The Sierra Leone Female Under 17 team kicked off the Women’s Day Cup tournament in style, defeating their Liberian counterparts 2-1 in an exciting opening match.
The encounter began with both sides pressing hard for an early advantage. However, it was Sierra Leone’s Adama Mansaray who broke the deadlock in the 12th minute, putting her team ahead. The lead was further solidified 13 minutes later by Adama Kamara, giving Sierra Leone a commanding 2-0 lead going into halftime.
Liberia came out with renewed determination in the second half and managed to pull one back through Lewis Brown in the 66th minute. Despite mounting pressure, Sierra Leone’s defense held firm, securing a well-deserved victory.
This tournament serves a dual purpose: showcasing the talent of young female footballers and promoting gender equality in the sport. The passionate display by both teams echoed the dedication of the Sierra Leone Football Association and the Ram Kay Football Club to fostering women’s football in the country.
The Women’s Day Cup promises to be an exciting spectacle, providing a platform for young athletes to develop their skills and inspire future generations.
