Four teams to vie for final berths tomorrow afternoon
The quality of football displayed in the current Chico/Kashif & Shanghai Secondary Schools Football Tournament over the past weeks has been exemplary but from all appearances the best is yet to come.
The tournament has now reached the semi-final stage and tomorrow afternoon at the Georgetown Football Club (GFC) Ground, Bourda, St George’s Secondary will lock horns with Waramadong, while Ash Education will go head to head with Wismar Multilateral in what is being touted as the calm before the storm.
All four teams have earned their semi-final berths after crowd pleasing displays and the prognosis seems to suggest fierce battles to determine the two top teams that will clash for championship honours.
Waramadong earned its semi-final spot Friday afternoon last at the expense of Charlestown Secondary whom they defeated 3-1 on penalty kicks after finishing regulation time on a 2-2 stalemate. Lyndel Joseph scored both of Waramadong’s goals (12 & 45), while Charlestown’s Shane Morris (39) and Owen James (90th) brought the situation back to equilibrium.
Wismar Multilateral sealed off its semi-final spot after defeating Ash Secondary 5-2; Shane Luckie led the way for the winners with strikes in the 19th, 23th and 29th minutes with support from Ezra Ashbie (65) and Rolex John, three minutes after.
