Wales. Strong period for the professional clubs, but hardly visible from aside, for they played in the English leagues. But strength surfaced in the Cup tournament. Swansea City and Cardiff City reached the final – the current strongest team vs the traditionally strongest and most famous one. The first match ended 0-0. In the second the Swans prevailed 2-1.
It was just – Swansea was the strongest Welsh team at the moment. Not an easy victory, but they won the trophy for second consecutive year. 7th Cup in total. The good work of John Toshack brought fruits.
