The Tiki Toa keep boosting their preparation in Europe, three months prior to their debut in the FIFA Beach Soccer World Cup they host
Tahiti keeps conquering Europe… The Tiki Toa bagged a new trophy in their European summer tour, after edging Switzerland and hosts Austria in the 10th annual Euro Nationscup, held this last weekend in Linz (Austria)
After edging the defending Euro Beach Soccer League Champions Switzerland in a thrilling playoff game on Saturday (4-7), the Polynesian side flew to the final. A 5-2 over Slovakia made Austria the second finalist, what brought on a game never experienced in the top-flight Beach Soccer.
The Tiki Toa, who are well on the road to get to the FIFA Beach Soccer World Cup they are hosting in a truly awesome shape, rolled over the hosts to claim the cup. An uncontestable 0-10 left little to say, as it confirmed the Tiki Toa are a fearful opponent in whatever competition they might be drawn into.
