By: Alusine Rehme Wilson 


After his charges paid off over the weekend against WAFU-A U17 championship host Mauritania, Sierra Leone’s U17 Male team Head Coach Mohamed Lamin Kamara has in post match interview told AWE-Media.SL that his side’s huge 3-0 win on Sunday is because, “We had a good preparation and got the organization right.”

He also said he’s very comfortable seeing his players put on such a commendable performance, although he was initially worried due to their experience. “I think this team is capable of reaching the final and subsequently lift the trophy. That will make Mama Salone smile,” he added.


Commenting on Daniel Deen Sesay who individually put out an outstanding show letting him secure a brace and winning the man of the match award in their 3-0 win over Mauritania, coach Mohamed Lamin Kamara  says, “Daniel is a brilliant and hard working striker, he gives defenders tough time throughout  and it's good for him and the team.


“The difference now is, we are going into our next match against Liberia with much composure. We will go for a win to keep the spirit high. We’re thankfully for the warm support by the Sierra Leoneans in Mauritania, it’s so awesome and I wish to thank the whole country for the various means of support and prayers, as we look forward to a much bigger one in our next fixtures, reacted the coach when asked by Awoko to comment on his next match in championship this Wednesday against their MRU neighbors Liberia.
