Erotico 6 - 2 Vlastou (393159656)

Weather conditions were fairly good for football, and Gruppo Erotico Arena saw a crowd turnout of 1728. Pascal Spicher was the appointed referee. Erotico started off with a 4-4-2 lineup. The following players took the field: Balek - La Manna, Angelov, Bruurs, Meindorfer - Suszczyński, Rosanelli, Donina, Sapienza - Purpuri, Zandee.

Vlastou had chosen a strategic 4-4-2 formation. Lineup: Monteiro - Skardžiukas, Lavanderos, Rodríguez, Dragon - Ignatiou, Tinoco, Ladopoulos, Karnavas - Ledermüller, Cruz.

Vlastou immediately set off using their skill at pressing their opponents. A. La Manna caused the crowd to go mental with his goal up the middle after 8 minutes. This gave Erotico the 1 - 0 lead. With 17 minutes played, D. Rosanelli of Erotico fell dramatically just outside the penalty area. However, the referee was unimpressed, and booked him for diving. A magnificent combination in the middle resulted in Erotico's T. Angelov increasing the lead to 2 - 0. 28 minutes into the game, Erotico were awarded a penalty that B. Sapienza turned into 3 - 0 without a problem. After 33 minutes of play, Vlastou's F. Cruz unexpectedly struck an inside out ball from no angle at all and Y. Karnavas slotted it into the net for 3 - 1. 34 minutes into the game, Vlastou's attack got through on the right, but D. Dragon couldn't handle the ball and his feeble kick wound up in the keeper's arms. Cheers filled the stadium as R. Suszczyński broke through the visitors' central defence to put away the ball to increase the lead to 4 - 1 to Erotico. The opposing supporters gave the referee an earful when he only gave T. Ledermüller from Vlastou a yellow card after a mistimed challenge from behind 39 minutes into the game. That was far too lenient! It was 4 - 1 at the break. Erotico had most of the ball, with 57 percent of possession.

Vlastou were desperate to get a goal back and pushed forward through the middle 84 minutes into the game. After a scramble in the box, the ball dropped to X. Rodríguez, who smashed it home to make the score 4 - 2. A speedy charge from the left side of the field increased the lead of Erotico to 5 - 2 as R. Suszczyński finished it off competently, firing in from an acute angle. After 87 minutes, Erotico were awarded a free kick. Rather than shooting straight at goal, the taker went for an indirect variant which seemed to take his team mates a bit by surprise. P. Zandee did attempt a finish, but from an awkward position, sending the ball into the away fans. Vlastou pressed their opponents, causing the game to be a bit of a stalemate at times. Erotico's D. Rosanelli left the field after 89 minutes because of a nasty blow to the shin. His replacement was W. Juszczyk. Vlastou's talent at pressing frustrated the spectators as the game became a dire midfield struggle. Things were going to get worse for the visitors. C. Donina squirmed through their central defence after 89 minutes, increasing the lead to 6 - 2. Possession in this half belonged to Erotico, who controlled the ball 62 percent of the time.

Erotico's best player was P. Zandee. W. Juszczyk on the other hand, had a terrible day. Vlastou's top performer was clearly X. Rodríguez. A. Monteiro turned in a dismal performance, however. The match ends 6 - 2.
