GAMTEL SLIPS FROM SUMMIT

87

By Sulayman Bah Gamtel has been pushed back by a fast-pace Real de Banjul as the defending leagueAbdoulie Jallow of Real de Banjul champions leapfrogged the telecom giants to go top of the 12-team table. The capital outfit jump to the apex of the league table followed Tuesday’s victory over Gamtel. Trailing by three points behind Tapha Manneh’s charges prior to the commencement of the game, Real needed to claim the staked points in their next schedule and when the moment came in the form of clash of league heavyweights against Gamtel, Real de Banjul pounced on the opponents without remorse swaging past their adversary with goals from Abdoulie Jallow and Famara Jarju. Initially feared to have sustained an injury against Hawks in a game he was subbed sparking suggestion he might be doubtful for the next fixture, Famara returned to the fold unscathed and was the architect to thank for RDB’s opening goal. Returning trialist Abdoulie Jallow added to Gamtel’s woes with an audacious last-gasp volley after Tapha Manneh’s troop equalized minutes from break. Real now lead by a slender margin on eleven points. Third-placed Bombada who are proving season surprise elements, thumped Bakau United by a goal to nil, in another tie. Round-up of other league four matches Serrekunda United’s catalogue of defeats in the league is on the stretch losing their fourth match in a row. There was a glimmer of hope of a bounce back in the wake of-holiday Gambia foreign-based player Omar Alieu Koroma’s assistance of the team with training techniques at the club’s Serrekunda School makeshift training base. SK United –who got relegated twice are yet to get a grip of the OJ’s tutorials if Sunday’s result is anything to go by. They bit the dust to Interior 2-0 at the Serrekunda East mini-stadium. The Ferry Boys Gambia Ports Authority shared the goodies after they failed to swagger past new capital rivals Banjul United settling for a 0-0 drab score, elsewhere at the rejuvenated KG5 pitch. In another development Armed Forces also pulled off a stalemate 1-1 affair with Wallidan in Brikama.      ]]>
