By: Alusine Rehme Wilson

The 23-year-old finally returned to action for his team FC Kallon after he was introduced in the 60th minute of their match day-21 crunch clash against East End Lions Football Club in the ongoing Sierra Leone Premier League told AWE-Media.SL a post match interview at the Wusum Stadium in Makeni that he feels good for his return to football action with his club FC Kallon. “Although it was a very disappointing moment for my team today, as we were unlucky to win but did bow to East End Lions Football Club, I still have the courage that my team will bounce back in the ongoing championship.” Asked about what he did miss most during his absence from active football the FC Kallon midfielder replied: “Well I missed the game, I missed football generally. Everybody knows about my incident, the accident that I had, but thank God now I am back to my normalcy and will continue playing football.” “The Makeni pitch is very good. It’s just one of the available examples of a good pitch to play football, he replied when asked about his general impression about their new venue, the Wusum Stadium in Makeni. The ace midfielder also said, his team’s defeat to East End Lions Football Club will not distract their agenda to remaining competitive in this season’s championship. “This is the beauty of the game football is just about winning, losing or drawing. I believe we will bounce back in our next game and return to winning ways.”

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. Senegal, on the other hand, is one of Africa’s most famous football nations, nicknamed the “Lions of Teranga.” In 2002, ...

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...
