So
who would claim the first ever Wooden Spoon in
eurofootballfives.com competition?
The
two teams taking the field to challenge for the
honour were The Ruud Boys and Moss Deb FC. Following
disappointing results in the Group Phase they
had both turned their form around in the semi-finals
to produce a victory and get them to this final.
The
Ruud Boys had overturned a one goal deficit in
their semi-final versus Bristol Phippy and they
took their second half form from the semi-final
into this match by taking the lead in the final.
The goal was scored by the Ruud Boys number 20
for his second goal in as many matches. They took
this lead into half-time at 1-0.
The
final would prove to be a role reversal for the
semi-finals. In Moss Deb FC's semi-final they
had taken the lead and were pegged back before
going onto win with a golden goal in extra time.
The Ruud Boys had gone behind and come back to
win. In this final though the Ruud Boys had taken
the lead but they were the ones who would see
a 1-0 lead turn into a 2-1 deficit and in fact
a 2-1 defeat.
Felino
Foustino grabbed the equaliser for Moss Deb FC
before Eddy Catanino grabbed what would prove
to be the winner. The goals were each player's
third of the tournament and earned them their
success.
