Allianz Little World Cup Finals Crown Youth Champions in Taipei
The 2026 Allianz Little World Cup finals took place on August 1‑2, 2026 at the Taipei Municipal Stadium. Seventy youth teams from Taiwan and abroad competed in five age‑group brackets, with each champion awarded a specially crafted ice‑cream gold cup.
New Taipei Luzhou Football Team won the U15 division, defeating Peace Middle School 2‑0. Forward Lin Bo‑You scored early in the match, earned the Golden Boot award, and later described using an ice cube to stay calm under pressure. The tournament was organized by Allianz Life, which aims to promote grassroots football in Taiwan. Mini Football Association secretary‑general Zhang Wu‑ye said the event provides a safe, happy, and friendly environment for children and builds cooperation among schools, clubs, parents, and local sports resources.
In addition to the domestic competition, the event featured an international friendship series with Indonesia’s Allianz U15 squad and a Thai youth team, fostering cross‑border cultural exchange and giving Taiwanese players exposure to overseas styles of play.
