Gor were set to play Sudan side, Al Hilal this afternoon in a high profile friendly but the 26-time Sudan champions cancelled the duel yesterday evening citing injuries incurred by some of their stars. Gor had won all their pre-season friendly matches and carried their good run into the premier league over the weekend, whipping Nakumatt 4-0 in their opening match to launch their title defence campaign on a positive note. Gor assistant secretary general, Ronald Ngala, confirmed the cancellation of the friendly which their opponent said was engineered by the injuries sustained over the weekend. “The match will not go as planned since Al Hilal have opted out. Our journey to West Africa hangs in the balance and we may cancel it if we fail to get funds on time.
