Guinness ‘Greatest of the Streets’ Futsal Competition…Former champs Back Circle beat Sparta Boss
Former national champions Back Circle, who became the first team to represent
Part of the action in the Guinness ‘Greatest of the Streets’ Futsal Competition on Tuesday at the National Cultural Centre Tarmac.
Guyana at the Caribbean Street Challenge Tournament, sent a warning to all those in their path to glory after knocking off one of the pre-tournament favourites Sparta Boss 2-1 in their marquee encounter on Tuesday night, at the National Cultural Centre Tarmac.
Playing in the Georgetown Zone of the Guinness ‘Greatest of the Streets’ Futsal Competition, Sparta Boss got off to a fast start when the prolific Sheldon Shepherd fired into an empty goal after just two minutes.
However, Back Circle responded three minutes later through their experienced Captain Andy Duke, who raced on to a pass following a counterattack to boot into an empty goal to draw level.
Just before the half, Jermaine Beckles exhibited crafty skill, pushing and pulling the ball back, avoiding a flailing attempt to tackle from a Sparta Boss defender, before tapping into an empty net.
The second half saw both teams attacking with menace, but the savvy back Circle unit held firm until the final whistle sounded to earn a morale boosting win that should ignite confidence in their camp going forward.
