Sugar Boys & Old Madrid reach semi-finals of Terry Evans Cup
That game will be the second semi-final to be played on Sunday May 1, 2016, at 6.00pm on the A.O. Shirley Recreation Grounds and the winners will know their opponents after the Islanders face VG United in the first game of the day at 4.00pm.
Old Madrid and the Panthers slugged it out over 90 minutes of ebbing and flowing football, with both sides creating chances to win the game, but ultimately running out of time and ending up facing a dreaded penalty shoot out.
That shoot out went right through 18 spot kicks of various style and skill until the Panthers finally lost their nerve and fired kick number 19 high over the cross bar to concede defeat, 8-7.
