FINAL WHISTLE.

The game was over and the dream was over for St. Lunatics too but for the Fins, their celebration has only begun. Fans came pouring into the Olimpico Stadium in Rome as they celebrated their first ever silverware after 5 seasons. As for St. Lunatics, manager Cyen could only accept the defeat but he is positive that if he had his other first team players present, it could have ended differently. He told StXtv, "We were without Tristan, Santa Cruz and Ware so we are a weakened side. However I have to admit, Vadern played very well tonight and the scoreline clearly shows who is the more deserved winner. So kudos to Jjin and his men. Now we need to get our mind back on the League and try to retain our title."
