The first half of the final lived up to expectations, with both teams battling hard for supremacy. Tilbury Douglas struck first, with Sonny Richardson continuing his excellent form by scoring his sixth goal of the tournament, giving his team a 1-0 lead. However, the lead was short-lived as Richardson, in an unfortunate turn of events, scored an own goal, leveling the match at 1-1.

The second half saw both teams pushing for the decisive goal, but it was Tilbury Douglas who found the breakthrough. Ben Ord, who had scored once earlier in the tournament, stepped up and delivered the most important goal of his team's campaign, putting Tilbury Douglas ahead 2-1.

Despite Argon'ze A's best efforts to find an equalizer, Tilbury Douglas held firm, displaying solid defensive work and determination. The final whistle blew, confirming Tilbury Douglas as the 2024 Amsterdam Fives Plate winners with a 2-1 victory. It was a remarkable debut for the English side, and they celebrated their hard-earned triumph. With just the one defeat in seven games it was hard to argue they were not worthy winners.

Commiserations to Argon'ze A, who fought valiantly but ultimately fell just short. Their journey to the final was commendable, and they can hold their heads high for their efforts in the tournament.

For Tilbury Douglas, this victory was a testament to their hard work, tenacity, and team spirit. Winning the Plate Final on their debut was a fantastic achievement, showcasing their ability to perform under pressure and against strong competition. The team's journey through the tournament, marked by solid performances and key goals. Congratulations to Tilbury Douglas on a sensational campaign and a memorable victory!
