Grilled 0 - 1 Winning
51 spectators had come to Love Unlimited Arena this cloudy day.
Guillermo Silva Cebrián was the appointed referee with assistance provided by
Wilger van Silfhout and
Paolo Manfrin. The match took place on neutral ground. Grilled started off with a 3-5-2 lineup. They fielded: Abed-Sulaiman - Zywczyn, Bona, Fredgård - Han Kok, Rottman, Kek-Tjiang, Paullin, van Liere - Kadak, Martinsson.
Winning had chosen a strategic 3-5-2 formation. The following players had been chosen: Guardiola - Mönkhof, Chan-San, Jacobsson - Delarue, Hultander, Klintskog, Jin-Ping, Van-Phuoc - Kai-Chung, Avramidis.
Grilled were very close to putting themselves one up after 16 minutes as
Jaan Kadak got through on the left, but failing in concentration, he shot the ball wide.
David Klintskog came close to putting the visiting team one up 20 minutes into the match, following a solo raid down the middle, but
Ahmed Abed-Sulaiman managed to tip the ball to a corner. The teams went for the halftime break at 0 - 0. Winning held the ball, with a clear 55 percent of possession.
Grilled created a good opportunity to score 50 minutes into the match when
Shen Kek-Tjiang's hooked ball from the left created a scuffle in front of the goal, and the visitors' defenders had a hard time clearing the ball. Many thought
Ola Martinsson ought to have been awarded a penalty shot 51 minutes into the game, as he went down trying to dribble around
Jorge Guardiola after a determined run through the middle. Winning held the ball, with a clear 55 percent of possession.
After the regular 90 minutes, the agony of overtime followed. With 94 minutes played, the visitors broke through on the right after some poor defending.
Markus Hultander put the ball away for 0 - 1. Extra time over, Winning were the victors!
Grilled's best player was
Ahmed Abed-Sulaiman.
Ola Martinsson on the other hand, had a terrible day. The most dominating Winning player was without a doubt
Markus Hultander.
Mathias Jacobsson on the other hand, had a terrible day. The match ends 0 - 1.
