ACLI Final: Serafico 5 - 3 Ambrit

 For the second year running, Ambrit made it all the way to the final of the ACLI Champions Cup but, alas, they had to settle for second place this year. It all started well though, Lorenzo scoring after only 20 seconds. Ambrit then created a few more half-chances but Serafico played their way back into the game and equalised after 16'; their no.11 got to the by-line, crossed and the ball went on off Dylan. Cameron made a couple of good saves then but Serafico went ahead just before half-time. A harmless shot was deflected into the middle of the penalty area and Serafico reacted quickly as Ambrit's players merely looked on.

Serafico fired home two bullets early in the second half and they also hit the bar to leave Ambrit 4-1 down and looking a little pumch-drunk. But they dug deep and came back at their opponents. Emilio scored with a header at the far post and Giorgio blasted home a free kick to make it 4-3 and it looked like Ambrit might yet take the tie to a penalty shoot-out. But Serafico woke up again and made their physical advantage count with two late goals.
