Abubakar Barry and Alasana Jatta scored their first goal of the season as Gibril Sosseh, Yankuba Minteh, and the Manila Diggers trio, Baboucarr Touray, Mustapha Joof, and Pa Ousman Gai found the back of the net in front of their home fans.

Alasana Yirajang’s assist earned Slovan Bratislava the win, while Ali Sowe provided back-to-back assists.

England
Richarlison and Jan Paul van Hecke’s own goal saved the day for coach Thomas Frank as Tottenham Hotspurs came from 2-0 to secure a draw against Brighton.

Gambian international Yankuba Minteh gave the host the lead in the 7th minute before Swedish
Yasin Ayari’s stunning strike in the 31st minute. Minteh beat Spurs’ offside trap before rounding Vicario and finishing into an empty net with his left foot. Xavi Simons’s introduction kept the seagulls on the edge of their seats as he came close twice.

In the championship, Alfie Devine’s long-range within 30 minutes of play was the difference as Preston North End beat the Rams in front of 30,000 supporters.

Saturday’s defeat for the Rams has seen them drop to third from the bottom in the championship with only five points after six matches played.

In League Two, Notts County beat Crawley 4-0 at home.

Jatta’s dangerous low cross somehow evaded a defender, and the ball ran to safety. Two minutes later, Jatta saw a shot saved at the second attempt after another good display from Jones.

Alasana Jatta found the back of the net for the first time this season as the Gambian powered home from a tight angle to make it 3-0 in the 75th minute.

Rizespor’s slow start in the Turkish Superliga continued as they secured a draw away against Kocaelispor. Ali Sowe assisted Ibrahim Olawoyin for the opener. The host responded immediately through Croatian Bruno Petkovic.

Slovakia
Alasana Yirang has only started two league matches so far; however, he is thriving in the super sub role, assisting twice in six league matches. Yirang came off the bench against DAC 1904 Dunajská Streda. Slovan Bratislava currently occupies the 2nd position of the Slovak Super Liga with 15 points after seven matches.

Austria
Abubakar Barry Barry led Austria Wien’s comeback. The host found themselves trailing 2-0 at halftime. Five minutes into the second half, Barry reduced the deficit. Eggestein 77 and Fisher in the 84th minute completed the comeback. Barry was close to scoring a brace when his left-footed shot from the left side of the box was blocked.

Alieu Conateh has already gotten five goal contributions in six matches following his hat trick against SV Kapfenberg. The Gambino’s left winger scored his first home goal for Amstetten in grand style by netting a hat trick in a space of 39 minutes.

Sweden
Gibril Sosseh scored his second league goal of the season for his side Kalmar FF with a fine low-range shot as they beat Sandviken 4-0 in the Swedish Superettan on Saturday. That was Gibril’s 16th league appearance this season.

North Macedonia
Baboucarr Gaye kept his second clean sheet of the season in the Prva Makedonska Liga following their 1-0 home win over Tikvesh. Baboucarr Gaye went on to make four crucial saves overall; he denied the visitors the leveler when he dived with his legs following a 1v1 situation.

Shkendija currently sits 4th in the Prva Makedonska Liga with six matches played.

Malta
Mustapha Jah scored his second league goal for Floriana as they secured a 2-1 victory away at Marsaxlokk. Jah broke the deadlock in the 39th minute. Floriana sits in 2nd place with 10 points after five matches in the Malta Premier League.

Saudi Arabia
Musa Barrow scored twice and assisted a goal to help his side Al-Taawoun FC beat Al-Faisaly 4-0 to advance to the round of 16 of the King’s Cup on Sunday.

This is the second time Musa has scored a brace and provided an assist in the last three matches.

Philippines

Pa Ousman Gai scored the winner for Manila Diggers on matchday three. Both Gai and Mustapha Joof were on target in the season’s premier; however, it was new signing Baboucarr Touray’s debut goal.
