As organizers, we are floored, grateful and completely satisfied. It was a great weekend and with that we end the second qualifier for the East Mallorca Cup on home soil! One thing is for sure, next year there will be a sequel!

What drama. In a penalty shoot-out, the youngsters from VfB Oldenburg defeated the defending youth soccer champion VfB Waltrop 4:3. It was 0-0 after 20 minutes of play.

Both teams played a big tournament over both days and showed impressive combination football.

The road to the final was also exciting. In the game TSV Rudow 1888 against VfB Oldenburg it was 1:3. The youngsters from Berlin also presented a very strong youth football. In the second semi-final game, TSV Havelse, born in 2010, and VFB Waltrop, who were also in high spirits, met each other. Last year's tournament winner prevailed here with 0:1.

The KO games in particular were characterized by great scoring chances, fairness and tight results. We are completely satisfied and would like to thank all participants for the great three days, says organizer Ole Aldag.
