November 27, 2009 (BOR) – Nassir Football Club beats Freedom FC or Hurriya 3-1 Friday in a match organized to coincide with Eid al-Adha, a Muslim greatest festival in Bor.
The late afternoon match between local teams was organized by Muslims and state government.
Nassir midfielder extended the favorites lead in the first-half with a long closed forty meters from goalpost. Freedom FC early equalizer in the early second-half was smashed by Nassir FC double extensions minutes later.
Playing at the clearly dry Bor Town Freedom Square – a multipurpose ground players has nothing to demand extra time because the pitch is rough and a foul is an injured.
However, sport fans gave a tremendous support in a game where players’ inexperience was clear.
The Eid al-Adha organizers also invited traditional dancers from all tribal group but only Anyuak dancers performed late evening. As the local entertainments fade with increasing influence of modern sports, Dinka Bor dancers or audience dally before returning home unsatisfied.
Most youths now prefer passive involvement in traditional dance and only a minor number is active.

Bor are still addicted to arab Islamic culture living muslim religion. Racist reporter Philip Thon tell your people to adopt christian as their way of life. Shame people never learn from mistake, don’t you know that your madness behind arab culture has brought all the long struggle.
Logic far from tribal criticism

… entertaining evils. When will the muslims entertain christians. I’m a Dinka, but I don’t like what you guys did. I agreed with Mr. Logic Boy today. That is really betrayal of our fallen heroes. May their blood seek vengance on those who betray them.

Dear Logic dog and Buata2
You are really still in the darkness of slaves Equatorians who know nothing about politics.If you want to defeat your enemy or whoever against you;then you have to be closed to each other.
Dinkas have no compromise and they will not be having compromise with Arabs.I Doubt you people from Equatoria but it doesn’t matter because you are just our barking dogs.
I like hitting the nail on the head though you hate me,my people love me so much.Do I care about coward people who just eat and sleep.
Dinka’s boy and I must discipline you properly otherwise.
