In the second semifinal #2 seed Anfield United dominated #3 seed Henderson Royals 8-1. The final match featured an epic rally, with defending champion Anfield United scoring 4 second half goals to edge HopeWeWin 4-3 and earn the SNSA Adult League champions shirts.

The Best of the Rest semifinals were both tight games, with #5 seed Motor City slipping by #8 seed Las Vegas Football Club 6-5, and #7 seed Joga Bonito edging #6 seed Turf Kings 4-3.  The nail biting continued in the title game,  as Joga Bonito held on to edge Motor City 3-2 to win the Best ot the Rest championship.
