Four penalty shoot-out results highlighted the quarterfinal section in the Guinness ‘Greatest of the Streets’ West Demerara championship, as Showstoppers, Jetty Gunners, Ballerz Empire, and Bagotstown Warriors secured semi-final places on Saturday evening at the Pouderoyen Tarmac.

 Witnessed by a large crowd, former three-time champion Showstoppers battled past West Side Ballers by a 2-0 score-line on penalty kicks following a 1-1 result at the end of full time. The combination of Dexroy Adams and Stephon Jupiter was clinical from the distance, as they converted to seal a sixth consecutive semi-final appearance.
