HON OSOMKIME BLANKSON UNITY FOOTBALL TOURNAMENT GETS TO SENI FINAL STAGE


The ongoing Osomkime Blankson Unity Football Tournament produced exciting quarter final results in the two centres that hosted the games.
Edepie community booked its semi final spot after defeating Amarata community 3-2 in an intense quarter final game that produced five goals.
It was the first quarter final fixture at the Bishop Dimieri Grammar School center, and it proved to be an interesting game as both teams showed resilience and determination to clinic the semi final ticket. 
Amarata found the back of the net first, in the first half, Edepie leveled few minutes later, and then took the lead before half time, at the resumption, Edepie increased their tally to three, before Amarata's second goal which came shortly before the final whistle.
The second game was another tough derby between Kpansia community and neighbors, Yenizue-gene, but it was Kpansia that scaled through with a hard fought one nil win.
It was more dramatic at the Kpansia center as a much determined Ogu community came from three goals down to level up three-three against Igbogene community.
It was all about Igbogene community in the first half, as the game went in their favour, scoring three beautiful goals, leaving their opponents in a confused state. But at the resumption, Ogu community refused to gown without a fight, and they drew the game 3-3, taking it to the shootout, which Igbogene won 4-3.
The last quarter final game between Yenizue-epie and Ogboloma community ended goalless, as Ogboloma community saw off their opponent 3-2 on penalties.
Edepie will set up a semi final clash with Kpansia community, while Igbogene tackles Ogboloma community.
Both games will come up on Sunday, December 28th at the BDGS center.
