The 2016 final

[edit]

The 2016 final was played between two Auckland teams Forrest Hill Milford and Glenfield Rovers at QBE Stadium before the men's Chatham Cup final. This was Forrest Hill-Milford second final appearance, having lost previously in the 2014 final, while Glenfield Rovers had won the cup the last two seasons and was looking for the three-peat. Forrest Hill-Milford won the game 4–3 on penalties after finishing 1–1 at full time and 2–2 at the end of extra time. Tessa Berger was the winner of the Maia Jackman trophy for the most valuable player.[1][2] This final is also notable for being the first women's final to be televised live in New Zealand.[3]
