Four teams remain in the KFC International Schools Football tournament, and the feature semi-final will be Chase Academic Foundation of Guyana against St. Benedict’s College of Trinidad and Tobago.

The knockout matches are scheduled for Tuesday evening at the Ministry of Education ground, Carifesta Avenue.

The group stage concluded on Saturday with St. Benedict’s and Clarendon College of Jamaica being the only two unbeaten teams.

The Trinidadians topped their group after defeating Carmel Secondary 3-0, while formidable Jamaicans got the better of Chase 2-0 to top their group.

The final and third-place playoff are scheduled for December 22.
