Final draw

Sverige Tiem vs. Róndlinga Diamonds

[Craitman]

*Played 4th May*

Sverige Tiem 0-0 Róndlinga Diamonds (AET; 2-4 penalties)

Róndlinga Diamonds' exceptional defensive performance earned them a first trophy as a top-flight team, with Zyx Hjaņ's heroics in open play and a penalty shoot-out securing the club's first ever WMFA Cup qualification. The two clubs came into the final separated by six places and 27 points in the league; Sverige's strong campaign being contrasted against the Diamonds' potential relegation struggles even more with a Champions' League final awaiting them at the end of the month. In their shared League 1 matches this term, Sverige have an 11-1 aggregate score over Róndlinga, but the latter brought their defensive A-game to Cherry Trees this weekend, and frustrated last year's champions for 120 minutes. Tiem's best efforts came in extra time, after the Diamonds began to wane somewhat, but 35-year-old stopper Zyx Hjaņ made two crucial saves from Dräsen Isrdlvarien to stop the in-form striker from adding to his impressive tally. As strong as Róndlinga were at the back, they offered little going forward, as has been their wont all season, with Sverige's experienced defence allowing Jan Tórsen and Craitman Dóral no opportunities to test Jesse Lydveldt in goal. With no score after either regular or extra time, penalties were needed to decide the Cities' Cup winner for the first time in its 15 years. Ultimately, Hjaņ's fingertip around the post from Ƨinkœ Zvet, following David Loresen's skied effort, left Diamonds captain Lucäs Pellegrino to roll home a fourth successful kick and lead his team to lift the trophy for just the second time in its history.
