Finnish Cup has been running all autumn and for both women and men, it’s time for the semi-finals next. All remaining teams are F-liiga teams as the last ones playing lower levels were eliminated last night.
The quarter-final round saw two brave challenges by Divari (second highest level) teams as FBC Turku took SPV into overtime and Karhut did the same for Nokian KrP. Both F-liiga teams were eventually able to score the winners, though.
Semi-final teams for women are Classic, FBC Loisto, SB-Pro and Koovee and for men Classic, Nokian KrP, SPV and Westend Indians.
