The
Gambia National team has returned home from Bamako, Mali, after their recent
elimination from the 2018 CHAN qualifiers.
The
home-based Scorpions lost to Mali 4-0 in the return-leg clash played at the
Estadio Modibo Keita in Bamako at the weekend following their goalless
stalemate in the first leg fixtures played in Banjul, a week ago.
Coach
Alagie Sarr and his home-based Scorpions charges needed a score draw in the
return leg against Mai in Bamako at the weekend to progress to the second round
of the qualifiers after their goalless draw with Mali in the first leg played
in Banjul. They however could
not get such a result but conceded four goals in the second half, which
resulted in their exit from the qualifiers and Mali through to the second round
of the qualifiers.
The
home-based Scorpions now need to wait until 2020 CHAN qualifiers after their
recent elimination from the 2018 CHAN qualifiers.
