The
2017 Barcelona Fives was our joint-largest single
tournament ever with 32 teams from Denmark, England,
France, Ireland, Lithuania, Italy, Oman, Spain,
Switzerland and Wales battling it out for glory.
We had 133 games and saw over 400 goals scored
on the day but just 1 overall winner - L'Albiceleste!
L'Albiceleste
moved up to joint third on the all-time eurofootballfives.com
winners' list by lifting their third title.They
added the 2017 Barcelona Fives title to their
triumphs at the 2013 Mallorca Fives and 2016 Riga
Tournament. In the Cup Final they defeated Naranjitos
from Valencia. Naranjitos had won two Plate competitions
in our tournaments before but this was their first
Cup Final and represented their best ever performance
in our tournaments.
The
plate competition was won by LT United - the first
win for a team from Lithuania in our tournaments.
They were our top scoring team on the day with
27 goals and 14 of those came from Edgaras Buzas.
He was the top goalscorer in the tournament. Our
runners-up in the Plate were Fiorentina Turner
1 who had two teams in the tournament and both
impressed on debut.
In
the Trophy tournament we had our first ever winners
from outside of Europe with CBD Boys of Oman successful.
They finished the day strongly with 4 clean sheets
in a row and 10 unanswered goals. They defeated
Leek High Boys in the Trophy Final who were our
Plate runners-up from 2016.
It
was a great day's competition and another fantastic
climax to a superb year of tournament action across
Europe. Our 2018 season kicks off in Lisbon in
April - we hope to see you there!
