1440: The team are on their way out of the tunnel, at the magnificent San Siro stadium in Milan, Italy, the teams walk past the trophy they all want to lift, some of these Benidormida players mut be thinking about the loss to River last year in Amsterdam, can they avenge that loss
1444: Here is the Benidormida team for this final: IVAROV, LIBERMANN, VAN EIJDEN, JARIC, GRIMI, LEAO, MANUEL JOSE, GOKCEK VEDERSON, NTIBAZONKIZA, BEN SAHAR, ADRIAN LOPEZ.
1445: Gibney must be thinking about the final game of the season, no Reyes, Valeny, Stremer, but top scorer Sahar must be the dangerman for Hammarby, and will Charlie Davies come back to haunt Gibney for not signing him in January.
1500: We're off here at the San Siro, Benidormida as usual come out at a blistering pace.
1503: Lopez jinks inside the defence, shoots, forces a save and their first corner of the match.
1503: GOAL: NTIBAZONKIZA 1-0 BENIDORMIDA - The corner was swung in, Vederson got a flick on the ball and it sat up nicely for Ntiba to power home the header, The Spaniards strike first.
1508: Ntibazonkiza is fired up and races down the right flank floats in a cross, Adrian rises and his header is saved.
1523: GOAL: NTIBAZONKIZA 2-0 BENIDORMIDA - Another corner swung in, the defence head it away, it falls to Ntiba and he smashes it into the top corner, what a goal, what a game he's having.
1530: It just gets worse for Hammarby, Adrian Lopez was through on goal and Chizhov brings him down, the card is out and the colour is Red, Hammarby down to 10 men, and 2 goals down. and the foul was in the box it's a penalty.
1531: Ntibazonkiza steps on for his hat-trick, SAVED....GOAL...Ntiba's pen was saved but Adrian was there for the rebound GOAL: ADRIAN LOPEZ 3-0 BENIDORMIDA
1547: The ref blows the whistle and brings the first half to an end.
1603:The second half is about to start, Gibney makes 2 changes, Gutierrez comes on for Ben Sahar with this game over there is no need to risk him, and Vederson comes off for Portuguese and Benidormida Legend Minanda who retires at the end of the season.
1618:The crowd are standing to applaude Ntibazonkiza, Remy is replacing him and the crowd are showing the Burundi international their love.
1624: GOAL: ADRIAN LOPEZ 4-0 BENIDORMIDA - This game is well and truly over Manuel Jose finds Adrian in the box, he steps past his marker and places the ball in the corner.
1627: GOAL: REMY 5-0 BENIDORMIDA - Remy picks the ball up deep, he played a 1-2 with Adrian, still1 defender to beat, he looked up and fired a 30 yard bullet into the top corner, what a goal to wrap up this final.
1650: FULL TIME: The referee has ended Hammarby's pain, looked at his watch, and blows his whistle, BENIDORMIDA have won the cup, what great scenes we are witnesing here.
1700: The players have all received their medals, and are just waiting for the crowning moment, Captain Rens van Eijden has his medal, and he lifts the Cup, the fireworks and streamers go off, the Spanish fans are still dancing and singing, what a rollercoaster ride this team has gone on, and I don't think Gibney is quite finished with them yet.
