Wallidan Share Spoils with B/United
By Lamin A. Darboe
Sainey Touray’s 69th minute close range goal saved the day for Wallidan as they trailed Bakau United from the first half. Bakau United were leading at the start of the second period from Demba Sarr’s 42nd minute goal. But Touray’s introduction in the second half resulted to a tactical masterpiece from the Wallidan bench, as ensured the 2005 league champions avoid defeat. The Gambia youth international was an instant hit as he rose and fired a low header in the United net. A keenly contested affair ensued with either side fighting for the killer goal. In the 43rd minute Ebrima Kanteh could have delivered the full results for Wallidan but his effort went high. And in the dying moments of the game Alagie Janneh also had an opportunity from close range only to shoot high.
Elsewhere in another match of the day, Gambia Ports Authority opened their 2008 season’s account with a 1-1 draw with Steve Biko. Ports returned to town after being knocked out of the CAF Confederations Cup by Ivorian side ES Bingerville last weekend. The FA Cup holders went three goals down in Abidjan ending the doubled legged contest 4-0 on aggregate. Bingerville earlier won the first leg 1-0 at the Independence Stadium.
However, Ports has proved to be formidable side in the local scene having only surrendered their league crown last season at the match. They won the 2008 league curtain raiser – the Super Cup, against Real de Banjul.
