Mackenzie High are chasing their first title, while Wisburg is going after their second; the match is anticipated to be a humdinger of a battle between the archrivals.
The third place match which precedes the championship game will see former champs Christainburg/Wismar Secondary taking on the Linden Technical Institute from 17:00hrs at the Mackenzie Sports Club ground.
In semi final action on Tuesday at the same venue, three-time and defending champs Christainburg/Wismar Secondary went down to Wisburg Secondary on account of Brentley Allicock’s 15th minute strike which ended up being a golden strike.
Finding themselves trailing on account of an own goal, Christainburg/Wismar tried their utmost to squeeze out an equalizing goal but smart and stoic defending by the Wisburg side ensured they held on for the win and their third try at a championship, which they won once already.
In the other semifinal, Mackenzie High School (MHS) put together masterful touches coupled with expert midfield build-ups to dominate a feisty Linden Technical Institute squad which at times seemed mesmerized by their opponent’s play.
MHS went on to win the match 2-0 thanks to goals from Anthony Allicock in the 36th minute and Jessie Marshall in the 62nd minute.
