There were thrills galore at the National Gymnasium on Mandela Avenue in Georgetown last Saturday when the Rock Auto Trans and Spare Parts’ “Legendary Cup” futsal tournament resumed with nail-biters on the cards.

The usual suspects: Back Circle, Sparta Boss and Gold is Money, were among the victors, and booked their tickets to the quarterfinal segment of the tournament.

Gold is Money was the first team to make it to the quarterfinal round, by virtue of an easy 2-0 victory over Kitty. However, it was not that simple for Bent Street and Sparta Boss.

For Gold is Money, Darren Benjamin and Dexroy Adams found the back of the net in the respective 12th and 30th minutes for their 2-0 win.

In game 2, Tiger Bay booked passage by a similar 2-0 margin over Alexander Village. Goals from Deon Alfred (22nd) and Wendell Austin(35th) were responsible for that win.

Another lopsided game saw Stabroek Ballers defeating Future Stars 3-0. It was only until the second segment that Stabroek got to scoring, but when they did, Lennox Cort (24th), Mark Jhallu (28th) and Sean Taylor (29th) each found the back of the net before time expired.

A scoring frenzy ensued when Back Circle opposed Leopold Street in the following encounter. Doubles from Stephon McLean (1st and 2nd), Stephon Reynolds (3rd and 25th), Simeon Moore (14th and 28th) and Shemar Koulen (6th and 26th) were topped off with another goal from Akil Plass in the 30th minute for their 9-0 win.

Bent Street dug deep to get past Beterverwagting in a 1-0 game. Tyrese Dennis’s 11th minute goal was the eventual game winner. Meanwhile, Vengy FC took the experienced Sparta Boss to the penalty mark.

Sparta were up first by virtue of a Jermin Junor strike in the 4th, but Vengy’s reply, which came in the 13th from David Escobar, levelled the scores. Vengy took the lead in the 17th as a result of a Joheis Mendoza strike, but it was not long before Sheldon Shepherd equalized in the 22nd. Mendonza netted another in the 34th, while Shepherd did the same in the 37th for a 3-3 game at the end of regulation time.

At the penalty mark,

Sparta Boss prevailed 3-1.

Adding to the 6 winners, Vengy FC and BV gained passage to the quarterfinals by being the best two losing teams.

The tournament is set to continue this evening at the same venue. The ‘Legendary Cup’ champion will cart off $500,000 and the championship trophy. Second, third, and fourthplaced finishers will receive $250,000, $150,000 and $100,000 respectively.
