Both Vadern and Gazzetas had their games played at the same time and both Hupkes and Grierson started in the game. It was going to be a great night as fans were seen holding portable radios to keep themselves updated on the happenings on each other games. The Finnish fans were in shock as it only took the flying Dutchman, Jason Hupkes 5 minutes to get into the scoresheet. However sighs were quickly switched to cheers as it turned out that Hupkes goal was disallowed.
The cheering Finnish crowd clearly gave Vadern a boost as Blatherwick was first to score for them. Things start to get worse for the Dutch side when Jason Hupkes was badly injured by Rui Drent. The news quickly went to Varedan Park and the fans continued to cheer again. That was the moment when Tommy Grierson knew it was his cue and it was time he stopped giving "warnings" to the opposition keeper. After being disappointed by Roni Burla over and over again, Grierson finally leveled Hupkes goal tally on the 69th minute. The crowd went wild.
Ending on a high : Vadern players saluting their fans after the game.Hismamagotserved was a victim tonight as the keeper was made into a target practice for the fins. Kingston and his teammates had a pop at Burla but on the 88th minute, that was when history was made. Never in Xpert League history that anyone has even overtaken another player on the goal tally on the final game and Tommy Grierson did it with a well placed header.
Grierson : The header that sealed him the Golden Boot.
