THREE more matches are on this evening in the Petra-organised, Corona-sponsored invitational football tournament at the Georgetown Football Club ground.
In the first of the three, the Western Tigers, fresh off their Limacol 2017 win, return to action against Black Pearl FC with both teams expected to produce a tooth-and-nail battle from 17:00hrs.
Meanwhile, two hours later, the host club GFC will have to defend their turf from fellow Georgetown side Camptown FC in a battle of rivalry dating back years.
In the final game of the evening, Police FC will take on Beacons FC.
The tournament will feature the 12 top teams in the Georgetown region, playing for $1M in cash and prizes
It will take a round-robin knock-out format where the top four teams in the two groups of six will advance.
The tournament was initially set to kick-off on June 30 but had its first round last Sunday with Northern Rangers and Santos FC tasting victory.
The Rangers were in fine form as they disposed of East Veldt 2-0 with an own goal in the 22nd minute and Sunil Logan’s 64th minute strike, as they opened the tournament on a high.
Game two, on the other hand, proved a goal-less stalemate as Flamingo tackled Riddim Squad.
Game three was an absolute firecracker as Santos downed Pele 4-0.
Robby McCloggan’s 9th minute strike gave the lead to Santos before Kenroy Deminick’s 11th minute shot extended that lead in a good one-two fashion which lasted until the end of the half.
However, Santos were by no means finished. A Josh Parvattan’s 56th minute strike took the score to three-nil while Orin Yarde added the final for good measure in the 90+2.
