FUTSAL action continued at the Pouderoyen tarmac in the West Demerara edition of the Colors/Guinness Greatest of the Streets Football with nine intense games on Tuesday evening. In the first game of the night, Money Team were too much for their Goed Fortuin counterparts, winning by three goals to one thanks to a hat-trick from Amoniki Buntin (5th, 7th, 18th).
Game two was contrasting in nature with the eventual winners Harmony Ballers getting the better of Best Road Ballers 2-1 on penalties.
Jetty Gunners moved on to the next round after Shane Hamilton’s 12th minute strike helped his side past Police.
Game four featured a 2-0 drubbing for Bagotstown Warriors at the hands of Hustlers thanks to John Waldron (2nd) and Rastaf Oselmo (17th).
Young Ballers of Crane saw the combined efforts of Lindsay Scott (11th); Tefon Welcome (17th) and Oswin Boyce (19th) push them past the Gas Team.
It took penalties to declare Goal Getters winners after their match against Classic 7 ended 1-1 after regulation time.
Goal Getters’ Kevin Gordon had his fourth minute strike cancelled out by Daniel Gibson (9th) before the 2-0 penalty result.
Hustlers made the best of game seven to win 2-0 thanks to Donovan Francis (7th) and John Waldron (11th) while it took Golden Warriors’ sudden-death penalties to move past Shattaville Gunners.
