Olivia Business Centre – thyssenkrupp 5:5 k. 2:3

What an emotion it was! In this match full of twists and turns, both teams had chances to win. The lead changed several times in favor of each team. Having recovered from a two-goal deficit, Olivia had a great chance to win, playing in the end with a man advantage. thyssenkrupp’s promotion was decided only by a penalty shootout. After the match, however, there was no shortage of high-fives and thanks for the fierce, sporting rivalry.

PwC – Lechia Gdańsk Foundation 3:7

Last season’s finalists, the Lechia Gdańsk Foundation, were a surprise, defeating No. 2 seeded PwC 7:3. It is worth noting that it was PwC who led 3:1 before the break… However, the second half was a completely different story. Thus, the Lechists took revenge for the heavy defeat from the main round and became the authors of one of the most spectacular comebacks in the history of the competition.

HK Finance – Dream Team Indestructibles Energa 3:6

In the last two matches, HK Finance and Dream Team Indestructible Energa met. These meetings are a “classic” of the Olivia Sports league. This time it was Energa who came out on top, winning 6:3 and eliminating their No. 3 seeded opponents. The old sports adage not to underestimate the heart of a champion has been confirmed. And DTN Energa are the champions of the league from 2014!

CityFit – CCC 9:2

There was no surprise, however, in the last quarter-final. Defending champion and No. 1 seed CityFit defeated CCC 9-2. For CCC, reaching the quarter-finals was their biggest success so far, and it was won in dramatic circumstances in the last round of the group stage.
