CHAN-Gambia players finished up practice yesterday at Old Yundum's Ousman Saho Football Field. They leave today for Franceville, where they face Gabon this Saturday, March 8. The match is the second part of their African Nations Championship playoff series. Coach Alhagie Sarr ran everyone through important game plans during the final workout.

Coach Sarr talked with GFF media after practice. He said his team feels ready mentally for what comes next across the border. The coach sees Saturday as make-or-break time for his squad. They hope to win and move forward into the next playoff round. Both teams need a victory since nobody scored during their earlier meeting.

The previous contest happened in Thies, where Gambia played host. That game ended without any goals from either side. This creates pressure for both teams heading into the weekend showdown. The winner advances toward tournament qualification, making every play count during the upcoming match.

Gambian players practiced with full energy, knowing everything rides on this game. Sarr focused on strategies that might help them score against Gabon's defense. The entire squad participated in tactical exercises designed to prepare them for Saturday's challenges. Fans hope these preparations translate into goals when the whistle blows in Franceville.
