– Retrieve Tarmac in Linden will see only four team advancing

ExxonMobil (Guyana) Futsal Championship is set to decide their semifinalists tonight at the Retrieve Hard court in Linden.
Kaieteur Sprots – The Retrieve Tarmac in Linden is set to erupt with energy this evening as the ExxonMobil Guyana Futsal Championship trims the competition down to its final four contenders. With semi-final berths at stake, the four quarterfinal matchups promise a night of tactical intensity, raw determination, and the unforgiving reality of win-or-go-home hard-court football.
The action kicks off at 20:00hrs with DC Ballers facing Figgy FC. While it may not carry the spotlight of the later fixtures, this clash is expected to deliver pure grit. DC Ballers have reached this stage through disciplined teamwork and a shared offensive effort, while Figgy FC appears to be peaking at just the right moment after stringing together crucial wins. In a match likely to be decided by composure, the team that limits mistakes and executes on set pieces should punch their ticket to the final four.
Up next, Silver Bullets take aim at Bombers in a showdown that promises fireworks. Bombers have lived up to their name with aggressive, free-flowing play and dominating spells of possession. But Silver Bullets counter with ruthless efficiency, known for clinical finishing and a disciplined counter-attacking structure that punishes even the slightest defensive lapse. Tonight, will determine which of these dangerous sides continues their surge toward the title.
The night’s marquee clash follows, as defending champions YMCA square off against the Salah Family. YMCA has looked every bit the reigning champion, managing tempo, utilizing their depth, and maintaining composed intensity through the group stage. Salah Family, meanwhile, enters as a potential dark horse; leaning on individual brilliance, rapid transitions, and an attacking flair that can destabilize any opponent. An upset here could set the stage for a new champion, but YMCA will be determined to ensure their title defense stays on track.
The final showdown at 23:00hrs pits Hard-knocks against Young Gunners in a compelling contrast of styles: experience and resilience versus youthful energy and precision. Hard-knocks have proven they can absorb pressure and grind out results with the help of their seasoned core. Young Gunners, however, will rely on their speed, constant movement, and high-tempo pressing, attributes that give them a slight edge, especially with several match-winners in their ranks. This one could go either way.
By the end of the night, four teams will move one step closer to glory, while four others will see their 2025 campaign come to an end.
This year’s tournament purse is significant: the champions will walk away with $1,500,000; runners-up earn $750,000; third place pockets $350,000; and fourth place receives $200,000—each accompanied by the corresponding accolades.
The tournament’s Most Valuable Player will also have the chance to ride off with a brand-new motorcycle. Additionally, a $300,000 academic grant will be awarded to a player or fan to support their educational pursuits, with each team required to nominate a candidate for the scholarship.
