Swieqi Phoenix Girls Place Fourth In Eötvös Cup

Swieqi Phoenix girls placed fourth out of 26 teams from Hungary, Poland, Serbia, Belgium, Austria, Slovakia, England and Malta competing in this year's edition of the Eötvös Cup.

In a tense match for third place, garnished with red cards handed out to both teams, the team girls lost out to Slovakian team GT12 in a match which ended 2-1. GT12 were the winners of last year's edition of the Cup.

At the final presentations, team captain Leah Buhagiar was selected to form part of the tournament's 'Dream Team'.

Technical Director Leonard Zammit Munro expressed his satisfaction with the performance of our girls, who won five out of their seven matches at the tournament.

This was the best result achieved by the girls in our eight participations in the Eötvös Cup, apart from the time we won it in 2023.
