In preparation for the National Inter-department Sports Association (NISA) organised football tournament, the Observer football team will tomorrow (Saturday) play a test match against the Ministry of Agriculture at the Independence Stadium football field. The game kicks-off at 4.30.
The test match will help the rejuvenated Observer FC to assess the level of fitness and areas that need improvement ahead of the 24-team tournament. The team’s last game was when they humiliated The Standard Newspaper 3-0.
The draw for the NISA tournament has already been done and the Observer FC is paired in Group B alongside The Gambia Radio and Television Services, Prison Services, and Fire Services. As a result of the draw, the Observer supremo, Momodou Sabally, who doubles as the Director of the state broadcaster is said to be in a state of limbo because he is finding it tough to decide which team he will play for.
