Gambia’s Under-20 team faced a disappointing exit from the Wafu A championship, losing 3-0 to Sierra Leone in the semifinals.
The defeat not only ended their hopes of qualifying for the Africa Cup of Nations but also marked a troubling moment for Gambian football, raising concerns about the future of Coach Lie Bojang, who previously led the team to the World Cup.
Despite his past successes, the heavy loss has prompted calls for change among fans and analysts alike.
The Young Scorpions will now shift their focus to the third-place match against Guinea on Saturday, following Guinea’s own defeat to Senegal.
The upcoming game will be a chance for the team to regroup and salvage some pride after a challenging campaign.
