Group B began with Tinniedad & Tobacco versus Maverick.

 

Tinniedad & Tobacco made their debut at the 2014 Barcelona Fives and they made an impressive start to life in eurofootballfives.com competition. They swept to glory in Group A with 10 points out of a maximum 12. The Cup Quarter-Final saw them defeat 2012 Valencia Fives champions, FC Miracle of Hungary, 2-1. They then met 2013 Barcelona Fives champions, Los Swallacticos of NI, in the Semi-Finals. They were moments away from victory until a last gasp equaliser and a penalty shoot-out exit. Los Swallacticos conceded they were lucky to get through. In 2015 it was a case of déjà vu at the 2015 Berlin Fives. They won their group with 13 points from a maximum 15 before an entertaining 5-3 Quarter-Final win over Missing Magpies. In the Semi-Final they were 1-0 going into the last minute where they conceded a penalty to draw 1-1 and a penalty shoot-out proved to be their undoing again. Would it be third time lucky for Tinniedad & Tobacco in Krakow?

 

It all began pretty well for them as they raced into a 4-0 lead at half-time. Jon McKinley bagged a first half hat trick to start the day in style and there was also a goal for Michael Wilkes.

 

It was always going to be a tough start for Maverick FC but they were staring down a barrel early doors. They pulled a goal back through Lewis ‘The Gaffa' Paterson to make it 4-1 but were unable to prevent Tinniedad & Tobacco taking all 3 points.

 
 
 

Next up was Football Bassano MMIII of Italy against Johnsbridge FC of England. Football Bassano MMIII were on debut and the first team from Italy to compete at the Krakow Trophy. We wished them luck.

 

Johnsbridge FC were making their second eurofootballfives.com appearance having made their European bow at the 2014 Budapest Fives. They were hugely impressive on debut finishing second in their 6 team group to eventual winners and 2-times @eurofootball5 winners CIS Committee of Belarus. Their group also featured France's The A Team who have reached two eurofootballfives.com finals. In the Quarter-Finals they drew home team Csabagyongye and went out by the narrowest of margins, 1-0. Csabagyongye incidentally would become Budapest Fives champions 12 months later in 2015.

 

With the game underway it was the Italian team who struck first with Stefano Rosso scoring their first goal in eurofootballfives.com competition. Half-time came and went with the score still at 1-0. After the break Antonio Lancerin made it 2-0 before Christian Fabris secured a confident 3-0 win for Football Bassano MMIII.

 
 
 

Game 3 of Group B saw Cudny Jozef taking on Misfits FC. The former were on debut but the latter had played in our tournaments before.

 

Misfits FC (& Mysterious Dwarves) played in the 2011 Algarve Open. The two teams had differing fortunes with Misfits FC picking up 1 win from 4 in the group phase to finish 5th in their group and progress to the Wooden Spoon knock-out. A 3-0 Semi-Final win versus Aston Carter was followed by a 3-1 win over Portugal's Maritimo in the Final. Mysterious Dwarves finished 2nd in their group behind eventual finalists and 2014 Mallorca Tournament winners Cheesecake FC. They qualified for the Cup but went out in the Quarter-Finals 3-0 to a very good Goldsmith Williams team who had won the 2008 Prague Masters and 2010 Amsterdam Fives.

 

On the pitch there didn't look to be too much between these two teams and it was a solitary goal that would divide the two teams in the opening period – scored by Ian Corkill of Cudny Jozef. In fact, that goal would also divide the two teams at full time too. There was no further addition to the score and Cudny Jozef took all 3 points on offer.
