Support our beloved national team

[Abdinasir Kadawo]

As you may know it or not know, Cecafa Challenge Cup will start in the next few days. Our beloved Somali National Team will indeed participate. With all the things that have been going on in our nation lately, it's good time to get behind our boys and their cause next few weeks. This is at least something that can unite us in this difficult time.

 

The boys (our heroes for the moment) have being now together and training hard at least last couple of months in Djibouti, their provisional camp. Even though most of them don't play professional or even semi-professional football, I believe they will make Somalia and Somalis all over the world proud. So please get behind them and show your support.

 

There is very good chance they may win it. So COME ON SOMALIA!, Ocean Stars!

Uganda prepares for Cecafa

 

Ten nations will compete for the East and Central Africa Senior Challenge Cup (Cecafa Cup) which starts in Uganda on Wednesday.

 

The hosts, who have won the event a record nine times, are seeking their first triumph in five years and are in Group A with Tanzania, Rwanda, Zanzibar and Somalia.

 

Uganda finished third in last year's event in Tanzania, behind Sudan and Rwanda.

 

Defending champions Sudan are in Group B alongside Kenya, Burundi, Djibouti and guests Zambia with the top two sides in each group qualifying for the semi-finals

 

The opening games of the tournament are in Group B with Zambia playing minnows Djibouti and Sudan facing Kenya.

 

Zambia will participate as guests, after being invited to replace Eritrea, who withdrew from the two-week tournament.

 

The Zambians won the tournament in 2006 in Addis Ababa, having also been invited as guests then.

 

Kalusha Bwalya, the president of the Zambia Football Association, has said the tournament will be ideal preparation for the year ahead.

 

"We're very happy the Cecafa executive invited us to this regional tournament because it will help our team prepare better for both the African Nations Championship (CHAN) and the 2010 World Cup and African Cup of Nations qualifyiers," he said.

 

Kenya, Rwanda and Sudan go into the tournament on a high as East Africa's representatives in the final phase of the World Cup and Africa Cup of Nations qualifiers, which begin in March.

 

Tanzania will also be using the event as a warm-up for the first ever finals of the CHAN, which kick off in the Ivory Coast on 22 February.

 

The Tanzanians already have a psychological advantage over 2007 Cecafa champions Sudan, having only recently knocked them out of the CHAN qualifiers.

 

Kenya coach Francis Kimanzi has said he is giving the tournament the same respect as the World Cup qualifiers.

 

Burundi have yet to win the event, with their best showing coming as runners-up to Ethiopia in 2004.

 

Ethiopia are prevented from taking part as they are serving a Fifa suspension.

so if these guys aren't professionals, where are they getting recruited from?

 

i dont follow footie at all.

[Allamagan]

Thanks Kadawo, if I was a millionaire like many many somali millionaires in both Africa and Arabia I would have taken over the whole cost of the Somali national team while in the game and to inject some pride and confidence in them and to give them all the support they need and all the way to the final. caku!!

 

...wishing them good luck!

[Abdinasir Kadawo]

Winnie, I believe they are recruited all corners of the world. I think there is some kind of scouting, who does this; Somali FA or Somali individuals in Europe, I am not sure. Surely, some are from the clubs in Mogadishu, others simply play for amateur Somali teams in Europe. Most interesting is these two players selected from regional tournament held recently in Garowe.

 

But nothing else does matter than our unconditional support to them. So say with me: COME ON THE OCEAN STARS!

 

Allamagan, you are welcome bro. I feel the same way as you. But since I am poor guy, I can only offer them a moral support. COME ON THE OCEAN STARS!

[nuune]

The Ocean stars lost by 2-0, was beaten by Zanzibar boys.

Ciise Abshir, the star of the team is recruited from a Norwegian team.

[Qorax]

Waa war igala warkan. Waxaan haystaa koox aan maanta ku faani karo balse ma haysto dowlad aan ku faani karo. Halyeeyo iga dheh!!!

[nuune]

Today Somalia is playing with Rwanda.

 

Rwanda beat Somalia in their last 3 appearance by 3-0 on 2001, and 1-0 on 2002, then 3-0 on 2006.

 

Can Somalia change the course, and show the Rwandese some lessons.

 

 

Possible predict for today:

 

Somalia 2-1 Rwanda.

 

 

PS: This should be in Sports Section

[Abdinasir Kadawo]

Rwanda is in shambles at the moment. They have lost their first game 0:4 to Uganda.

I predict 2:0 to the Ocean Stars.

 

The sport section is not as populated as this section.
