Th e finalists are Medina United FC from Lamin, an innovation that produced a first class academy and second division team in relatively short time. The other finalist is TMT FC a revelation in the first division.
Medina United reached the final after deserved victory over Steve Biko through a Dominic Boissey lone strike in the 46th minute at Old Yundum.
TMT FC beat Team Rhino a marathon 8-7 penalty shootouts after a goalless draw in regulation time at East Park
