It was El Combe Old Boys who opened the scoring through Matt Hall and the English team extended their lead to 3-0. It looked an unassailable lead but they could not count on victory just yet – SV Zoo had come from 3-0 down to win 4-3 against Krakow Team in the 2012 Krakow Trophy Plate Final.

They finished the tournament with the joint second best goal difference overall so showed they can compete at a higher level. The 2014 Barcelona Fives Trophy Winners – El Combe Old Boys.
