More suspension blows for Gambia

africa » gambia
Friday, May 16, 2008
The the disciplinary committee of the  Confederation of African Football (CAF), has finally communicated to the national football's governing body of its decision to suspend forward Ousman Jallow for the Scorpions next two matches in 2010 World Cup qualifier campaign, for the red card he earned himself during Gambia's 2008 Nations Cup qualifier tie against Algeria.

Steve Biko's Habib Kunta has also been given similar punishment by the continental body for slapping an opponent during Gambia's match against Mauritania in the second-leg of CAN 2009 qualifier competition in Nouakchott.

The duo's punishment came on the heels of a similar suspension handed out to three key players for similar offenses.

Striker Assan Jatta, commonly known as Bierhoff, Lamin Conateh and Abdoulie Paco Corr, have all been given two-match suspensions by the disciplinary committee of CAF for their involvement in a fracas that marred the aftermath of Gambia - Algeria match in Banjul.

The suspended players will automatically miss Gambia's Group Six opener against Liberia on June 1, and Scorpions home tie against Terenga Lions of Senegal a week later.  This information was contained in a communique signed by Madam Amina Kassem, head of disciplinary administration at the Confederation of African Football in Cairo.
