    It ended an impressive run from Spanish rookies Ferrol, who had started their debut season in the competition in the Qualifiers. They had strong performances from the likes of Angela Mataix and Claire Melia, but came up short.

    For Villeneuve, they become the third team to win the competition on more than one occasion - joining Dynamo Moscow and Galatasaray in the exclusive club.
