To
complete Round 2 we had Fiorentina Turner versus
World Pinteur.
Fiorentina
Turner made a promising debut at the 2017 Barcelona
Fives. The ‘1' team produced 5 wins in 7 games
which surprisingly only saw them finish fourth
of eight teams – a tad harsh. They qualified for
the Plate where 4-0 and 4-2 wins in the Quarters
and Semis saw them reach a debut final. It was
just one step too far as Lithuanian side LT United
claimed the Plate victory.
The
‘2' team was equally as good in the group phase
with 5 wins in 7 games. Their haul of 15 points
was enough to finish second in Group C and qualify
for the elite Cup competition. They left us at
the Quarter-Final stage following a 2-0 defeat
to Danish Dynamites. Fiorentina Turner will be
a team to watch in this year's tournament.
Their
second appearance was at the 2018 Mallorca Tournament.
The ‘1' team produced 2 wins, 2 draws and 1 defeat
with the second best goal difference of the entire
group phase (+11). They qualified for the Cup
Quarter-Finals and produced a 3-1 win over Burritos.
In the Semi-Finals they lost 3-1 to Ecuador 100.
The
‘2' team ended their group with 1 win, 2 draws
and 2 defeats as they finished 5 th in their group
but with an even goal difference. They progressed
to the Plate competition where they drew 1-1 with
Purnell Youth 2. They defeated their opponents
3-2 on penalties to reach the final. In the final
they saw off 3 Lions to collect the trophy and
winners' medals, 3-1.
So
far today, Fiorentina Turner opened up with a
3-0 defeat. It was to be another defeat as Romain
Ziat of World Pinteur scored the winner in a 1-0
win.
