– Mohamed’s Enterprise reassures commitment to next tournament
FANS are in for the fight between two of the best street football teams when Bent Street and Sparta Boss collide for the finals of the One-Guyana Futsal Championship.
The two captains met at a press conference yesterday with not much love lost, especially with $1M dollars, courtesy of KFC Guyana, up for grabs in Saturday night’s final at the national park.
Akel Clarke, captain of Bent Street, and Curtez Kellman, captain of Sparta Boss, both members of the country’s National team, the Golden Jaguars, are looking forward to the highly anticipated match.
Despite their camaraderie off the court, the two captains will put their friendship aside to focus on winning the Mohamed’s Enterprise trophy and the coveted first-place prize.
Kellman acknowledges that while Sparta Boss emerged victorious in their previous meeting in the finals of the GFF/Kashif and Shanghai Futsal championship at the Cliff Anderson Sports Hall, Bent Street’s attacking prowess, led by Daniel Wilson, Sheldon Holder and Clive Nobrega, cannot be underestimated.
On the other hand, Clarke believes that Bent Street’s exceptional goalkeeping and attacking skill set displayed throughout the tournament will lead them to victory. With Jermaine Junor, Kellman, and Ryan Hackett leading the scoring for Sparta Boss, it remains to be seen who will come out on top in this exciting final.
Nazar Mohamed, owner of Mohamed’s Enterprise and a long-time friend of the Kashif and Shanghai Organisation, expressed his excitement for the final and reiterated his support for the One-Guyana Futsal tournament.
Apart from the grand prize of $1 million, the second-placed team will receive $500,000, while the third and fourth-placed finishers will take home $200,000 and $100,000, respectively.
While the focus is on the thrilling futsal action, fans can also look forward to entertainment options.
Jamaican DJ and dancehall artiste, Noah Power, will headline a range of local acts expected to entertain the crowd when the curtains come down on the final.
