El Salvador win 1-0 against Portugal
The opening two periods were tightly contested, with both El Salvador and Portugal unable to find the breakthrough despite creating chances, leaving the match deadlocked heading into the final period.

The decisive moment came late in the third period, when goalkeeper Maravilla produced a stunning long-range strike with just two minutes remaining to break the deadlock.

That goal proved enough to secure a narrow 1–0 victory, as El Salvador claimed back-to-back titles in the women’s competition.

Men
Denmark sealed a composed victory to close out the contest.

Colombia 1-3 Denmark
Colombia took the lead in the opening period, with Rafa breaking the deadlock three minutes before the first break to give his side a 1–0 advantage.

Denmark responded early in the second period as Hansen levelled the contest, before Pilgaard struck late to turn the game around and hand his side a narrow lead heading into the final period.

Despite Colombia’s efforts to fight back, Denmark remained in control, and Hansen’s second goal late in the third period sealed a composed 3–1 victory.

Brazil claim a decisive championship victory.
El Salvador 1-5 Brazil
Brazil asserted their dominance in the opening period, with Filipe Silva and Rodrigo finding the net in the latter stages to give their side a 2–0 lead. El Salvador showed resilience but were unable to break through.

The second period saw Brazil extend their advantage as Catarina added a third early on. El Salvador responded through Perdomo, who pulled one back to keep the contest alive heading into the final period.

Brazil, however, sealed the result in the third period, with late goals from Catarino and Filipe Silva—both completing their braces—to secure a dominant 5–1 victory and the championship title.
