As usual, the first trophy hand-over
of the season is due at the end of the LEN Trophy Final Four tournament, to be
held on Saturday and Sunday in Barcelona.
Two Spanish sides, CN Sabadell and CN
Mataro face some swift challenge from Russia’s Kinef Kirishi and Italy’s SIS Roma
this weekend. Among the participants, Mataro already clinched this cup in 2016,
for the others it would be a first-ever triumph in this competition.
Obviously, it’s Sabadell and Kinef
which can be considered top favourites here as these two clubs claimed the last
four Euro League titles respectively – Sabadell in 2016 and 2019, while Kinef
in 2017 and 2018. They usually go for the very top of Europe, barely misses the
EL F4 but now it happened to both of them so they are looking for some
consolation now (indeed Kirishi also had to compete in this event in 2019 and
finished third).
And the draw paired them right away
in the semis, this bout can also be considered the re-match of the 2018 Euro
League final where Kinef prevailed after a thrilling match, ending in a penalty
shootout. Just like this contest, the clash of Mataro and Roma can go either
way too.
The host of the event, the Catalonian
Swimming Federation will provide free live streaming on both days, visit this
