It will be Linden versus Georgetown in the semi-final round today as Sparta Boss will oppose Wisroc and Channel-9 Warriors will tackle Team 25 following opening night wins on Wednesday in the Guinness ‘Greatest of the Streets’ National Championship.

Divided into two groups of four at the National Cultural Centre Tarmac, every win during normal time was worth three points while a victory via penalty kicks was valued at two points. Also, each team that lost via a penalty shootout also received a point.

Sparta Boss sealed their berth to the final four stage, topping group-B with six points following wins over Stewartville Gunners and Beterverwagting (BV)-B respectively.
