Midfielder Ismael Sawadogo returned to the field in the match between Simba and Ihefu on Monday of this week, but was taken off after 26 minutes and sparked discussions online, but the player has opened up that he will continue to fight for his team whenever he gets a chance
In the game played at Higland Estate Stadium, in Mbeya, Simba won 2-0 with all goals being scored by a dangerous striker, Jean Baleke and avoided the embarrassment that found Yanga and Azam sleeping on the field in front of the locals Ihefu.
Sawadogo was signed by Simba on a two-year contract from Morocco's Difaa El Jadida, he has had an unsatisfactory start in the Simba team
The star citizen of Burkina Faso has said that being released from the field early is a normal thing and that it cannot take away his goals
"I can't leave the game, I understand being released from the squad is usually not the first to be released early, I understand that and it doesn't take away from me that I have the ability to play, I need more time to be able to show my ability"
"I was removed, maybe I didn't do what the coach wanted to see me do, but I believe in myself and I want to be given a chance to play so that I can show my abilities," said Sawadogo
Sawadogo has said that it is still too early for him to talk about whether the league is difficult because he has not had enough time to play, but the important thing is to see Simba get good results
"I haven't had the chance to play many games but I've been watching it's a good league with competition but I can't explain its challenges because I don't get the chance to play what I enjoy, the team gets results and I wish to get time to play to show what I have," Sawadogo was quoted as saying and Mwanaspoti
