Nhlangano – Evelyn Baring High School will face Manzini Central High in the national final of the INSTACASH Schools Soccer Tournament 2025, following a dramatic semifinal showdown at King Sobhuza II Stadium earlier today.
Evelyn Baring secured their spot with a narrow 1–0 victory over fellow Nhlangano side, Nhlangano Central High. The win sets up a highly anticipated rematch of last year’s final against Manzini Central, who advanced after beating Mpaka High 3–1 in the earlier semifinal fixture.
The national final is scheduled for Friday, 20 June 2025, at Mavuso Sports Centre in Manzini. The day will kick off at 9:00 AM with a friendly match between INSTACASH staff and Eswatini Sports and Schools Association (ESSA) teachers, followed by the third-place playoff between Nhlangano Central and Mpaka High at 11:00 AM. The main event — Evelyn Baring vs Manzini Central — is set for 2:00 PM.
Entry will be E10 for adults and E5 for learners in uniform. Gates open at 7:00 AM. The tournament is supported by Eswatini TV and Websters Stationery.
