The ExxonMobil Futsal tournament, organised by New Era Entertainment, is diving headfirst into the heart-pounding action as the top eight teams gear up for an epic showdown on Wednesday at the Retrieve Hard Court in Linden.
With a dazzling $1 million winner’s purse up for grabs in the tournament, at 19:00h, the undefeated Young Gunners, rulers of Group A, are set to go toe-to-toe with the slick second-placers from Group C, the Money Team.
Next up in the frenzy is a face-off between the Group B winners, LA Ballers, and the tenacious DC Ballers, who clinched second place in Group D.
In another corner of the futsal arena, Group C standouts YMCA are making waves, but standing in their way to glory is the formidable Hard Knocks, a team that know a thing or two about giving their opponents a run for their money.
