West Front Road-Gold is Money led by an inspired second half showing from siblings Randolph Wagner and Hubert Pedro, overcame Showstoppers 7-6 when the final round of group fixtures in the inaugural GT Beer Futsal Championship concluded on Wednesday.

Trailing 4-2 going into the second half at the Cliff Anderson Sports Hall, the Georgetown unit registered five goals in the space of six minutes in the period to seal the enthralling spectacle witnessed by a large gathering.

With the West Demerara unit needing a win to progress to the next round and the Georgetown unit simply requiring a draw to progress, it all started in the 24th minute as Pedro re-directed an attempted right-sided strike from Wagner into the centre of the net, from within the box.

Showstoppers then restored their two-goal lead in the 26th minute as Simon Emmanuel netted from the penalty mark into the lower left corner,
