The Nations Cup final is the last match of competition, and the result determines which country's team is declared Oceania champion. As of the 2024 tournament, if after 90 minutes of regular play the score is a draw, an additional 30-minute period of play, called extra time, is added. If such a game is still tied after extra time, it is decided by penalty shoot-out. The team that wins the penalty shoot-out are then declared champions. In 2008, there was no final played; the winner was only decided in a round-robin tournament.
New Zealand is the most successful team in the history of the tournament, winning six titles. New Zealand has won the most finals with five, followed by Australia with four. New Caledonia has qualified for the final twice without success.
