iv id="matchReport"> Clear skies welcomed the 4371 spectators who had made their way to Nou Kamp. Pierre Guillemaud was the appointed referee with assistance provided by Henrik Moos and 林 (Lin) 聪毅 (Congyi).Vedranovi tactics involved an interesting 3-5-2 combination.The following players had been chosen: Noršić - Milutinović, Memija, Nedeljković - Murias, Csonka, Žonja, Karanović, Haji Shamsaei - Kadić, Bamio.
Grilled started off with a 3-5-2 lineup.They fielded: Rykowski - van der Ban, bin Ahmad, Bakhtiar - Won, Xin Seng, Parvathaneni, Muthyala, Isufi - Dvorak, Wan Kang.
It was obvious that Vedranovi were using their weak pressing skill as their primary tactic.8 minutes into the game, L. Wan Kang was a hair's breadth away from giving Grilled the lead with a shot from over on the left. A prompt block by V. Noršić saved the home team that time.Grilled's goal to make the score 0 - 1 came via a questionable penalty, but R. Isufi struck it home without a second thought.After several obvious shirt pulling incidents, K. Parvathaneni got himself booked. The manager of Grilled was not happy.13 minutes into the game, J. Nedeljković came close to levelling the score with a dangerous shot from the centre of the area that went just over the bar.After 16 minutes a combination in the middle resulted in a through ball for G. Dvorak who increased Grilled's lead to 0 - 2.After the ball was lifted in from the left, R. bin Ahmad was on his own in the home side's penalty area and should have scored after 20 minutes, but missed, probably due to lack of concentration.The referee showed Vedranovi's A. Kadić the yellow card after a particularly nasty challenge.The opposing supporters gave the referee an earful when he only gave R. Isufi from Grilled a yellow card after a mistimed challenge from behind 35 minutes into the game. That was far too lenient!0 - 2 was the halftime score.Grilled enjoyed most of the ball, as they maintained 60 percent of possession.
L. Wan Kang wanted to play on, but the Grilled coach had other ideas, and he was replaced 46 minutes into the game by P. Bellamoli.C. Won of Grilled took advantage of a mistake on the home side's right after 57 minutes which increased the away team's lead to 0 - 3.Grilled's C. Won was shown a yellow card for standing over the ball and blocking an opponent's quick free kick after 66 minutes.R. Isufi increased the visitors' lead by putting a volley away after a pass from the right. 0 - 4.With 76 minutes played, the excellent ball from the wing by Vedranovi's R. Murias reached R. Bamio's head, and he is not one to miss such an opportunity - 1 - 4.78 minutes into the game Vedranovi broke through on the left wing and A. Karanović managed to reduce the lead to 2 - 4.The Grilled free kick 81 minutes into the match seemed wasted, as the shot was both short and off target. But was this actually a plan? The ball landed at the feet of G. Dvorak, who was completely unmarked in the box. That's 2 - 5!A late sliding challenge from A. Kadić was deemed to be his second yellow card offence by the referee, resulting in him being sent off, and Vedranovi left a man down.The coach of Grilled was happy with the game so far, but still wanted to change the line up. After 85 minutes, C. Meyer came on for G. Dvorak.The match ends 2 - 5.Possession in this half belonged to Grilled, who controlled the ball 60 percent of the time.
R. Murias performed admirably for Vedranovi.However, N. Memija made a disastrous appearance.Most important Grilled player was C. Meyer.H. Bakhtiar on the other hand, had a terrible day.
