Keen contests expected as teams jostle for places in elimination round

Quarterfinal destinies will be decided tonight at the National Gymnasium on Mandela Avenue when the final group stage matches in the 2nd edition of the Petra Organization/Gt Beer Futsal Championship commences.

Mathematically, every team still has a chance to progress to the elimination round although qualification for some teams will depend on several results. In the first matchup at 19:30hrs, Agricola will lock horns with Back Circle. A win for Back Circle will seal their place in the next round.

A draw could also prove enough especially if a winner is found in the Tiger Bay and Sparta matchup. A loss could be tricky especially if Sparta wins then the results of the other groups in pursuit of the third place qualifier berth will have to be taken into consideration.

On the other hand, Agricola needs several factors to go their way to progress. Firstly they need a heavy win against their opponents and secondly they need Tiger Bay to win by a large margin against Sparta Boss.
