Mahaica face GFC; Rangers take on Santos

A DOUBLE-header of intense action is set for this evening at the Ministry of Education ground on Carifesta Avenue when the semi-final stage of the Turbo KO football tournament gets going.

In the first game of the night Mahaica Determinators take on GFC for a spot in the final. The Georgetown-based side will have to ensure two things are done if they are to secure victory.
They must accumulate an early lead over their East Coast counterparts if they are to set the plan in motion and they must be able to defend well later in the game.

Mahaica have shown their dominance in their tournament well after the 75th minute with a number of their goals coming then. Notoriously shaky on the start, the Determinators need to get ahead as early as possible.

Meanwhile, game two is an all-Georgetown affair as Northern Rangers play Santos. The Rangers have been increasing their team play gradually and this semi will definitely be a test of that.

Their ability to play patient football could be a major asset here when they come up against Santos. Meanwhile, the pace of Santos is not something that should be underestimated. Their ability to play on the break and make opponents pay for the slightest mistake could mean a quick game-changer.

However it goes, after tonight the finalists will be decided.
