Zitat10.05.2017 Diamond Kickers win Anstoss Cup XXXIV
They had one objective - and with the necessary determination, the Diamond Kickers Zanzibar have achieved it. Last Wednesday the (in)famous trophy of the "Anstoss Pokal" could be lifted. The traditional Friendly Cup of "Anstoss" (german football manager series) was declared the main target this season after unexpectedly failing in the semifinals last edition.
After cruising through this seasons group stage (8-0, 8-1, 4-1), the Kickers continued this time their convincing perfromances in the knockout games. Victories against F.C. Chemie Halle (4-1), Drunken Athletics (6-0) and Eintracht Delmenhorst (4-1) secured the spot in the final. There, the Irish based home-grown longshot team FC Black Velvet proved to be a fierce challenger. But in the end, the sheer offensive power from Tanzania triumphed. With a 3-0 win, the Anstoss Pokal travels to the African continent for the first time.
Can it be defended next season?
