By: Alusine Rehme Wilson
Former FC Kallon duo Masalakie Bangura and Kenewa Stevens have revealed that although they are missing their former club’s playing style, they feel very happy joining the 2018-2019 Sierra Leone Premier League Champions East End Lions Football from “the Cavaliers”. “We are missing Kallon FC's style of football, the fans and former teammates of the club that groomed us up but we feel very comfortable in our new home East End Lions, a side that is very ambitious to always win,” the duo told AWE-Media.SL. The duo, Kenewa Stevens and Masalakie Bangura both holding and attacking midfielders expressed they are indeed missing a lot from their former club where they grew up passing through the various youth system of the club owned by the Former Sierra Leone, Monaco and Inter Milan Football Star, Mohamed Kallon. Kenewa Stevens who had skipped “Cavaliers for over ten seasons becoming the longest serving team captain of the club shocked the football family in Sierra Leone after he was unveiled by East End Lions Football Club after a record transfer worth the sum of One hundred million Leones-(Le 100,000,000) a transfer deal that was halted initially by the management of FC Kallon who denied having any transfer dealings for the player and thus eventually sought for redress and later the Stevens was cleared to don the Red and White shirts of “the Killers” starting last February. Steven’s saga followed his former FC Kallon team mate Masalakie Bangura who had earlier abandoned training with his former club to join “the Killers” before the start of this season and later his transfer saga was amicably been resolved between the two managements of both FC Kallon and East End Lions Football Club.

They players said: “they are looking forward to winning this season’s national men’s top-tier where they currently sit top with 44 points after 22 matches.”

Senegal, first African team to beat England, but not first to score three goals

By: Alusine Rehme Wilson Claim: Soccer World HQ, in a Facebook post , claimed that Senegal is the first African team to beat England and the first to score three goals against them. Verdict: Partly True! Senegal is the first African team to beat England, but not the first to score three goals against them. Full Text The England senior men’s national football team, nicknamed the “Three Lions,” played their first match against Scotland in 1872. That match ended goalless but marked the beginning of an intense soccer rivalry between both nations, dubbed the “Auld Enemy.” Since 1872-2025, the England national team has achieved its 1000-game milestone in November 2019 when they played Montenegro at the Wembley Stadium. England's all-time head-to-head record shows that they’ve played a whopping 1072 matches against 100 countries, won 615 games, drew 255, and lost 200.

Sierra Leone, Two other Nations disqualified from AFCON 2024 U17 Qualifiers

By: Abdulrahman Barrie The U17 football teams from Sierra Leone, Guinea, and Guinea Bissau have been disqualified from the 2024 U17 African Cup of Nations competition in Senegal after failing the mandatory MRI test scans. These scans, which determine the age of the players, revealed discrepancies that led to their removal from the tournament. The disqualification follows changes to Article 27.4 of the U17 Africa Cup of Nations regulations, which have tightened the criteria and enforcement of age verification measures. The updated rules stipulate that if a team has more than four players deemed ineligible after the MRI eligibility test, the entire team will be disqualified. The MRI tests, used to enforce age restrictions in youth competitions, are crucial for ensuring fairness. Unfortunately, the teams from these three nations did not meet the age criteria, resulting in their disqualification. This decision has come as a significant disappointment for the young players and their fans, w...
