Defending champions Ol Skool Ballers continued where they left off last Wednesday with another gutsy performance en route to a 4-3 sudden death penalty win over Hypers in what was an enthralling battle after regulation time had ended 2-2.
Perennial small goal football favourites, Sparta Boss, didn’t have such a good night on Wednesday and are facing elimination in the group stage of the second annual Three Peat Promotions/Guinness Cage competition after suffering their second consecutive defeat on Wednesday night at the Haslington Market tarmac.
Played before a large crowd that included top officials from major sponsor Queensway Security Services and Repsol representatives, the country’s most decorated team in the shorter version will have to win their next encounter by a large margin and hope to go through as one of four best third placed teams.
Following a cruel 3-1 defeat at the hands of a resolute Alexander Village team that never looked intimidated against the big name ‘Sparta Boss’ especially with the absence of their star forward, Gregory ‘Jackie Chan’ Richardson, Sparta will now play the home team Haslington Hypers, who will also be aiming to win big to enter the round of sixteen set for Saturday following consecutive losses as well.
Some of the teams that have advanced to the knockout also include Kitty Hustlers, Vryheid’s Lust, Albouystown and Leopold Street.
The five-day tournament is being dubbed ‘the East Coast Best versus the Rest’ with teams from the East Coast corridor tackling the finest selection from Georgetown in an effort to foster integration among the participating communities and to create a better understanding among its inhabitants.
Among the entities in support of the cause are: Banks DIH under its Guinness and Power Wine brands, Clarks footwear giants Chetsons, E-Networks Inc., KSM Investments, Yhip’s Bakery, Brass Aluminium & Cast Iron Foundry (BACIF), Ray’s Auto Sales, Y.K. Investments, Trophy Stall, Express Shipping, Woodpecker Products, National Sports Commission, ‘C’ Division of the Guyana Police Force, Jai Signs & Auto Designs, Gaming Authority, Julius Variety Store and C & C Prestigious Styles.
