Twelve teams came to do battle at the 2011 Mallorca Tournament, two remained - Policia Local de Palma and Quayaquil 100%. It was Spain versus Ecuador for the ultimate prize.

We were treated to a game that was worthy of a final which was full of goals, entertainment and watched by a supportive crowd who thoroughly enjoyed it. The best thing about the final was that as the two teams took to the field it was a 50/50 guess on who would come out on top.

Policia Local de Palma had managed to grind out results all day with a certain amount of flair and great deal of determination. Quayaquil 100% had been flamboyant and been knocking in goals for fun. They were on a great run of 5 games without a defeat – a 6 th would see them emerge as champions.

The first half gave us no real clues as to who would be champions as the game swung from end to end with the teams trading blows. Piero Zapata, with number 10 for the day, put Quayaquil 100% in the lead but Pedro Garcia pegged them back to 1-1. We were down to one half of football to decide the destination of the World Cup style trophy.

It was Policia Local de Palma who claimed the third goal through Garcia again and with that Quayaquil 100% seemed to wilt under the pressure. From there the floodgates seemed to open and Policia de Palma scored at relative ease through Pedro Barcelo, Rafa Rafa and Barcelo again. The team from Ecuador continued to push forward and Rolando Acuazado scored his second of the day but it was immaterial at the end. Final score, 5-2

The winners of the 2011 Mallorca Tournament – Policia Local de Palma.

There was some personal consolation for Quayaquil 100% as their comrade Piero Zapata emerged to win the top goalscorer prize with a fantastic return of 10 goals in 7 games. A great achievement and a well deserved trophy to you.
