The Georgetown Football Association (GFA)/ Banks Beer Knockout Cup round of 16 matches continues today at the Tucville Community ground with a doubleheader.
Rescheduled from the Mackenzie Sports Club ground in Linden, the feature contest at 20:00hrs will see BK Western Tigers opposing Linden unit Milerock FC in what promises to be an exciting battle.
Steamrolling Kwak-wani Strikers 6-1 in their opening fixture, the West Ruimveldt giants will rely on the trio of Hubert Pedro,
Trevon Lythcott and Solomon Austin to lead the way as they attempt to seal a quarterfinal’s berth.
Scrapping to a hard fought 1-0 win over Beacons FC in their opening encounter, Milerock and their trident of Clarence Huggins, Jermaine Grandison and Jermaine Fordyce will aim to fashion a major upset when opening whistle sounds.
In what could evolve into an intriguing affair, the opening fixture at 18:00hrs will see the Guyana Defence Force (GDF) taking aim at Netrockers FC.
Defeating Netrockers 4-1 in last year’s quarterfinal matchup, the army will once again look to the trio of Eusi Phillips, Delroy Fraser and Royan Morrison to power them to victory in a fixture that promises to be anything but friendly.
Still seething from the last year’s elimination, the Linden team will require a collective effort led by the duo of Denzil Prince and Errol Davis to withstand the assault of the army side when the opening whistle sounds.
