Fighting spirit: Clark plays despite knee injury

That was the shock moment of the game: Nordic Storm's star quarterback Jadrian Clark injured his right knee in an unfortunate collision with several players in the first half of the Semi Final against Vienna Vikings and had to limp off the field, supported by two team docs.

The next two plays were played by backup quarterback Alexander Kronborg Bjerre, who led his team well across the field before Clark took over again and finally ended the drive with a touchdown pass to make it 13-14.

Before halftime, Nordic Storm gained possession once more after the 2-minute warning. Clark stayed on the field, but could only move very cautiously and uncertainly.

True leader Clark

After halftime, Clark came back and showed himself to be a true leader, even though he was injured. However, the Storm quarterback moved more fluidly overall and ensured that his team remained within one score of the lead until the end with a touchdown in the third quarter.

Clark completed 27 of his 46 passes and threw three touchdowns. But it wasn't enough for the big final next Sunday. Vienna advances to Championship Game 2025 due to a 28-20 victory over Nordic Storm.
