Sierra Leone is set to wrap up its 2023 AFCON qualification campaign with a visit to Guinea-Bissau at Estadio 24 de Setembro on Monday evening, marking the tournament’s penultimate match and the day’s sole fixture.
The outcome of this match holds no bearing on AFCON tournament qualification. The Leone Stars of Sierra Leone have already been eliminated from contention, whereas the Djurtus of Guinea-Bissau solidified their spot in next year’s AFCON this past June with a 1-0 victory against Sao Tome & Principe. With this win, they joined football giants Nigeria in securing a spot for the upcoming championship.
Regardless of Monday’s match result, Sierra Leone is set to conclude their journey in third place in their group. Their absence in the upcoming AFCON follows their notable appearance in the early 2022 finals in Cameroon, marking the end of a 26-year hiatus from the championship.
While John Keister’s squad won’t grace the field in next year’s AFCON, Monday’s fixture offers a potential moment of redemption and pride for the team.
History might hint at an intriguing contest: their last face-off culminated in a nail-biting 2-2 draw, and notably, no cards were handed out during the game. Only time will tell if Sierra Leone can find solace in another commendable performance on the road.
