Mennoh Hails Teammates


August 8, 2006


Liberian international Stephen Mennoh has hailed fellow Indonesian based players for lifting the recent Lone Star fund raising trophy.

"I would like to commend my teammates for a job well done. Though it was not something so big, at least they have shown to the sporting populace that there is football in Indonesia", the former LPRC-Oilers tank man hinted through a telephone conversation with the authoritative Analyst.

He then used the opportunity to call on the requisite sporting authorities to step up the pace in preparing the Lone Star for the 2008 qualifiers.

"There should be at least two international friendly matches before the opening clash against Equatorial Guinea," he intimated.

The explosive man in the engine room currently plies his trade with Persita Tangaran where he has fellow countrymen Fallah Johnson and Oscar Glaydor as teammates.

Mennoh had a stint in Ghana where he featured for premiership outfit Bofoakwa, and was tempted to naturalize in playing for the Ghana U-20 in the Argentina 2001 competition.

He was then persuaded by the legendary George Weah to return home in justifying his inclusion with the national team then known as the famous "Weah 11".

His quest to continue his soccer career landed him at LISCR and helped them win the runners-up slot in the top flight.

He later moved to LPRC-Oilers, and made his international debut against the Scorpions of Gambia in the Banjul in 2003.

He got the Lone Star lone goal in the win against Ethiopia at the ATS in continuation of the 2004 Nations cup qualifiers.



The harder worker left the country in 2004 for Indonesia. At his first club Sriwujaya he served as captain, and later transferred to the 'purple and white outfit of Persita.
