Hmmm…
We still get hope
A draw would’ve been better instead.
Really our national team can’t represent us and give us winning results, there beat result will always be draw and loss 😏
Let’s go for another hope
A disappointing defeat though but anyway we have used to it really shameful!!!!
Let us all as Sierra Leoneans come together as one people and pray for our coutry so that things will change for the better. If not I’m afraid because it seems as if the haters are more powerful than the well wishers. May Allah bless and help our Country SIERRA LEONE Ameen
