Survival at Stake: Lauwa FC hires Portuguese coach Silva to recuse

By: Alhaji A. Barrie 


Luawa FC has made its most decisive move yet in the fight to escape relegation, appointing Portuguese strategist Flávio Silva as their new head coach. 

With just 20 points after 19 matches and hovering dangerously in 15th place, the club’s leadership has placed its faith in Silva’s tactical mastery to navigate this critical stretch of the Leone Rock Premier League.  

This appointment signals more than just a coaching change, it represents an urgent mission to reshape Luawa FC’s fortunes. 

Silva brings nearly two decades of coaching experience from Portugal, Saudi Arabia, and Kuwait. His tenure at clubs like Boavista FC and F.C. 

Arouca shaped him into a tactician known for his structured game models, youth scouting, and disciplined play. 

His ability to analyze matches, build high-performance squads, and implement modern football philosophies could be exactly what Luawa FC needs to mount a late resurgence.  

Football analysts in Freetown see Silva’s arrival as a calculated risk, a move that could either solidify the club’s future or leave fans reeling if the turnaround falls short. 

His multilingual skills ensure clear communication, and his depth of experience suggests he won’t shy away from the high-stakes nature of this challenge. 

However, time is not on Luawa FC’s side. Every match from here on out carries immense weight, demanding instant impact and unwavering determination from both coach and players alike. 

Luawa FC’s management has made its move, but can Silva rally his squad and deliver the escape the club desperately needs? 

The answer will unfold in the final weeks of the season, as Luawa FC fights for survival in Sierra Leone’s top-flight football.

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.
