The street to the Showtime Bowl XIII Ultimate explodes into life this Sunday as 4 of the largest forces in Nigerian flag soccer collide in a two-leg semifinal showdown on the electrifying Showtime Area.
At 17:30, the Warriors Flag Soccer — final season’s champions and this yr’s No. 2 seed — tackle the high-flying, Wildcard-rampaging Panthers Sports activities, who simply dropped a historic 78 factors on Ikan Sports activities.
The Warriors pleasure themselves on self-discipline and brutal effectivity, however the Panthers arrive with the most popular offense within the league and the arrogance of a crew that believes future is asking.
Then at 18:45, the undefeated Lagos Athletic Knights (9–0) put their good season on the road in opposition to the fearless Lagos Rebels, who stormed previous the Raptors with a commanding 40–20 Wildcard win.
The Knights haven’t misplaced a single sport this season — not one — however the Rebels are infamous giant-killers and are available into this semifinal with nothing to lose and all the pieces to show.
With the brand new two-leg format, the story doesn’t finish on Sunday. Each landing, each mistake, each defensive cease, each interception — all the pieces counts twice as the combination rating throughout each legs will decide who marches into the Showtime Bowl XIII Grand Ultimate.
That is the evening the place reputations are made.
That is the place seasons are outlined.
That is the place goals both survive… or disappear.
4 groups. Two legs. Two golden tickets to the Ultimate. One unforgettable evening on the Showtime Area.
The league has delivered drama all yr — however nothing comes near what’s coming subsequent.
Playoff soccer has arrived. And in Nigeria, no person does it like Showtime.
