TPS Turku Cruise Past HJS Akatemia 3-0 in Suomen Cup

TPS Turku booked their place in the next round of the Finland Suomen Cup with a comfortable 3-0 victory over HJS Akatemia on 13 May 2026. The host side controlled the match from start to finish, displaying superior technique and organisation.

First-Half Patience Pays Off

TPS dominated possession in the opening period but faced a stubborn HJS Akatemia defence that sat deep. The breakthrough came in the 28th minute when a well-worked move down the right flank ended with a low cross turned in at the near post. They doubled the lead just before half-time through a powerful header from a corner.

Sealing the Win After the Break

The second half followed a similar pattern. TPS kept their shape and created several opportunities, eventually adding a third goal midway through the half after a neat passing sequence carved open the defence. HJS Akatemia rarely threatened the TPS goal, with their best chance coming from a long-range shot that sailed narrowly over the bar.

What the Result Means

TPS Turku advance with a professional display that will please their manager. The clean sheet was particularly satisfying, while the team’s ability to break down a defensive opponent bodes well for upcoming cup challenges. HJS Akatemia exit the competition with heads held high after a spirited effort.
