Limacol KO Football Tournament…
With four teams having now been knocked out of the competition, the 2018 Limacol KO Football tournament is now shaping up to culminate in what will surely be a scintillating final.
The knockout aspect of the competition will continue tonight, when four teams battle for their spot in the upcoming semis.
In the first matchup, slated for 18:00hrs, Group B’s Riddim Squad will encounter Group C’s Beacons in a cracking affair. Although they have not previously met, both teams display similar playing styles, attacking at all cost. And while neither team should have any trouble with scoring, thanks to impressive striking abilities, they will each have to work harder on their defence to ensure the best possible result for themselves.
At 20:00 hrs, Group A’s Police will be coming out to arrest Group B’s Georgetown Football Club (GFC). They have not met as yet, but both are among the tournament’s front-runners in their respective groups; thus this matchup will definitely be the highlight of the night.
GFC are famous at resisting arrest; they have never been taken without a fight, especially since their strength lies in their method of attack. But although the Police have faltered early on, these lawmen have shown — in their 6-0 defeat of Pele — that they can match any striker of the ball. Given this fact, GFC had better keep their defence tight.
After tonight’s games, Mahaica Determinators will return, on Thursday September 27, to battle Pouderoyen, whilst Santos FC take on Buxton Stars.
The semifinal, which would pit the quarterfinal winners against each other, is expected to be played on Sunday, September 30.
The final night of play will be on October 5, when two teams will go head-to-head for the right to collect $600,000.
