Stormarn Blackbirds fielded a 3-4-3 lineup. For Grilled Birds, the formation of choice was a 2-5-3. Down the middle came Chad Thach, making a fantastic play that nearly saw Grilled take the lead after 11 minutes, but Joerg Gsödl preserved the tie. Grilled took the lead after Chan Ze Han curved a free kick into the net. 0 - 1. 18 minutes into the match, Blackbirds's Bertil Lerche maneuvered his way around the opposition on the left flank, delighting the crowd with his twists and turns. The effort paid off as the ball found the back of the net, evening the score at 1 - 1. The guests took the lead 20 minutes into the match, after a right-side attack resulted in Gandhik Chitre scoring to make it 1 - 2. Hwang Teck Fu was, after 21 minutes, almost able to extend the visitors' lead with a well placed diving header after the ball had looped into the center, but the home side's keeper Joerg Gsödl made the save. 1 - 2 was the score after the first half. Well, look at this! Cardi B is on the Enormotron in naught but giant sunglasses and a Twisted Metal F.C. tank top. I've not seen anything like it before. 46 minutes into the match, the referee signaled for a Grilled substitution. Joe Reece came on for Chan Ze Han. As Chan Ze Han left the field, the coach signaled to Aw Keng Chuan to be the new set pieces taker. With a shot lofted in from just outside the penalty area 70 minutes in, Helmut Großkreutz of Blackbirds evened the score to 2 - 2. Blackbirds's coach was furious with Bruno Gropius after he picked up a yellow for saying one too many words to the ref. Grilled had a good opportunity to score the go-ahead goal after a combination on the right but the home team's keeper Joerg Gsödl saved Joe Reece's shot that was headed straight to the top corner. Grilled's Hwang Teck Fu managed to lose the defenders as he burst through the right side and scored, putting the visitors ahead, 2 - 3. As the 85 minute mark approached, the Grilled manager decided it was time for a substitution. Brian 'Was Born' Reddy reluctantly made way for Paulino Trindade. It was announced by the fourth official that he estimated stoppage time to be around 1 minutes. This meant there could still be an extra attack or two left in the match! The match ends 2 - 3. Now to our celebrity commentator for a hot take. Over to you, Snoop! Joerg Gsödl performed admirably for Blackbirds. Good thing Bertil Lerche isn't a horse, because he'd surely be sent to the glue factory after that performance. Grilled's top performer was clearly Lim An Keng. You can tell it was nickel beer night yesterday at the local bar because Dimitris Germanakos seemed to stumble all over the pitch.
