That brought Team Germany their 5th Gold Medal for these Championships.

In the pupil's division, Team Poland was victorious over Team Germany. The straight
pool match went to Germany; Joshua Filler (GER) won 75:47 over Mikolaj Zabecki (POL). But Filler's teammates were not able to bring their matches home. Can Salim-Giasar (GER) lost 5:7 to Patryk Statkiewicz (POL) in 9-ball while Pawel Kaczmarek (POL) took the 8-ball over David Vu (GER) with 6:4.
