The
friendly was part of Real De Banjul’s preparations for the continent’s top-tier
club football competition - the 2013 CAF African Champions league against
Moroccan side FUS Rabat in the first leg in February 2013 in Rabat, Morocco,
and the second leg in Banjul in March 2013.
Both
sides made a spectacular start to the game and launched occasional goal-scoring
opportunities in front of each other’s goal mouth but it was the visitors who
were able to capitalize on their opportunities and opened the score through
Muhammed Njie in the 8th minute of the game to give his side the lead.
Muhammed
Njie could have rejuvenated Cassa Sport’s lead from the penalty spot in the
41st minute of the game but the penalty was denied by Real De Banjul custodian
Assan Jallow. Cassa Sport then went to break with a one-nil lead.
Striker
Pap Sanneh sealed the victory for Cassa Sport in the 69th minute of the game
and Real De Banjul finished the game with ten men when captain and defender
Baboucarr Savage was sent off for unsporting behaviour.
