Eight teams are set for the race to win the 1XBET Community Cup as the competition reaches the quarter-final stage on Monday at the Mobolaji Johnson Arena, Onikan, Lagos.
The quarter-finals are poised for high-level action at the famous arena, with a mouthwatering grand prize of N20 million at stake in Nigeria’s biggest grassroots football competition.
Leading the quater-finalists are the defending champions SB LFC, who face FC Bethel Sporting in what has been billed as a ‘clash of titans’.
Gunners Link FC who surprisingly topped Group A, will tackle Collins Edwin FC for a spot in the last four of the championship.
Emajus FC will battle for the semi-final ticket against the fairytale team of the championship, Diadem Stallion FC, who knocked out 36 Lions FC in the playoffs.
Dominion Hotspur FC who have been dominant so far in this year’s championship, will play another surprise package in Emiloju FC, who knocked out last year’s finalists Ighalo FC, in the playoffs.
Meanwhile, the sponsors of the championship, 1XBET, and the organisers, Match International Limited, have perfected plans to improve upon the standard of the organisation, which has been excellent so far.
Chief Executive Officer of Match International Limited, Waidi Akanni, has promised football fans excitement, top-class football games and lots of glitz and glamour throughout the competition.
