The RFCU were better but they were pushed on penalties by an UNK: two Prince’s Cup finals lost in a row, after the defeat in 2022 against Pétange.
It’s always hard to lose a final on a penalty shootout and the Racing juniors have learned that the hard way. In this little game, it was Käerjeng’s team who won and who owe it to Noah Scheidweiler, who stopped three shots on goal, offering the title to his team.
The RFCU can have regrets, because they were, throughout the meeting, the best team on the ground. In any case, the one who sought to play and find the breach. But that was not enough: too often they missed the last pass that could have made the difference, which was good for Käerjeng who mainly tried to play the counter throughout the 90 minutes. And apart from long balls, the RFCU goalkeeper had no intervention to make, something which was not the case for Scheidweiler, who had to intervene two or three times.
The downpour disrupted the game
And fortunately he responded, warming his gloves for the penalty shootout. The minutes went by and nothing changed in the score. It must be said that we did not have much to put in our mouths. And that the weather (intense rain which made the field almost impassable) during the first half did not help too much.
Once the downpour passed, both teams were able to show off their talent. But nothing will be registered until the end. The RFCU lose their final after last year’s loss to Pétange. We find them in 2024 for a third attempt?
