Yannick Ndilabaye runs at them all day

Successful dribbles: 28. There is a particular sort of despair on a full-back's face by the seventieth minute, and it was on display.

Match3 Nov 2029

Whatever happens, Elect Sport do not lose

9 games unbeaten now. Some were earned and some were survived, but a habit is forming — and habits are the hardest thing in football to play against.

Squad5 Nov 2029

Tempers go at Elect Sport

Ismaila Mayaki was at the centre of it, and by the time it was pulled apart there were three or four others involved. Training grounds are small places and long seasons make them smaller.

Squad5 Nov 2029

Ferdinand Gassina falls out with a teammate over standards

The oldest argument in any dressing room and the only one that is genuinely about football: one man thinks another is not putting enough in. It is also the row a manager privately does not mind having happened.

The afternoon belonged to Frédéric Djoita

7.46, and no serious argument from anybody who was there. Elect Sport had eleven men on the pitch and one of them decided how it went.

A place in the month's best eleven for Yannick Ndilabaye

Four or five weekends of consistency, judged against everybody in the division doing his job. Yannick Ndilabaye has come out of that comparison in the side, and Elect Sport have had the benefit of every one of those afternoons.

Squad5 Nov 2029

Gérard Nodjiram has become a man the manager trusts

Nobody at Elect Sport will say this on the record and the team sheets have been saying it for weeks. There is a small group in every squad who get picked when the fixture is difficult, and he has joined it.

Market5 Nov 2029

Raul Chandra told to find a new club

“They were honest with me, and I would rather know.” Raul Chandra has been informed he is not in the manager's thinking at Elect Sport.

Match3 Nov 2029

Elect Sport draw a blank against Renaissance

The crowd waited for a goal that never came. Renaissance defended in numbers and left with what they came for, and the two sides could be playing still without troubling a scorer.

Match13 Oct 2029

Elect Sport run riot against Galactik

4‑1, and the margin flattered nobody — it could have carried another goal or two without complaint. Afternoons like this are why people keep coming.

Squad15 Oct 2029

Abakar Haroun Mahamat breaks a bone — 20 days out

Brutal, unambiguous and, for all the horror of the moment, usually less career-shaped than the ligament everybody fears more. 20 days, a clean timeline, and a return date somebody can actually plan around.

Squad15 Oct 2029

Frédéric Djoita takes the match ball home

3 goals in one afternoon from one man. The other players were also present, a witness confirmed.

Player ratings15 Oct 2029

Age has not caught Mahamat Harouna yet — 8.59

At 35 he is supposed to be managing his minutes. Instead he was marked 8.59 and looked, for ninety minutes, exactly like the player everybody remembers.

Match13 Oct 2029

Elect Sport make it 3 in a row

Momentum is a hard thing to buy and an easy thing to lose, and right now Elect Sport have 3 straight wins of it.

Squad15 Oct 2029

A move Kenneth Onyango would have made for nothing

There is a version of every career where the player ends up somewhere he chose rather than somewhere that chose him. Kenneth Onyango is living that version at Elect Sport, and it tends to show in the first month.

Squad15 Oct 2029

Words at Elect Sport training over how hard people work

Somebody said out loud what several people had been thinking. Ferdinand Gassina is at the centre of it, and the squad will now find out whether the standard rises or the pair of them simply stop speaking.

Player ratings15 Oct 2029

One of those days for Frédéric Djoita

There is a version of this player everybody suspected was in there, and on this evidence it is. 8.30, and no argument anywhere in the ground.

Market15 Oct 2029

Elect Sport buy the years ahead of Kenneth Onyango

He is 20, and the scouting reports agree on the only line that matters: the ceiling. Signings like this are lottery tickets written by professionals.
