In case of a tie, extra-time was played, but unlike the previous seasons in the league, matches that ended in a draw after extra time were not replayed. The match between Akademisk Boldklub and Kjøbenhavns Boldklub in the spring of 1894, which ended in a 3–3 draw after extended playing time, thus became the first draw in the history of the Football Tournament that was not replayed.[1]

Overview

It was contested by 5 teams, and Akademisk Boldklub won the championship for the third time in a row. And at the time, winning a championship for three years in a row meant gaining the legitimate property of the cup, thus Boldklub gained the right to keep the trophy.[1]
