Fhigters 2 - 1 Inter77
4443 punters turned up at
Team Fhigters Arena, and despite threatening clouds on the horizon, no rain came.
Nino 'II' Nannariello was the appointed referee with assistance provided by
Ing�lfur �orgr�msson and
Fred Wittenberg. Fhigters tactics involved an interesting 4-4-2 combination. Fhigters fielded:
Mallet -
Behemh�fen,

Maier,
Haraldsson -
Gandil,
Svansj�,

Forte -
Mandic,
M�ller.
Inter77 had chosen a strategic 4-4-2 formation. The following players had been chosen by Inter77:
Kyhldahl -
Henderson,
No�z,
Hansen,
Biafra -
Pallez,
Ruchenstein,
Glasman,
Ryser -
Retana,
Knipfel.
Inter77 used their wretched (2) skill at pressing to cut off the attack angles of their opponents all over the field. 8 minutes into the game, a swerving free kick by
Damjan Mandic almost resulted in the home team taking the lead, but the shot glanced harmlessly off the frame of the goal. After 16 minutes of play,
Kilian M�ller gave the home team a 1 - 0 lead after an attack coming in from the right.
Per Svansj� increased the lead for Fhigters to 2 - 0, getting a head onto a hooked ball from the right. The ball looked to have taken a deflection on the way in, but he's claiming it! Halftime score was 2 - 0. Fhigters claimed to have seen most of the ball, and the statistics agreed with them - possession being 51 percent.
The referee showed Fhigters's
Jens Haraldsson the yellow card after a particularly nasty challenge. Inter77's
Alois Biafra went down after a savage challenge, but could continue playing after some medical attention. A bit later, Inter77's
Guido Henderson easily reduced the lead to 2 - 1 after a misunderstanding in the home side's central defence.
Alessandro Ruchenstein of Inter77 received a yellow card after 61 minutes for unsportsmanlike behaviour. At this time in the match, Inter77 were using their skill at pressing to successfully stifle the game. The referee showed Inter77's
Gregory No�z the yellow card after a particularly nasty challenge.
Kilian M�ller was the unlucky victim and couldn't continue the game, so Fhigters's
Mischa Calo had to come off the bench. Inter77 were close to putting the equaliser away after 70 minutes as the opposing defence lost control of the ball to
Reini Knipfel in a scuffle towards the left of the goal, but in the end the ball was cleared over the dead ball line. Possession in the forty-five minutes was dominated by Inter77, with 51 percent of the ball.
The most dominating Fhigters player was without a doubt
F�nsu Mallet.
Mischa Calo on the other hand, had a terrible day. The most dominating Inter77 player was without a doubt
Jonas Hansen.
Alois Biafra on the other hand, had a terrible day. The match ends 2 - 1.
