History
The first ever Socca EuroCup was played in Moldova between 29 March and 2 April 2023. 13 teams from across Europe took part in it.[1] All games were held at the FMF Beach Soccer Arena. In the qualifying, Romania and Georgia finish as group winners. They automatically qualify for the 2023 Socca World Cup. Albania and Cyprus played in the 3rd place match. Albania have won and secured the final qualifying slot for the World Cup.[1][2] In the main competition, Georgia and Croatia facing off in the 3rd place match. Croatia have won 1–0 to take the bronze medals.[1][3] In the final, Kazakhstan and Romania played for gold medals. The game finished as a draw and went to penalties. 2022 Socca World Cup runners-up Kazakshtan have won the first ever Socca EuroCup.[4][5]
The EuroCup returned to Moldova in 2024, and the 2025 edition will also take place at the same venue as in previous years.[6][7]
