Western Area Rural has had a tough start to the tournament, losing their opening match to the Northeast region. However, they are a team with a lot of experience and a strong defensive line, which will make it difficult for the Southern region to score.

Southern region, on the other hand, won their opening match against the Northeast region team, but they will need to improve their goal-scoring if they hope to progress to the semifinals. They have a strong midfield and attacking line, but they will need to be more clinical in front of goal. 

In terms of tactics, both teams are likely to adopt a cautious approach in the early stages of the match, with neither wanting to concede an early goal. As the match progresses, both teams are likely to become more attacking, particularly if the score remains level.

In conclusion, tomorrow's match between Western Area Rural and Southern region is set to be a highly competitive encounter, with both teams fighting for a place in the semifinals. The Western Area Rural team will be looking to bounce back from their opening defeat, while the Southern region will be hoping to continue their winning start to the tournament. The key to victory for both teams will be their ability to score goals, and it will be interesting to see which team comes out on top.

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...

Disturbing snail space Civil works in the Makeni Central Lorry park

By: Ibrahim Jalloh - (Jallomy) The Makeni City Council (MCC) ordered commercial vehicles and business entities to leave the park area for the purpose of upgrading the park. Two weeks were given as the duration of the work. Regrettably, a week plus few days have elapsed with no significant work done. Drivers and business people in the park are completely frustrated and their livelihoods threatened.  Few years ago, drivers and traders were asked out of the park for similar reason but after two weeks they were asked to return to the park with no work done. This was disrespectful and insulting.  We urge MCC to double their efforts as the affected persons are running out of patience.
