From highlight to highlight! After the MAD Cup in Spain in the last week of July, the next big highlight tournament was on the program for the offspring of SV Wehen Wiesbaden.
The U19 and U17 teams were challenged as part of the international Capelli Sport Cup in Denmark. Last summer, the U17s even won the tournament and traveled as defending champions.
As in the previous year, the tournament took place on the training grounds of the Danish second division club HB Köge and in the club’s own Capelli Sports Stadium.
In addition to the training sessions and the games, the teams were also able to do some sightseeing, as Copenhagen is only 45 minutes away from Köge.
After Monday and Tuesday, which were used for travel and preparation, the tournament started on Wednesday with the first of two group games. The U19s lost 1-0 to MSV Duisburg, while the U17s got off to a dream start with a 4-1 win over Danish club Viborg FF.
On Friday, the U19s drew 1-1 against Viborg FF, allowing the U19s to finish third in the group stage. In the second group game, the U17s got stuck in a 5-2 loss against the Capelli Sport USA team, but in the end it was enough for the red-blacks to at least place second in the group.
Sunday was then the day of the placement games, with both SVWW teams meeting the representatives of HB Köge. There was a double conciliatory conclusion for the youngsters of the Red-Blacks, because first the U17s defeated the home side 4-0 before the U19s won their game 2-1.
So ended an exciting week in Denmark with many impressions and contacts on and off the pitch, which the SVWW entourage will keep in good memory as an important international experience.
