Format

In the final, the two semi-final winners played each other, with the host team decided by draw, which was held on 5 March 2019 at the OFC Headquarters in Auckland, New Zealand. Based on the draw, Magenta (winner of semi-final 2) were the home team.

If the match was level at the end of 90 minutes of normal playing time, extra time would be played (two periods of 15 minutes each), where each team would be allowed to make a fourth substitution. If still tied after extra time, the match would be decided by a penalty shoot-out to determine the winners.
