Standard Chartered Bank
Gambia Ltd on Sunday held a match-viewing of Liverpool Football Club’s crucial
returning leg of the English Premier League against third-place holders Chelsea
FC, as part of the international bank’s sponsorship agreement with the club
over the years.
The viewing ceremony
organised by SCB was held at the Sheraton Resort and Spa in Brufut.
Liverpool was held to a
2-2 draw after coming from behind twice to level the scores through Luis Suárez.
The injury-time goal,
being the most significant of all, allowed the Reds to share points with
Chelsea at the crucial stage of the premier league table.
Liverpool are struggling not to drop beyond the
position of UEFA junior championship stage, while Chelsea are also trying to
maintain their position in the first three of the table in order to play Europe
champions league, after their poor performance in this year’s competition as
defending champions.
In his remarks on the match-viewing ceremony, SCB Managing Director Humphrey Mukwereza said: “In 2010, the bank saw a need to raise its profile and brand visibility across Asia, Africa and Middle East, through the sponsorship of Liverpool Football Club - a key contender in the English Premiership.
