FC Bea Mountain, based in Grand Cape Mount, have a remarkable start in the knockout campaign after thrashing Mighty Blue Angels 4-0 in the first round.

Opponents Nimba United booked their place in the second round after defeating Small Town FC 3-1 at the ATS on Friday, September 14.

In the other pairings, the winners from Tony FC vs LPRC Oilers will face former knockout champions Monrovia Club Breweries.
