GBR 4 - 2 Grilled
ather conditions were fairly good for football, and FC GBR Arena saw a crowd turnout of 100000.
Jacek Podpora was the appointed referee with assistance provided by
Denis Vomáčka and
Israel Bagazgoitia. GBR had chosen a strategic 3-5-2 formation. The following players had been chosen: Vikwald - Shiu-Hun, Rahmgård, Thorkvist - Westerkvist, Chalmers, Canonica, Andergård, Krysiuk - Falkenstål, Sunesson.
Grilled had chosen a strategic 3-5-2 formation. The following players had been chosen: Bao-Tam - Pakpao, Tuan-Mu, Alcántara - Dai-Lin, Ju-Hau, Stanton, Kek-Tjiang, Noor Yadah - Hjortlind, Stern.
Grilled immediately set off using their skill at pressing their opponents. A corner kick created great disorder in the penalty area with a goal nearly scored by
Cheng Shiu-Hun. At last, GBR's
Tomek Krysiuk was able to shove the ball in. 1-0. A magnificent combination in the middle resulted in GBR's
Bengt Sunesson putting the lead up to 2 - 0.
Joe Stern had a lethal looking free kick that grazed the post after 19 minutes. With 19 minutes showing on the scoreboard clock, Grilled showed some good morale and were able to reduce the score to 2 - 1 when
Ulf Hjortlind got past the home side's central defenders right in front of the goal. Grilled's ability to press their opponents all over the field paid off frequently. The referee showed Grilled's
Ulf Hjortlind the yellow card after a particularly nasty challenge.
Walter Canonica was the unlucky victim and couldn't continue the game, so GBR's
Hor Kan-Wee had to come off the bench. GBR added another goal to their lead as
Örjan 'Pavan' Falkenstål struck home the 3 - 1 goal after an attack from the left set him up unmarked in front of the keeper. The teams went for the halftime break at 3 - 1. GBR held the ball, with a clear 54 percent of possession.
Grilled managed to reduce to 3 - 2 as
Ulf Hjortlind finished off a well-played combination from the left, carving through the defensive box. With 73 minutes having been played, Grilled's
Ulf Hjortlind had to leave the pitch after receiving his second booking. A magnificent combination in the middle resulted in GBR's
Örjan 'Pavan' Falkenstål putting the lead up to 4 - 2. The structure of the game started to change as GBR decided to pull back and meet their opponents in their own half. Grilled had a fair chance to reply after 85 minutes due to some fine moves down the left, but in the end
Joe Stern was slow to keep up with the play and was unable to make it into the penalty box to apply a finish. As
David Chalmers had, completely unprovoked, swept the legs out from under an opponent in front of a linesman, the referee gave the GBR player a red card without batting an eyelid. The forty-five minutes were dominated by Grilled, with an impressive 62 percent possession of the ball.
The most dominating GBR player was without a doubt
Alexander Andergård.
Hor Kan-Wee on the other hand, had a terrible day. The most dominating Grilled player was without a doubt
Shen Kek-Tjiang.
Nui Pakpao on the other hand, had a terrible day. The match ends 4 - 2.
