I think the match in 2014 is great.

正确。一个发生在过去时间的“事件”，能否用现在时态进行描述？答案是肯定的。举例说明：

I think the meeting is very important.

I think the meeting last week is very important.

I think the meeting held last week is very important.

第一句，也是说会议已经开过，只是没说具体时间而已。其他两句，特意加上过去时间的定语，是不影响句子时态的。就像一个过去时间的定语从句也无法影响主句的时态一样。例如：

The man you met yesterday is his father.
