With $500,000 up for grabs, the Mohamed’s Enterprise/New Era Futsal tournament continues on Thursday evening with quarterfinal action at the McKenzie Sports Club (MSC) hard court.
The first quarterfinal will kick off at 18:30h and will pit Customs FC against Silver Bullets for one of the four semifinal spots. NK Ballers will clash with Nutman All-stars in the second game, while Hard Knocks take on Good Fellas in the third quarterfinal.
Swag Entertainment and Spaniards will do battle for the final semifinal spot in the feature game on Thursday night for a chance to go one step closer to the grand finale that will be contested on Boxing Night (December 26th).
Action at the MSC Hardcourt last Saturday night
In the final round of group stage matches last Saturday at the same venue, NK Ballers got past Plantain All-Stars 4-1. Deon George scored two goals for the winners, while Joel Mackinnon and Paul Gittens provided back up with a goal each. Toyo Lewis scored the lone goal for the All-Stars.
In the second match, Colwyn Drakes bagged a brace that allowed Swag Entertainment to edge Team Red Line 2-1 in their match. Shemar Savoury netted the solitary goal for Red Line.
The penultimate game proved to be the most exciting game of the night as fans witnessed seven goals being netted in a devastating one-sided match up that saw Spaniards steamroll Royal Warriors 7-0. In that game, Raphael Edwards and national midfielder Curtez Kellman netted a brace each, while Kenneth Opara, Daren Benjamin and David Chanda both scored a goal apiece. The final game on Saturday was a perfect climax as Young Kingz clipped Customs FC in a cliffhanger of a match that eventually finished 3-2. On the scoresheet for Kingz were Rondell Arthur, Denzil Pryce and Marvin Sullivan and in reply for Customs FC, were Frank Gordon and Stephen Roberts.
