Swag Entertainment’s Clive Nobrega in action in his side’s 2 – 1 win over Universal Ballers in the Linden Guinness ‘Greatest of the Streets’.
After Swag Entertainment edged Speightland 2 – 1 on penalty kicks, and Universal Ballers blast-in four unanswered goals against Anybody Got It in the two semi-finals, streetball-crazed fans knew they were in for a mouth-watering treat in the finals.
With $400,000 on the line, five minutes into the contest, Mortimer Giddings sent Universals into the lead, but his side’s celebration was short-lived, as Deon Charter (9’) and Colwyn Drakes (13’) found the back of the ‘small goal’ to secure their side’s three-peat of titles.
For their effort, Universal Ballers settled for $200,000.
Speightland, via sudden death penalty kicks defeated Anybody Got It 4-3 to finish third and the accompanying $150,000. Anybody Got It received $80,000 for ending the tournament in fourth place.
