‘Quality is up again’:Austria defend FCB Youth Cup title
On Sunday Austria won the grand final of the FC Bayern Youth Cup at the Allianz Arena and hoisted the trophy into the Munich sky, just like in 2015. Germany finished runners-up in the top-notch tournament.
Junior talents from seven countries visited Bavaria to take part in the grand final this weekend. The teams, which were selected over a period of several months in qualifying tournaments, travelled to the Bavarian capital on Wednesday and Thursday for a training camp.
Besides the training sessions the youngsters enjoyed a diverse supporting programme at the Säbener Strasse, including an intercultural evening, a guided tour of Munich and a visit to the Allianz Arena for FC Bayern's home match against Hannover. The highlight was a meet and greet with Arjen Robben. Sunday saw the grand final of the fifth FC Bayern Youth Cup.
