Liberia vs Sierra Leone
Match Report
Liberia put on an assured display to beat Sierra Leone 3-1 in a friendly at Samuel Kanyon Doe Stadium in Monrovia on June 9, with Ayouba Kosiah the clear standout, scoring twice to seal a comfortable home victory.
The hosts broke the deadlock in the 31st minute before Kosiah doubled the lead just before the interval and added a third in the 73rd to make the game safe. Late drama unfolded when a Liberia player was dismissed in the 89th minute — a second yellow — leaving the hosts with ten men for the final stretch. Samuel Gandi pulled one back for Sierra Leone deep in stoppage time, but it amounted to nothing more than a consolation.
The result is an encouraging confidence boost for Liberia, while Sierra Leone will have plenty to reflect on after being outclassed for most of the contest.
