Fiorentina and West Ham are on a trophy hunt after a long time in Europe. Fiorentina were the first champions of the UEFA Cup Winners’ Cup in the 1960-1961 season, and West Ham lifted the trophy in the same competition in the 1964-1965 season. Attention is focusing on which team will head to home fans with the UECL trophy, Fiorentina, which is aiming for the trophy after 62 years, and West Ham, which is challenging the championship for the first time in 58 years.
Fiorentina will face an English club for the first time in UEFA competitions since facing Tottenham Hotspur in the 2015-2016 UEFA Europa League. This season Fiorentina has scored the most goals in the competition with 36 points from 14 UECL matches. Artur Cabral tied for first place in the tournament with 7 goals, Luka Jovic with 6 goals and Nicolas Gonzalez with 5 goals and 2 assists stand out. Captain Cristiano Biraghi, who recorded one goal and five assists, is also performing well. Fiorentina, who finished the final match of Italy’s Serie A with a pleasant 3-1 victory, continues the momentum and challenges to win the European competition for the first time in 62 years.
West Ham, who reached the final of the European competition after 47 years, will meet a Serie A team for the first time in about 17 years since they faced Palermo FC in September 2006. Michael Antonio scored the most with six goals, while Jarrod Bowen energized the team’s offense with four goals and two assists. The midfield combination of Declan Rice and Thomas Souchek ahead of the match at home also played a stable role. Attention is focusing on whether West Ham, who recorded 13 wins and 1 draw in 14 UECL games this season, will win the trophy for the first time in 58 years with an undefeated championship.
For some players, the final, which will be held in Prague, Czech Republic, is even more meaningful. Three players, Fiorentina’s Antonin Barak, West Ham’s Soucek and Vladimir Choupal, are active as players for the Czech national football team. It will be interesting to see which of the Czech national team players who have the golden opportunity to lift the trophy will lead their team to victory in their hometown.
