Dante Mandriotti and Juan Llandrich Canals have been inducted into Gothia Cup Hall of fame, for their efforts for youth football and the world youth cup.

Gothia Cup set a record again, when opening registration for next year’s tournament. After only 12 minutes, the category for local teams was full.

Within the first four hours, teams from 17 different countries had registered. For the first time since 1992, a team from New Zealand will be coming to the world’s largest youth football tournament.

In 2019, Gothia Cup introduces a new form of competition. B13/G13, boys and girls born 2006, will play nine-a-side football.

Dennis Andersson, General Secretary of Gothia Cup, has been inducted into the Gothenburg Sports Hall of Fame. He receives the award for his outstanding work that has made Gothia Cup into the world’s largest youth tournament and thereby put Gothenburg on the world map.

Only one month after the Gothia Cup week in Gothenburg the Chinese Gothia Cup started in Qingdao. Around 300 teams from 33 countries are having the ultimate football experience in China right now.

The tournaments opening ceremony took place on Sunday, and this week 600 games will be played. You can follow the teams and find everything you need to know at the Gothia Cup China website.

Celebrate the Game raised spirits at this year’s Gothia Cup. A few teams that made particularly outstanding contributions were this year’s Fairplay Trophy winners: Prep School Lions Green, FC Minsk, Sel Quinta Cordillera and JSG KAWU.

19 506 goals and a countless number of laughs sums up Gothia Cup 2018. Our organisation would like to take a moment to say thank you to all participants, volunteers and visitors who made this tournament into a memory that will last for a lifetime!

The final game of this year’s Gothia Cup was a special one, both for Gothenburg and the two competing teams. The incredibly close game was settled with just one goal separating the teams – an own goal.

It was the reigning champion against the rookie, when Norcal PDP met Tokyo Verdy in the G17 final of Gothia Trophy. The underdogs managed to win by controlling the game from start to finish.
