Why?
• How fast can I access sports information?
• Where and how can I find the sports results??
Amadou is living in Senegal. He is a fan of the national championship. He supports the Dakar 1 team. He cannot go to the stadium because it is too expensive. He generally waits for the newspaper of the next day to get the game results.
Reporting of sport results requires a sophisticated infrastructure that is taken for granted in the developed world
