Bell Football Tournament: NEMA FC and Sitako Academy Win Tuesday Matches

-




It was a stiff encounter at the Kuloro Football Grounds as Jolakunda clashed with NEMA at 3 pm.

The full ninety minutes was goalless but NEMA managed to book their ticket to the semi-finals following their win over Jolakunda in a 5-5 penalty shout-out.

Meanwhile, the 5 pm encounter was between Bonto Koto and Sitako Academy.

The players failed to capitalize on their goal opportunities during the full ninety minutes.

Sitako Academy scored more goals in the 5-5 penalty shout-out thereby emerging as the win.

Last week, Black Star and Tungina United won their first match of the tournament.

The Semifinals for the tournament are slated for next week Tuesday the 24th of September at Kuloro Football Grounds

Cisse, 48, led Senegal to their first continental title, winning the 2021 Africa Cup of Nations and even though his previous contract ended in August, he remained in charge for Senegal’s two 2025 Afcon qualifiers last month, a 1-1 draw with Burkina Faso and a 1-0 victory over Burundi. Senegalese Football Federation (FSF) wanted Cisse’s deal to be renewed but the sports ministry, under Bassirou Diomaye Faye’s new government, decided to end his long tenure just nine days before the next round of qualifiers.
