Liverpool fan Tekkz dominated in the first leg against Jamie "Jamboo" Rigden, winning 3-0 with goals by Allan Saint-Maximin, Sadio Mane and Son Heung-min.
But Jamboo responded with a superb 4-1 victory in the second leg, taking the contest to a Golden Goal.
The West Ham United fan's dream was ended, however, when Trezeguet powered into the roof of the net for Tekkz in extra-time.

"That was the best leg of FIFA anyone has ever played against me," Tekkz said. "He was crazy in that second leg."
In the other semi-final, AFC Bournemouth's Marc Marley secured a 2-0 first-leg win over Alex "Hashtag Shawrey" Shaw, representing Watford, with Roberto Firmino and Mane on the scoresheet.
An entertaining 3-2 victory in the second leg was enough for Marley to secure a meeting with Tekkz.
