Videos: Gambian Gamble Paying off for New England



Mansally to Nyassi, then Nyassi to Mansally.



Taking a page from Donovan and Beckham's reciprical hijinks a week ago, New England's 2 young African aces stuck it to Kansas City last night. While most of us were getting our annual CONCACAF reality check, these two were complimenting each other like PB & J. It's still early days but...is it too late to get that Taylor Twellman money from Preston North End?

I think that's actually Khano Smith making the cross over to Nyassi.

Ruins the rhythm of that sentence - Smith to Nyassi then Nyassi to Mansally.

point is still made. The Gambians are back.

What's sad is that both of these Gambian gems are only making $17K.. Big return on investment for NE, but those two guys are getting ripped off.

Mansally is on the senior roster, Nyassi is on the developmental.

Although if they both keep it up all year, I see Nyassi being moving up to the senior roster.

I lived in The Gambia for two years. It's poor even by African standards. But the people are great. When Gambia got to the quarterfinals of the U 17 world cup with wins over teams like Brazil you know they have some great young talent.
