There was also great joy at Austria, the fourth title after 2014, 2015 and 2016 – record! In the final they celebrated a 6-1 victory over Fulham. Already in the quarter-finals, defending champion Mainz was defeated 6:1, then Hannover 5:2. “We couldn’t have dreamed of a better result,” said Kenan Jusic, who was voted best goalie. Coach Joachim Standfest: “I had ten outstanding players, they implemented their quality fantastically. A wonderful feeling – I’m incredibly proud.”
