‘Champion of Champions’ Futsal

Gold is Money captured the crown in the inaugural Chung Global ‘Champion of Champions’ Futsal, ending the fairytale run of giant killer North Ruimveldt by a 4-1 score in the final on Saturday evening at the National Gymnasium on Mandela Avenue.

The greatest underdog story in the history of local Futsal could not be completed as the West Ruimveldt unit overcame a dogged first half that was locked at 1-1 to prevail and capture their first title in more than five years.

With Sparta Boss, Back Circle, and North East La Penitence falling at the hands of North Ruimveldt, Gold is Money ensured that they would not join that list as three unanswered goals in the second stanza secured the title.
