The RhönSprudel Mini World Championships experienced an atmospheric final day on Thursday (March 19th) in the Flieden district sports hall. One game in particular was tough.
Flieden – With loud cheers, drums and horns, the spectators in the fully occupied Flieden district sports hall created a real final atmosphere. In addition, the FZ-Schlaufuchs really heated up the audience and encouraged them to dance.
On the pitch, the students showed their best side – they played numerous exciting and highly impressive games. Especially in the semi-final between Ecuador and the USA, the game went back and forth: one goal followed the next, so that in the end there were eight goals. In the game for third place, a penalty shootout had to be decided after ten minutes.
