Though, the host Gambia did not put out an excellent performance compared to other local categories in the national team in both men and women with such a vibrant performance in their international friendly to Bissau.

The international friendly serves as a preparation test to the local teams ahead of the Chan championship to be held in the Dakar Senegal later in September. The young scorpions finished last year at the final as runners up to Ghana but sise and his men will be eyeing for a trophy when they face off Ghana in their opener.
