Winning 5 - 0 Grilled
e 92912 fans in attendance at Winning Eleven Arena were roasting in the hot sun.
Lilian Gagnon was the appointed referee with assistance provided by
Marlon Wuthrich and
Mike Alveren. Winning decided to use a 3-5-2 set up. The following players had been chosen: Guardiola - Chan-San, Ashworth, Mönkhof - Van-Phuoc, Hultander, Jacobsson, Siu-Yue, Delarue - Avramidis, Kai-Chung.
A 3-5-2 alignment was the formation of choice for Grilled. Starters: Abed-Sulaiman - Fredgård, Bona, Borup - van Liere, Spirig, Kek-Tjiang, Paullin, Han Kok - Martinsson, Kadak.
After 2 minutes of play,
Zang Kai-Chung gave the home team a 1 - 0 lead after an attack coming in from the right. After 3 minutes,
Terkel Borup made a complete fool of himself when he dropped the ball to
Nikos Avramidis who shuffled it into the goal for Winning. 2-0. After an industrious effort down the middle,
Zang Kai-Chung could have closed the game off after 6 minutes, but his finishing shot hit the post. Winning's
David Ashworth swung in a good chance from the left, but the visitors' defence were able to clear the ball. Grilled certainly deserved a goal after some stunning play down the left, but
Lorenz Paullin just wasn't able to finish. It was 2 - 0 at the break. Winning held the ball, with a clear 57 percent of possession.
Winning added another goal to their lead as
David Ashworth struck home the 3 - 0 goal after an attack from the left set him up unmarked in front of the keeper. Winning added another goal to their lead as
Zang Kai-Chung struck home the 4 - 0 goal after an attack from the left set him up unmarked in front of the keeper.
Yin Van-Phuoc gave Winning supporters even more to cheer about when he increased the lead to 5 - 0 after 56 minutes, following a good exchange of passes on the right that the away team failed to deal with. At this point in the game, defending their lead became the main priority for Winning. Grilled's
Terkel Borup was shown a yellow card for standing over the ball and blocking an opponent's quick free kick after 72 minutes. 82 minutes in, Winning's
Karim Delarue received a yellow card for going into a challenge studs first. The Grilled player who had to be helped off the pitch, was
Terkel Borup as he was unable to finish the game.
Luis Alcántara came in to finish the match. Winning held the ball, with a clear 59 percent of possession.
The most dominating Winning player was without a doubt
David Ashworth.
Zang Kai-Chung was a disappointment, however. Grilled's best player was
Shen Kek-Tjiang. On the other hand,
Luis Alcántara's play was disheartening. The match ends 5 - 0.
