow’s matches will witness Hawks take on Wallidan in a David and Goliath style tussle at the Independence Stadium in Bakau. Gamtel will also seek to maintain their winning ways against relegation battling Bakau United at Serrekunda West.
