Jeshwang City were crowned champions of the Serrekunda West ‘nawetan’ Knockout Cup champions after defeating Empty Land in a replayed final at the Serrekunda West Mini-Stadium on Saturday.

Last year’s League Cup winners, Jeshwang City won the Knockout Cup tournament after defeating Empty Land 3-1 on post-match penalty shootouts following a goalless draw in the regulation time.

The match, like it initially, also failed to produce a winner in the regulation time but this time around the game was pushed to penalty shootouts which gave the New Jeshwang-based team the last smile.

 As winners of the tournament, Jeshwang City were awarded a giant trophy and a cash prize of D40, 000, while the runners up, Empty Land received a consolation prize of D30, 000.
