Three-time champions of the Sierra Leone Premier League Real Republicans Football Club waited late to equalize to secure a point against Freetown FC in the opening game of the ongoing National Men’s 1st Division Playoffs.
Both teams played to a goalless first half but stepped up and netted their tournament’s first goals.
Freetown FC were first to score in the 68th minute and enjoyed the lead until their central defender committed a ruthless foul in the 89th minute that saw their Republicans striker scoring from the penalty spot to restore parity and both teams walked home with a point.
Elsewhere in Kenema, Edmond Michael Foundation defeated Bombali Sebora FC 2-1 to climb top of group-B.
