2009 league runners-up, Biko, went out of the contest for the FA Cup treble after losing to communities' rivals Africell on shoot-outs.

In a topsy-turvy encounter that sent Biko in a first-half lead ended nil-nil through out regulation allocated time before it decided on kicks.

With Alassana Camara starting upfront, Alagie Bah helping on the wing and Ousman Jarju partnering in the strike department, kept the Africell defense build-up busy as they struggled to keep a clean sheet.

Left-footed Alassana Camara came close to breaking the deadlock when he coaxed Africell's defender Abdoulie Mbye out, before he powered past the post, six minutes before teammate Ma Lamin Jammeh went red carded.

Substitute Buba S. Bojang should have put Africell in the lead had he not headed instead of passing to unmarked Cherno Njie who stood at a close range to whip in.

Biko's Ousman Jarjue 64th minute's shot went over the roof of the net three minutes before losing another opportunity that came begging in the second half.

Africell continued defending most part of the game as the defence struggled to keep Biko's forward Osuman Jarjue at bay. However mother luck was at work for the communication to square to the semi-finals after beating Steve Biko on penalties.
