President Weah’s appearance along with some of his former teammates, who participated in the 1996 and 2002 African Cup of Nations in South Africa and Mali respectively, turned the Antoinette Tubman Stadium in a scene of cheers against Grand Kru. But the former Lone Star players, who guided Liberia to two Nations Cup finals, rejuvenated after going a goal down with some classic displayed. Oliver Makor and Prince Daye showed some brilliant attacking prowess, while Weah displayed an act of genius in the middle of the park as his passes exposed the Grand Kru defense. Weah, a Ballon d’Or winner, side came close to levelling proceedings but Isaac Tondo’s effort was brilliantly saved by goalkeeper Rufus Gayflor. Grand Kru County might not understand the script as they regained the lead through Kokowleh Nimely.
