Canberra and Toronto Croatia didn’t manage to grab a win against Pajde Möhlin and Vojvodina Croats and secure the final match on Saturday.

Toronto Croatia drew with the team of Croats from Vojvodina 2-2. Even though Toronto had more chances and the ball possession, Vojnić scored the first one in the 40th minute for Vojvodina Croats. Toronto missed a few great opportunities and finally got a goal in the 80th minute with a great free kick from Glavina. But Lukač ruined it for them – he scored from a counter attack in the 90th minute and the Vojvodina Croats were already celebrating. Too soon for Josip Keran who scored to make it 2-2 in the next attack. But, the final whistle marked a start of a great celebration for exhausted Vojvodina Croats.

In the other match which decided who’ll play the finals, Canberra didn’t start the match the way they wanted to – Prijić scored a goal for Pajde in the 10th minute. 14 minutes later, Aussies scored from a penalty kick to make it 1-1. That was the result with which the teams went to dressing rooms.

At the start of the second half, Canberra had a good chance, but didn’t score. The decisive moment of the game was when the coach of Pajde Dejan Rakitić (brother of a famous footballer Ivan) put Vidović in the game. Vidović repayed him by scoring in the 65th minute. He played part in the next goal also, which was again scored by Prijić in the 75th minute. Depini made it 4-1 in the 90th, which was the final score.

In the other two games, Croatia Villefranche beat Sydney United 58 comfortably 6-0. Croatia Stuttgart and Croatia Malmö drew 1-1.

Toronto Croatia and Canberra will now face each other in the 3rd place match on Saturday in Sesvete.
