After 59 games of football we came down to the most important of them all. Game 60 – The 2017 Mallorca Fives Cup Final. The two teams set to do battle for the honour and glory of victory were Valecuatro and Forn De N'aina.

The two teams had met earlier in the day all the way back in Round 2 of Group B. Valecuatro won that contest 4-2 on the way to finishing second in the group. Both teams finished on 9 points in Group B with Valecuatro finishing higher on goal difference but both teams had obviously done enough to reach the Cup. In the knock-out phase Valecuatro had a superb win over defending champions Mariano FC before defeating Broxelona A, 5-1. Forn De N'aina had a similarly tough route to the Cup Final defeating FC Maroon (who had not yet conceded) 1-0 and then Blue Collar Revolution (with 6 wins from 6) on penalties.

With the game underway it was pretty even with neither team on top for significant periods in the opening exchanges. We then got a goal that changed the pattern of the game. Pascal Moreno Cortes took his tally for the tournament to 9 goals when he put Valecuatro 1-0 ahead. Forn De N'aina came back strongly. They put on a period of sustained pressure which resulted in numerous corners but the Valecuatro defence stood firm. Forn De N'aina for all their pressure didn't really look like scoring but Alexis Ferreira came close just before the break shooting narrowly wide.
