One Last Hope for the Eagles
It is the time of the year when finals football momentum is knocking on all doors for the semi professional Bemobile cup teams vying for a spot in the final five in October.For Mount Hagen Bintangor Eagles; coming from a 22-12 loss to the hands of Masta Mak City Rangers in Madang last week really gives a hard time for the last year’s runner up and the game against Agmark Rabaul Gurias this weekend is set as one final hope for the Kanges.
It will be a Kange verses Kange match seeing several high profile players like Rodney Pora, Kot Kerua, Larsen Marabe, Dion Aiye and George Moni initially from Hagen left in wonder for greener pastures.
Eagles’ captain James Emm knows well that this game is a must win or face exited from finals campaign and he will rely heavily on his little general Skipper Mel, Kumul forward Benny Pamunda, George Baker, Seth Angra and up and coming star winger Tiger Amere.
A loss to the Gurias may spoil the Kanges finals hope therefore this game is set to go right down to the wire.
CIVAPC/NCD Vipers are in the same boat as Eagles and needs to win this match against shallow dwellers ATCL Lae Bombers in the local derby.
