Liberia has no hope
technically
Though both sides are virtually out of the competition,
thus making the tie academic, it is still highly important judging
from the collection of players on the respective teams.
The Lone Star squad includes four foreign base
players, and is expected to leave the country today.
Arcadia Toe, Godfred Miller, Sekou Keita and Bob Zeo
are the four foreign players that have been called in to stiffen the
Lone star.
Zeo, who featured permanently for Ghanaian side Hearts
of Lion in the fresh Ghanaian Premier League, is reportedly on trial
in Egypt and indications of his making it to Bamako look lifeless.
Godred Miller who is from the United States
certainly looks unconvincing, but is making the trip in the name of
foreign base. Pundits are furious about his injection and are calling
for his immediate ejection.
The other two foreign base players are Sekou Keita and
Arcadia Toe. The former featured in the Lone Star humiliating 6-1
defeat to Senegal. He is a bit technical, but lacks the pace and
gumption in going forward.
It is not clear though where he is playing, as reports
say he has surfaced in Senegal leaving his base in Morocco. The Latter
is no doubt a resourceful striker.
He is a team player and is certainly a product of
modern day football. The Dubai-base striker would indeed be an asset
to the team.
The 14 locals making the trip include:
Goalkeepers: Saydee Swen and Melvin King of LPRC-Oilers and Gedi Shoes
respectively.
Defenders: Captain Varmah Kpoto Mighty of Barrolle, Sackey Doe of
Invincible Eleven, Shelton Barlee and Patrick Gwarnu are representing
LPRC-Oilers. and Aloysius Pennie LISCR F.C
Midfielders/Strikers: Gizzie Dorbor, LISCR F.C, Bill Paytoe Invincible
Eleven, James Koko Lomell LPRC-Oilers and Abu Sando Mighty Barrolle.
Rufus Saydou LPRC-Oilers, Prince Garwo NPA-Anchors and George Miller
Mighty Barrolle.
Several players have been dropped with LISCR F.C
defense ace George Weah, and Invincible Eleven danger man Kalifa
Kromah being the surprised dropped out.
As usual, the team leaves the country
without a deputy coach, leaving Joseph Sayon and the highly
experienced Administrative Manager Wortor Anderson with technical
duties.
Reports gathered say the Malians will be parading
players from their youth team, who have made head ways in African and
World youth football.
The likes of Dossima Camara, Bangul Keita and
Ousmane Dieng are top on the list. Both Liberia and Mali are seated at
the bottom of the group with 4 and 2points respectively.
