Abdoulaye Demba (also Abdoulai Demba; born 2 November 1976) is a retired Malian footballer who played as a forward.
Club career
On 1 July 2002, Demba signed for English club Yeovil Town on a one-year contract with the option for a second, after being top scorer for K.V. Oostende in the Belgian third division (9 goals in 15 games).[1] He had briefly been on trial at Yeovil in the previous season.[2]
He made his debut for the Conference club on 17 August 2002 in a 2–2 draw with Gravesend & Northfleet at Huish Park. He came on as a 16th-minute substitute for Adam Stansfield, who had suffered a serious injury.[3] With Stansfield ruled out long-term,[4] Demba made his first start three days later in a 1–2 defeat at Barnet, playing 70 minutes before being replaced by Chris Giles.[5]
On 14 September, he scored his first goal for the club to rescue a 2–2 draw away at Stevenage Borough, having been brought on at half time in place of Anthony Tonkin by manager Gary Johnson and heading in a cross by Lee Johnson.[6] A week later in a 3–0 home win over Halifax Town, he was brought down for a penalty by opposing goalkeeper Lee Butler, resulting in a red card, but was himself sent off for foul and abusive language, and his teammate Terry Skiverton also dismissed.[7] He scored five further goals in the season, all in the next three games: one in a 4–0 win over Woking three days later, a first-half hat-trick in a 6–0 win against Southport on 5 October, and the opener in a 1–2 draw at Burton Albion three days after that.[8][9] Yeovil won the Conference, earning promotion to The Football League for the first time.[10]
International career
Demba represented Mali at the 2004 Africa Cup of Nations in Tunisia. His first appearance came in their second group game on 30 January, a 3–1 win over Burkina Faso, replacing Soumaila Coulibaly in added time.[11] Three days later he started in place of Coulibaly, in a 1–1 draw with Senegal.[12] Mali eventually came fourth.[13]
