Baboucarr Sillah: Like you and Yus, I am also praying for the Lions to win the match with the needed goals. I would have definitely given you "my take" on the game, but I have a very bad cold this week. I'll catch up with Gambia-L soon. Ebrima PS: The other day I was reading an interview given to the Daily Mirror by Emmanuel Petit of Chelsea, where he (Petit) said that Roger Mendy of Senegal was/is one of his mentors. Petit revealed that Roger Mendy taught him a lot about the game of soccer when two were in Monaco in 1987. >From: "B.
