Round 5 kicked off with a crucial match between Los Perros and Maai, with both teams vying for a strong finish in Group A. Maai entered the game on top of Group A needing to avoid defeat to qualify for the Cup at the expense of their opponents. A win would see them take the Group A victory if Humble Goats failed to win. If Humble Goats also won it would come down to goal difference.

Maai started the game with confidence, pressing high and creating early chances. Their efforts paid off when Bram van Andel opened the scoring, giving Maai a 1-0 lead. The goal spurred Los Perros into action, and they fought back determinedly. Only a win would probably be good enough for Los Perros to reach the Cup. In theory, a draw might do it if Humble Goats lost their final game by two goals. Los Perros's persistence was rewarded when Tim Vrolijk found the back of the net, equalizing the score just before halftime.

The second half saw both teams pushing for the win, knowing the importance of securing all three points. Maai's Joris van Velthooven emerged as the hero of the match, scoring a decisive goal that put Maai back in the lead. Despite Los Perros' best efforts to find another equalizer, Maai's defence held strong, and the match ended 2-1 in favour of the team in navy blue.

This victory solidified Maai's position at the top of Group A and they would be playing Cup football this afternoon. Los Perros, although putting up a strong fight, were left to reflect on what could have been as they would continued their campaign in the Plate section of the tournament.

The final match of Group A saw Post Busters FC taking on the in-form Humble Goats. While Post Busters FC were already set to be eliminated, they were determined to put up a strong fight. Meanwhile, Humble Goats needed a win by two goals or more to guarantee topping the group.

Humble Goats started with intent, showcasing their quality and dominance early on. Raphael Olivero Hernandez opened the scoring, putting them 1-0 up and setting the tone for the match. The pressure continued to mount on Post Busters FC, and Elyas Boumejjane doubled the lead, making it 2-0 and putting Humble Goats in prime position to secure the group victory.

The final blow came from Jeremy Freyne, who added a third goal, sealing a comprehensive 3-0 victory for Humble Goats. The win ensured they finished at the top of Group A, unbeaten and in excellent form heading into the knockout stages.

As the match concluded, it was time to bid farewell and extend thanks to Post Busters FC for their participation and efforts throughout the tournament.
