After five match days and 26 fierce games, the “3rd La Liga Hope Cup China (Kunming) Tournament” came to a successful conclusion at the Hongta Sports Center on August 28.

The final was between two La Liga teams, Real Betis and Sevilla. In the first half, both teams launched offensive and defensive battles but neither made any progress. As soon as the whistle for the second half sounded, a Real Betis player broke into the opponent’s penalty area and shot the ball towards the empty goal, but the player who was defending in time headed the ball out near the goal line, and Sevilla escaped. Just three minutes later, Real Betis’s continuous high pressure took effect. Player No. 10 received a wonderful pass from his teammate and scored the ball in the open play, and Real Betis led 1:0. With the score behind, Sevilla obviously strengthened its offensive on the right and created dangers in front of the goal many times, but the ball either went out of the goal or was confiscated by the goalkeeper. In the end, the score was fixed at 1:0. Real Betis defeated Sevilla and won the championship trophy, successfully defending the title.

In the third and fourth place finals, the Hubei Football Association defeated the Jiangsu Football Association 3:2 to win the third place. After the finals, a “closing ceremony and award ceremony” was held, and the best referee, best coach, best player and other honors were selected.

It is understood that the “La Liga Hope Cup” is the La Liga Youth Football Championship that has been held continuously since the establishment of the La Liga League. It is one of the important world-class football events for the U12-U16 age group. In 2019, the event went out of Spain for the first time and settled in Kunming, China.
