Demolatorii 4 - 1 Grilled
27 spectators arrived at Old Lady Arena, where weather conditions were pretty good for football.
Chip de Schepper was the appointed referee with assistance provided by
Allard Tergau and
Julio Vera. Demolatorii started off with a 3-4-3 lineup. The following players had been chosen: Dobre - Focseneanu, Rutherford, Holbrant - Gustavsson, Ambroso, Bengtsson, Grindberg - Prídavek, Ciubuc, Randall.
Grilled had chosen a strategic 3-5-2 formation. Lineup: Öhmo - Siu-Cheung, Pakpao, Dewilde - Dai-Lin, Ju-Hau, Siu-Yue, Stanton, Kolesov - Hjortlind, Hobson.
Grilled saw most attack opportunities on the wings. After 27 minutes, Grilled put themselves up by 0 - 1, as
Ulf Hjortlind finished off a strike from the left with a real cannon placed at the far post.
Asher Stanton received some harsh words from his coach after he acted foolishly 36 minutes into the match, probably out of lack of experience, and almost let an opponent score.
Robert Randall pulled a real crowd pleaser as he, after 36 minutes, wove through the guests' entire central defence and put the 1 - 1 equaliser away. Demolatorii were very close to putting themselves one up after 36 minutes as
Georges Ambroso got through on the left, but failing in concentration, he shot the ball wide. Demolatorii took the lead 37 minutes into the game by 2 to 1, as
Robert Randall elegantly received a long range pass through the middle, finishing off with a half-volley shot just below the bar. A cross coming in on the right hand side left
Ulf Hjortlind alone in front of the goal after 37 minutes but his shot was woeful. Halftime score was 2 - 1. Demolatorii held the ball, with a clear 58 percent of possession.
The referee showed Grilled's
Ulf Hjortlind the yellow card after a particularly nasty challenge. 55 minutes into the match, the visitors' central line of defence had to look on as
Robert Randall dashed through, knocking home 3 - 1 for Demolatorii. At that,
Robert Randall was noted down for a hat trick. After this, Demolatorii lowered the tempo in order to concentrate on their defensive efforts. 58 minutes in, Grilled's
Zhan Ju-Hau received a yellow card for going into a challenge studs first. Demolatorii put themselves up 4 - 1 when
Dumitru Ciubuc broke through on the right, leaving the entire defensive box behind him.

Tim Hobson had a couple of good opportunities to reply, but the home team's keeper
Paul Dobre just wouldn't surrender. Demolatorii held the ball, with a clear 59 percent of possession.
The most dominating Demolatorii player was without a doubt
Georges Ambroso.
Jonas Gustavsson was a disappointment, however. The most dominating Grilled player was without a doubt
Asher Stanton.

Tim Hobson on the other hand, had a terrible day. The match ends 4 - 1.
