Sullay Kaikai helps Cambridge win over Accrington Stanley

The Sierra Leone International was on target as Cambridge defeated Accrington Stanley to enter the League Two play-off positions and increased their unbeaten streak to 11 matches across all competitions.

The home side generated the fewest chances in the first half, with Louis Appere sending a header well off target following a cross from Liam Bennett after 12 minutes.  

An Adam Mayor corner nearly went directly in, but was punched away by Ollie Wright, before the U’s opened the scoring in the fifth minute of stoppage time.  

Sullay Kaikai had the opportunity to deliver a pass across the goal, which found unmarked defender James Gibbons, who struck it home past Wright.  

Ten minutes after the break, James Brophy set Kaikai free on the left, but Wright parried his shot away; however, Kaikai made it 2-0 on the hour when he headed in Mayor’s cross from close range.  

Accrington posed almost no threat, with their best chances occurring 17 minutes from the end as Conor Grant’s free-kick was deflected wide, followed by a powerful shot from Dan Martin that was blocked.  

Cambridge arrives at Christmas with only one home loss in 15 matches this season.

Mustapha Bundu suffers a collateral ligament injury

Mustapha Bundu suffers a collateral ligament injury

Hannover will end the first half of the German Bundesliga 2 without two key players. Mustapha Bundu has a medial collateral ligament injury from the last match against Preußen Münster.

The 28-year-old left the game in the 72nd minute and missed Saturday’s home match against VfL Bochum and the away game against 1. FC Nürnberg on December 21.

This injury ends his first half of the season early. Husseyn Chakroun will also miss the rest of the year.

The 21-year-old had to leave the field in the 25th minute due to a hamstring injury after a long stride following a challenge.

Head coach Christian Titz commented on the injuries, saying, “That’s a real shame, but that happens in football. We have options in the squad, and we have confidence in our players.”

Despite these challenges, he remains hopeful about future matches, stating, “We’ve built the squad so that the players can respond well to any situation.”

FC Nürnberg part ways with Palace youngster Hindolo Mustapha

FC Nürnberg and Hindolo Mustapha have mutually decided to part ways after just six months, as the club announced this afternoon.

The 19-year-old’s loan spell with the 2. Bundesliga side has been cut short. Unfortunately, Mustapha did not make any professional appearances during his time at Nürnberg and will be returning to Crystal Palace for now.

“Hindolo clearly possesses talent, but things didn’t play out as we had all hoped at 1. FC Nürnberg. It was also important for the player’s future to clear things up early on and reach a solution that suited everyone,” stated sporting director Joti Chatzialexiou.

The Sierra Leone international had previously faced criticism from coach Miroslav Klose back in November, which is believed to have strained their working relationship.

Sierra Leone’s Sullay Kaikai helps Cambridge draw with MK Dons

Sullay Kaikai returned to haunt his old club, MK Dons, by scoring a brilliant equaliser that helped Cambridge secure a point in a League Two clash.

The hosts took the lead in the 42nd minute thanks to Callum Paterson, but Kaikai struck back midway through the second half, allowing Cambridge to extend their unbeaten league streak to six games.

Cambridge’s Ben Knight was denied by keeper Craig MacGillivray, while Kelland Watts narrowly missed in a chaotic goalmouth scramble.

Just before half-time, the Dons took the lead with Paterson scoring from a pass by Liam Kelly. Cambridge had chances too, including Liam Bennett’s close-range miss.

In the 66th minute, former MK Dons winger Kaikai equalised with a powerful shot from outside the box. In the final moments, Aaron Collins nearly won it for Cambridge but hit the side-netting, resulting in a draw.

The Sierra Leone International joined Cambridge United in League One on a one-year deal on 28 June 2024. On 10 June 2025, the club announced that he had signed a new two-year contract.
