No Mark, it’s just that Benny Feilhaber is extremely small. I think this trophy was originally designed for pointy football to be lifted by 300 pound linebackers. But then that fell through and they decided to use it for a soccer tournament…
As I posted on the Craven Cottage Newsround who have been following their Fulhams boys in the Gold Cup, I referred to it as “the really obnoxiously large and pointy Gold Cup trophy.”

Is it just me, or is the Gold Cup trophy obscenely large?

It’s an odd trophy indeed!
