I think that I am almost through the last batch of internationals. I still have two games on my list, though:
Vietnam- Bangladesh (26.03)
Burkina Faso - Guinea-Bissau (31.03)
If anyone has anything on these, I will gladly add them. As always, you people have been amazing. Thank you so much!
Amazing. I am always hoping that old data for african countries becomes available, but not a lot is happening. Looking very much forward to these.
I've found a bit from Liberia recently, but it's a little earlier than you've got around to adding on the site.
26/03/26 Vietnam 3 Bangladesh 0 Hang Day, Hanoi Mario CHEUNG (Hong Kong)

Missing player:
Wikipedia lists his name as Bengally Sylla, while RSSSF lists his name as Bangally Sylla. Born in 1951 and died in 2013.
27 caps and 2 goals for Guinea between 1974 and 1981 according to RSSSF. Played in AFCON 1976, 1978, and 1980.
Played as a left-winger for Hafia FC in Guinea between 1972 and 1982.

We already have him:
Bangaly Sylla
given name spelled with only one L, which is generally the more frequent version of that name.
I know it can be tricky sometimes to find players when there are different spellings and/or very common names. What you can do for example is to check Guinea 1980 NFT page to take a look at the players for similiar spelled players. All AfCoN final tournaments and all historic matches starting from 1980 are online, so by the info' you already had NFT must have him. More players and more caps to Bengally Sylla will come when NFT works the history backwards, now working at 1980.
And a side note, I read several times that you wrote a player has played xx matches scoring yy goals in variours saisons or overall in all competitions. That's some nice to know facts which I enjoy reading, but NFT database can't make any use of it as NFT needs appearances stats limited to a specific season AND counting only the proper league. Having accumulated data over two seasons may help when getting one of these two seasons and by doing the maths we'll have the other season as well, but overall data alone is not useable.

Thank you and no wonder I had no idea he was already on here. I am just unsure of exact caps data where NFT says 22 caps and 6 goals while RSSSF says 27 caps and 2 goals. I am wondering more about the discrepancy of goals.
Info on the 5 May 1982 Guinea 1:1 Senegal match.
Venue appears to be Unknown in Yaoundé, Cameroon.
Tournament appears to be the 1982 African Friendship Cup, also known as the 1982 Cameroon Tournament. Attendance was 40,500 if that helps.

Should I keep adding this data since you enjoy reading it and it might become useful one day in the future?

However you like. The chance it will help in the future is slim. So, procede how you want.
Also match attendance isn't tracked on NFT.
