The story of Galacticos is a very special one. They made their debut with us all the way back in 2009 at our Barcelona Fives tournament and reached the Cup Semi-Finals. Since then, they reached 2x Cup Quarter-Finals, another Cup Semi-Final and no less than 3x runners-up finishes. Their journey had seen them travel to Barcelona,Valencia, Alicante, the Algarve and Lisbon yet were craving that first title they had worked so hard to achieve and come so close to accomplishing. At the 2025 Porto Tournament they achieved that much deserved success and we could not be happier for them. They did it in style with 8 wins from 8 games and a 5-0 win in the Cup Final.

JCFC Seniors pushed them all the way but Galacticos had just too much in the showpiece final. In the Plate competition there was success for Eltham International. They thought they had won it 1-0 in normal time only for a last gasp Fylde Old Boys equaliser to take the match into penalties. Fylde FC Old Boys were looking to make it back-to-back Plate successes after winning in Prague last year. After an epic penalty shoot-out, Eltham International emerged triumphant. After 15 successful penalties, Tony Martinez made the save that won it for his team.

Personal honours also went to Eltham International as their star striker Stefano Chagas won the golden boot with 8 goals in the tournament. A successful day for him and his team.

Well done to everyone for an amazing day of competition and thank you to all teams who participated and played the tournament in such a great spirit and atmosphere. We hope to see you all again soon.
