Played in front the usual large crowd at the Haslington Tarmac, Sparta Boss, Uprising, Plaisance and North East La Penitence secured their places in the knockout round when the Guinness Cage Street-ball Championship which is dubbed ‘East Coast best versus the rest’ continued on Saturday night.
Once again Jermin Junior was the main threat for the Georgetown giant, Sparta Boss that defeated Haslington Hypers 2-0, bagging both goals in the match in the fourth and ninth minutes.

Meanwhile, crowd favourite Uprising dismantled Beterverwagting [BV]-B 3-1. It was a slick display from the young team as David Wilson led the charge with a brace in the third and 12th minutes.
He was assisted by a Phillip Williams conversion in the sixth minute. For the loser, Edun Fraser recorded a consolation goal in the seventh minute.
Similarly, North East La Penitence dismissed Victoria Church Yard 3-1. Keifer Brandt tallied a hat-trick in the fifth, eighth and 10th minutes. For the loser, Shemar McPherson scored in the third minute.
Meanwhile, Plaisance stunned Belfield Warriors 1-0 on penalty kicks, after normal time ended scoreless. It was a cagey affair, which played into the hands of the Plaisance unit.
Round-of-16 stage and quarterfinal round will kick-off on Saturday 25th at the same venue.
