Sparta Boss through to quarter-final

Sparta Boss secured a quarter-final berth in the Xtreme Cleaners/GT Beer Gold Rush Futsal Championship after defeating Sophia 3-0 on Thursday at the National Gymnasium, Mandela Avenue.

Goals on either side of half-time silenced the large partisan crowd. In the process, Sparta Boss secured their passage to the ‘Elite Eight’ round in what was effectively a must-win encounter.

Solomon Austin opened the scoring in the fourth minute, bundling the ball over the goal-line after an initial strike from Gregory Richardson struck the crossbar and fell into his path.
