Arsenal Iasi fielded a 3-5-2 lineup. For Grilled Birds, the formation of choice was a 2-5-3. It was an obvious ambition of Grilled to play a wide game with their divine (+8) (28) ability to attack down the wings. Arsenal's Mircia Petrăchescu skillfully knocked a pass over the defense that was received by 苏 (Su) 靖嵩 (Jingsong), and he just managed to slide it past the opposing keeper for 1 - 0. Chad Thach came close to leveling the score 27 minutes into the game, as he was set up with a through ball coming in from the left, but his shot hit the post. Arsenal showed their counter-attacking skill 28 minutes into the match by breaking through the middle, with Grégory Migaud scoring an easy goal for 2 - 0. Players in Grilled heard their coach's words ringing in their ears and steered their central attacks to the wings instead. Grilled's right side looked dangerous after 36 minutes, as Joe Reece broke through. Sezgi Örüner continued to stifle them, however, as he made the save look easy. 2 - 0 was the halftime score. Let's go to the Twittersphere to see what the fans think of the game so far! says The away team improved the scoreline to 2 - 1, as Chia Kwang Tse was able to strike home thanks to a good play on the left 47 minutes into the match. It was obvious that Grilled had instructions to attack on the wings instead of in the middle. Grilled's right side looked dangerous 58 minutes in, but Sezgi Örüner made a good save on 夏 (Ha) 其材 (Qicai)'s hard shot towards the top corner. A run up the right wing paid off for Grilled as Lim An Keng hit a wicked shot past the keeper to tie the game. 2 - 2 after 67 minutes. As the 70 minute mark approached, the Grilled manager decided it was time for a substitution. Orest Tokarz reluctantly made way for Evandro La Face. 夏 (Ha) 其材 (Qicai) seemed to be defying gravity as he elegantly headed in a goal for Grilled after a corner kick that was nicely executed by Federico Parada. That makes it 2 - 3. Attacking on the wings was the theme of the day for Grilled, and they were successfully passing the ball outside from the middle.

The home crowd did not lose faith and cheered their team on as they strove to get back into the game. The fans were rewarded after 81 minutes when Noel Copeland burst forward, 5-holed the central defender and then mischievously lobbed the ball over the advancing goalie to make the score 3 - 4. Definitely a SportsCenter Top 10 candidate – DA-DA-DA! DA-DA-DA! After 82 minutes, 苏 (Su) 靖嵩 (Jingsong) rushed down the middle past the away team's defenders to score the 4 - 4 goal. Brian 'Was Born' Reddy of Grilled received a yellow card after 83 minutes for unsportsmanlike behavior. The players were tired, but when the referee announced that there would be 3 minutes of added time, they welcomed the extra opportunity to make an impact. The match ends 4 - 4. Grilled did a good job holding on to the ball, with 57 percent of possession. We'll be back after these interminable commercial messages.

The most outstanding Arsenal player was without a doubt Petru Orlandea. Good thing Ronny Dösig isn't a horse, because he'd surely be sent to the glue factory after that performance. Grilled's best player was Gústav Thoroddsen. Even six year old fans were wincing at the poor play by Lim An Keng today.
