THE teams who will contest this year’s Limacol Football final are Police FC and Pouderoyen FC.

Both were victorious in their respective semi-final encounters on Sunday evening at the Ministry of Education ground on Carifesta Avenue.

In the first game of the night, it was Santos FC, who were favourites, against the West Demerara side in the centre of the park.

But when the dust settled, it was Pouderoyen who registered the win when it mattered.

The game got off to a tense start and the tension grew as time moved on. At the end of the first half, there was nothing to separate the two teams which made the resumption of the second half even more anticipative.

Amaniki Buntin’s 81st minute strike was enough to finally settle those tense nerves on one side of the field and send the other into a desperate drive to find the equaliser.

However, that was not to be, as the West Demerara side emerged victorious.

The second game of the evening was almost a Carbon copy with Police going up against Riddim Squad but the result was 1-0 in favour of the Georgetown side.

Both sides played through the first half of the game without scoring then Anthio Wallace scored ten minutes into the second half.

Meanwhile, Friday’s third-place playoff will feature Santos FC and Riddim Squad from 19:00hrs
