With this triumph, Žilina claimed its first trophy in nine years, specifically since the 2011/12 season. For the club, this is its first cup in the era of independence since the 2014/15 season, when they reached the final even without the participation of the two most successful historical clubs – Slovan Bratislava and Spartak Trnava. sport.sk ↗
This significant success means not only the end of a long period without a trophy for Žilina, but will also open the way for it to the qualifying rounds of the Europa League. Great euphoria erupted at the Štadión pod Dubňom as fans celebrated the historic moment. The success also raised questions among the club's management about the future during the summer period. Žilina's coach was proud of his team, while owner Antošík is already considering plans for possible changes to the squad. sme.sk ↗ sme.sk ↗
