Másnap 4 - 2 Nicol (383889103)

The 33855 fans in attendance at BÉKÁSI ARÉNA were roasting in the hot sun. Børge Spørring was the appointed referee with assistance provided by Stoffel van Stein and Artturi Fräki. Everyone was excited about the upcoming Budapest derby and the crowd was divided evenly. Másnap decided to use a 3-5-2 set up. The following players took the field: Szabolcs - Martínez Delgado, Flandre, Guidetti - Burin, Tichon, Derksen, Ryymin, Krüger - Knopik, Stoklasa.

Nicol started off with a 3-5-2 lineup. Lineup: Graj - Buran, Wülfing, Mogensen - Bogyay, Dutca, Puntí, Pintore, Braak - Hobiger, Sequeiros.

Másnap used their ability to concentrate their attacks in the middle of the pitch, rather than on the wings. Másnap took the lead 4 minutes in, as L. Knopik broke through on the left and put the 1 - 0 shot just beyond the reach of the outstretched keeper. A lot of people in the terraces claimed the penalty resulting in Nicol's J. Wülfing equaliser for 1 - 1 was a mistake by the referee. He did, however, have a very good view of the situation from his position. The visitors' central defence should have had no trouble clearing the pass to L. Knopik, but the Másnap player managed to shrug them off and fired a low shot past the keeper to give his team the lead. 2 - 1! Másnap's D. Martínez Delgado was shown a yellow card after 26 minutes for slicing down an opponent. Másnap's O. Burin had an excellent opportunity after 28 minutes, shooting after receiving a pass from the right hand side, but he missed the goal by miles! After 31 minutes, the away team failed to deal with a good exchange of passes on the right, and M. Stoklasa gave the Másnap supporters even more to cheer about when he increased the lead to 3 - 1. Halftime score was 3 - 1. Possession in this half belonged to Másnap, who controlled the ball 61 percent of the time.

62 minutes in, Másnap's M. Derksen received a yellow card for going into a challenge studs first. L. Knopik should probably have put his team up another goal after 71 minutes, but some great goalkeeping by K. Graj kept the visitors in the game. S. Dutca stunned the crowd with a brilliant counterattack from the left, giving Nicol the goal to make it 3 - 2. T. Ryymin of Másnap received a yellow card after 75 minutes for unsportsmanlike behaviour. G. Sequeiros's technique was perfect on this sunny day and led to some breathtaking tricks that bamboozled the defence. Másnap increased the lead as M. Derksen struck to make the score 4 - 2 after an attack from the left left him unmarked in front of the keeper. Másnap had most of the ball, with 56 percent of possession.

The most dominating Másnap player was without a doubt A. Tichon. B. Szabolcs on the other hand, had a terrible day. Nicol's top performer was clearly D. Hobiger. However, P. Bogyay made a disastrous appearance. The match ends 4 - 2.
