IMC wins Financial Football Tournament ’11
IMC has won the title of the Financial Football tournament, after beating KBC Bank on penalties in the final. IMC is the first team ever to win the tournament for the second time in history. Back in 2005 they won the tournament for the first time, which was then still an indoor game.
Sponsored by Scrocca, Eurex and KBC the tournament has been a great event to meet the familiar faces again and was as always smoothly organized again by Bennington. Third place was for Eurex and Scrocca ended surprisingly high on the fourth spot.
Found the funny film clip from last Worldcup. North Korean coach giving instructions to his player, Eboué from Ivory Coast joins the meeting and pretends to understand. As far as I know, both of them missed the Financial Tournament.
Klasse gemacht Jungs. Supertoll!
Er is gefraudeerd!! Die dikke werkt er alleen nog op papier…
Kan me trouwens niet voorstellen dat dat veel heeft uitgemaakt…
Ik bedoel die dikke van IMC..
Hoe was verder de stand ?
@ trader jack; Small corrections here; IMC won the throphee in 2005. KBC Bank, not Clearing lost the final.
Dat gifje is echt meesterlijk. Masterly!
Seriously though, when will one of the larger marketmakers hire a few professional footballers as option trader for like one week, and have them play in the tournament?
why would you blow few hundred thousand to win a stupid trophy .. it wouldnt be fair either and others might actually forfeit out of protest !
