Sierra Leone: Bangura’s Zürich suffers heavy defeat to young boys

Sierra Leone skipper Umaru Zingalay Bangura was substituted on in the 46th minute as BSC Young Boys thrashed the city-based club 5-0 at home on last weekend.

Bangura, who has been in and out of the first team in recent weeks replaced Stephan Seiller.

It’s worth mentioning that head coach Ludovic Magnin’s men got out of a ten-day quarantine to play against the leaders without previous team training.

The Swiss league leaders were 2-0 up at the break with the opening goals from Miralem Sulejmani and Jean-Pierre Nsame. After the break, Young Boys extended their lead with three more goals.

J.P. Nsame doubled his tally before he completed his hat-trick in the 48th and 59th minutes respectively.

Marvin Spielmann ensured the visitors take home maximum points with their fifth in the 73rd minute. The FC Zurich’s next outing is away to FC Lugano next Wednesday, July 22.
