All Stars Veterans Tournament: Penultimate Group Matches Set to Deliver High Drama as the Round of 16 Race Intensifies
The 2025 All Stars Veterans Invitational Tournament is heading for a thrilling climax, with MC Steve, UATH, Capital Sportiff, and VeraGold all fighting for a place in the round of 16. A win in their penultimate group games could be the golden ticket—though for some, fate also lies in the hands of results elsewhere.
The tournament has delivered on every front—drama, surprises, and edge-of-your-seat football since kickoff.
Capital Sportiff must beat Games Village FC and hope results from other venues swing in their favor to sneak in as one of the best losers. Capital City, on the other hand, only need a point against Veragold FC to avoid a heartbreaking exit. But Veragold—despite having the worst defensive record so far—are still daring to dream. To qualify, they must not only beat Capital City, but do so with a massive goal difference swing, and still hope for a touch of fortune from other fixtures.
Karu All Stars, already through to the next round, will play kingmakers when they face UATH, who are banking on a win and a favorable goal tally to book their spot in the last eight. MC Steve must also win and pray the football gods favor them elsewhere, as their path hinges on results from other groups.
With three teams expected to qualify from each group and the best losers from Groups D and E completing the round of 16 lineup, the stage is set for a nail-biting finale. One thing is certain—the All Stars Veterans Invitational Tournament is saving its biggest plot twists for the final whistle.
