The Gambian football team has beaten Liberia 3-0 in their latest World Cup Qualifier, sending their opponents out of the tournament. The win sees Gambia take second place in the group 6 standings, just one point behind Algeria.
The Gambian national side, nicknamed “The Scorpions” took an early lead against Liberia’s “Lone Star” with Njogu Demba taking the lead after just ten minutes. Ousman Jallow scored the team’s second goal, making the half-time score 2-0 to the home team. After the break Liberia came out stronger but failed to score. When Demba scored his second goal in the 76th minute there was no return for the visitors.
Gambia’s next match is on the 11th October against neighbours Senegal.
