For the third place, in a penalty shootout, the Detalia Aurora Warriors outscored People Support, 3-1.
The Detalia Aurora Warriors had a record of 2 wins 3 draws and 1 loss and upset the much higher-seeded People Support, which finished with a 3 win, 2 draw, and 1 loss record.
Tsuneishi also bagged the muse competition, which was held in the opening ceremony before the kickoff of the football matches.
The tournament was participated in by 7 teams comprised of members and invited non-members of the company: Detalia Aurora Warriors, Detalia Aurora Kings,

The true meaning of the tournament was not for competition, but for the promotion of friendship, camaraderie and fun through football.
