Samger’s unbeaten start to the Gambian premier league season came to an end on Sunday after they went down 2-1 to Hawks at the Serrekunda West Mini-Stadium.

Samger’s defeat means Gambia Ports Authority and Brikama United remain the only unbeaten sides in the 12-team division but Hawks would care less, considering the fact that this is their first win of the season and is coming after their head coach Sang Ndong left to take over the National Team job.

It was Samger who took an early first half lead through Gibriel Sillah but Musa Barrow hit two goals in the second half to ensure that the Red Devils grabbed their first win of the season after eight matches.

With the defeat, Samger has dropped on the table to fifth with twelve points, seven points adrift of leaders G PA. Hawks is ninth with nine points.

Speaking in a post-match interview, Hawks Coach Ansu Fatty is hoping that the maiden win of the campaign would spur them into bigger things. “This is the only time you can collect maximum points before the end of first round so that you can count yourself in the title race. Am very satisfied with the result, the boys came out and play very well by giving all their heart out and this is what we expect from them,” Fatty said.

Samger Coach Jane Joof said he was disappointed with the result. “We started well and managed to scored first but we lost due to the physically of Hawks. This was one of our most difficult and physical games so far in the league,” he added.
