Non Fifa Teams Tournament; Brandholm walk away with win with " Liverpool vs AC Milan " quality final.

"Great to see such a brilliant and open competition, welldone to Brandholm"
 ~ Keig Football Association, 2015.


The competition was very close to call. Three teams from three nations participated all from the Non-Fifa Teams Association, highest ranked in the NFT coefficient is the Republic of Keig who disappointed this tournament. Other teams include Woods Republic from the United States of America & Brandholm from the Netherlands. Woods Republic were ranked 42nd & Brandholm ranked 6th. It looked clear the Woods Republic were in for a battering.

The tournament opened up with a strongly rivaled match between the Woods Republic and the Republic of Brandholm. Brandholm were obvious favorites to blow the Woods Republic away, but a 6-1 win said otherwise. President Chung of the Woods Republic was highly impressed after already seeing the Woods Republic lose heavily to Radon and Brandholm before. 

That opening match was a clear sight of things to come for the Republic. Brandholm faced a tough challenge in Keig, 2014 NFT World Cup champions, although a quick 2-0 lead for Brandholm ment they were likely to win. Brandholm eventually ended up winning 3-1 in a close match.

Keig played Woods Republic in what was to be an interesting match. Despite winning their first match 6-1 against Brandholm they needed at least a draw to make it through to the final. Keig put pressure on the Woods Republic throughout the match and ended up with a solid 3-1 win securing their place in the final.

The final was exactly as you'd expected with Brandholm facing Keig for a second time this tournament. The match will go down in history for being one of the biggest comebacks since the night in Istanbul when Liverpool F.C. won the UEFA Champions League Final against AC Milan after Milan took a 3-0 lead.

Throughout the first half minutes Keig dominate the ball as if Brandholm haven't got off the team bus, and Keig take a comfortable 3-0 lead. This lead lasted until the 60th minute when Brandholm score to make it 3-1, and quickly score again to make it game on and 3-2. In the dying minutes of the game Brandholm strike once again to make it 3-3 in the 85th minute. The game looks like it's going to extra time when Brandholm strike again to make it 3-4 in a insane comeback and a well deserved win.
