In a cup final for the nerves, Omonia Nicosia managed to become the 2021-2022 Cup Winner.
Thousands of Greens fans across Cyprus are celebrating tonight for the new trophy that also sends the team to Europe.
Although Omonia were down to ten players early on, they managed to hold on to the tie despite good chances created by Ethnikos, sending the game into extra time and from there to the soul-crushing penalty shootout.
There... the magical Fabiano again showed his quality by saving two penalties and on one occasion he was helped by the crossbar that stopped Ethnikos' third penalty. So once again he helped a lot in winning the trophy. With his last save, making the score 5-4 in the penalty shootout, he triggered the wild celebrations of the thousands of clover fans both on and off the pitch.
Worth mentioning was the very good presence of the refugee club Ethnikos Ahna who had all the makings throughout the game to be crowned cup winners.
