I was Not
Invited - Says Geoffrey Miller
May 28, 2004
As the national soccer team the Lone Star prepares for its
international assignment against the Eagle of Mali in the qualifying
round of the African Cup of Nation, the Liberian semi professional
player who is based in the United States of America, Godfrey Miller,
says he was not invited for the pending match against Mali scheduled
for the 6 of June in Monrovia.
Player Miller told The Analyst on Tuesday that his coming to the
country was due to his long absence as a result of the fourteen
years of civil war.
He said he returned mainly to meet his relatives as well as to
contribute his quota in any way in the reconstruction of the
country.
The Liberian semi professional player who left the country in the
early 90's at the age of 15 traveled to Sierra Leone, the United
States, and Germany before returning to the US where he is now
playing college soccer while pursuing higher education.
The Liberia soccer star who is presently training with the national
team also said that he is willing to play for the team if he is
officially invited by the technical staff.
The coming of the Liberian semi professional player without
invitation to join the team in its practice section has already been
welcomed by Lone Star Technical Director, Kadala Kromah.
According to him, the coming of the midfielder was a clear
indication that he is willing to play for his country without any
condition attached to it.
