Personally, for me it\u2019s hard to take because to me it was just a give-away goal to Senegal. That was not the right penalty. It\u2019s hard to say sometimes even when we are asked to leave the referee but sometimes if you\u2019re dissatisfied with the referee\u2019s decision it\u2019s and sometimes hard to take,\u201d said Gambia\u2019s coach Abdoulie Bojang.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cOur last game we scored a very good goal and it was disallowed, again we saw Senegal were given a very cheap penalty which would have allowed the game to flow.\u201d According to him, they look forward to continue putting a very good performance to defend the title<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI am very much impressed with the performance of the boys. They definitely put up a respectable performance, coming from behind, playing good football, sticking to the game plan and we could\u2019ve even won the game.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Coach Lie Bojang further said that despite Senegal being the favourite, they were better than them during the 90 minutes, adding that they beat them in the final during the last edition.<\/p>\n<p>The Young Scorpions will play Mali in the first semifinal fixture in the U-20 WAFU Cup of Nations on Friday 9th September while Senegal entertain Mauritania in the late kickoff of the same day.<\/p>\n<p>Both matches will be played at Cheikha Boidiya Stadium in Nouakchott. The winners from the matches will play the finals on Sunday 11th September, 2022. The two finalists will qualify for the 2023 U-20 Cup of Nations in Egypt.<\/p>\n<p><strong>For More News And Analysis About <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/gambia\">Gambia<\/a> Follow <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/\">Africa-Press<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Arfang M.S Camara Africa-Press &#8211; Gambia.
