National Conference Soccer League (NCSL)

In the revamped National Soccer League quarter-finals currently underway this weekend the Kimbe franchise showed they can match any team in the competition when they shocked favorites Gulf Komara holding them out to a nil all scoreline until the end of regulation time, only to go down 2-nil in extra time.

In their first ever quarter-final appearance, the underdogs took to task from the get go, the glamor club in a tight but action packed entertaining showdown.

At the end of a 10-round normal season ending last year, Lae City FC came out on top claiming the minor premiership with nine wins, one draw and no loss.

Captain Emmanuel Simon is adamant Lae City FC will maintain the momentum to stay on top of their game.

Simon said backed by progressive results of this season, the team heads into the finals race tomorrow with the same attitude and a positive mindset.

He added though the team will be without the services of the Komolong brothers, the spirit in the camp is high and the boys can’t wait for game day.
