Victoria will play in finale
The first semi-finale Baltic Queen versus Victoria – Kalev stadium/Tallinn 13th of June, kick off 12:00.
Both teams has so far successfully played in this year's Tournament and won their colleagues from Riga-Stockholm and Helsinki-Stockholm route and therefore earned their place to play for the place in finale. This game is another perfect and very principal opposition in the Tournament, as both BQ and Victoria are operating on the same Tallinn-Stockholm route and therefore competing with each other also better business results and all other related aspects. So the will to win this game and to have the place in finale is expectably very high from both sides. If we look back of the scores of their games in 1st and 2nd stage of this tournament, we may consider them quite equal teams and this will leave no room for confident speculation to predict the winner.
Game itself started with lots of rain and equal fight from both sides. Though Victoria managed to score twice (one from penalty) – so half time ended 2:0 to Victoria. The second half of the game was even tougher and more equal battle, where BQ also opened their score, but today the skills and luck was from Victoria's side. Despite the wet weather, it was a beautiful and well played semi-final from both teams.
The final score 4:2 for Victoria and they are victoriously through to finale – congratulations, viva la Victoria!
