The inaugural edition of Bank Wars, a
FIFA 21 Gaming competition for leading Nigerian banks, will come to an exciting
climax on Saturday, June 5, 2021 as Access Bank and Standard Chartered go
head-to-head in the final.
Earlier on Saturday, two losing
semi-finalists, Fidelity Bank and Sterling Bank will trade tackles in the third
place match. The game kicks off by 12pm.
Thereafter, attention will shift to the
potentially heavyweight clash between the best two sides in the competition.
Access Bank and Standard Chartered both have a 100 per cent record heading into
the final and either side would be keen to claim the debut edition of the
competition with a victory on Saturday.
To get to the final, Standard Chartered
thrashed Sterling Bank 15 – 9 in the first semi-final encounter played on
Saturday, May 29, 2021. The one-sided encounter saw the victorious side
dominate the tie, leaving viewers who thronged the Tech Experience Centre,
venue of the competition, in no doubt as to their intent ahead of the final. On
its part, Access Bank equally served full notice of its desire to emerge
inaugural winners of the competition, with an impressive 13 – 8 victory over
Fidelity Bank in the second semi-final tie. The game, which kicked off by
1:45pm, witnessed a keenly-contested and action-filled encounter, which ended
with Access Bank’s superior quality showing through on the day.
Excitement has reached fever-pitch level
ahead of the third place and final matches on Saturday, with eager spectators
already indicating their intention to storm the Tech Experience Centre to
witness the encounters.
The Tech Experience Centre, Africa’s
cutting-edge technology and lifestyle hub, is located at Yudala Heights, 13
Idowu Martins Street, Victoria Island, Lagos.
Meanwhile, the matches will also be
streamed live to a global audience on YouTube, as the organizers respond to the
yearnings of potential spectators outside Nigeria who desire to follow the
action. The third place and final match can be streamed live here from 12pm on
