FA Cup Matches Start Today
By Modou Nyang
The long overdue FA Cup competition will commence today with 16 teams battling it out in the preliminary round.
At the Independence Stadium in Bakau relegated first division side Seaview FC will be hoping to better their league performance against second division strugglers, Young Africans. Whilst at the Box Bar grounds in Brikama second division fellows Jambanjelly FC and Nema United will battle for a place in the next stage. The day’s other game will be a Serrekunda derby between Tallinding United and Ham Ham FC to be played at the Serrekunda East grounds.
Tomorrow on Saturday, Brikama United will test it’s mettle against Steve Biko, the wounded Bakau side who are bitter after making the drop on the last day of the league season for the first time since the clubs inception.
Also on Saturday at the high level playing field in Basse Watterman FC of URR will host Jarra West in a contest between fellow regional teams. And at Soma Interior FC will travel all the way to meet Kiang Central, and Serrekunda East FC play Samger FC at the Serrekunda East grounds in another hot duel between two Serrekunda sides.
The eight teams that will progress from this stage will be pitted against the other eight 1st division sides, who will also cancel out each other to reach the last eight of the competition.
