Eritrea Beats Somalia 3-1- Through to Quarterfinals

Eritrea’s Red Sea Boys beat Somalia 3-1 in Group “B” of the Orange CECAFA Senior Challenge Cup in Kenya. The victory over Somalia ensures that Eritrea goes through to the quarterfinals of the competition.

The return of the The Red Sea Boys is evidence that a good team can always learn and build up its strengths after loosing a match. It is never too late as long as the team spirit is kept high. Brazilian soccer champ Pelé once said, “I am constantly being asked about individuals. The only way to win is as a team. Football is not about one or two or three star players.

Somalia’s defeat means that the national team dropped out of the competition flying back home on Monday. Eritrea finished second in the group and will play on Tuesday against Tanzania in the quarterfinals. Thumbs up to the Read Sea Boys- The whole nation is beside you.
