Fairly good weather for football had drawn a crowd of 2377 to
Krakatao Island.
Yair Liberman was the appointed referee with assistance provided by
Pascal Gleisdreieck and
Vito Oliviero.
Volcano decided to use a 3-4-3 set up.
Starters: Bernardo Rodrigues - Quevedo, Mrugała, Janczewski - Lotto, Alamouti, Hen, Błaszczuk - Romaszewski, Kosznik, Wlaźlak.
A 3-5-2 alignment was the formation of choice for A.S.Piazzarola.
Lineup: Damavand - Vandersmissen, Krokosz, Blimmel - Thomson, Mouré Romanillos, Malmila, Putzu, Humaid - Bertolino, Zadora.
Counter-attacking seemed to be the preferred strategy of Volcano.
A.S.Piazzarola tried to focus their attacks down the middle.
D. Alamouti behaved like an inexperienced youth player after 29 minutes as he gave the ball away to
F. Mouré Romanillos. Lucky for him though, there was no goal.
Central attacks were the recipe of the day for A.S.Piazzarola, as they moved the ball from the wings to the middle with startling regularity.
Volcano caught their opponents out with a clever counterattack down the right wing 33 minutes into the match.
T. Janczewski was able to finish off the move - 1 - 0.
A.S.Piazzarola will have to do without
F. Bertolino for a time, due to a bad foot injury at the 34 minute mark. He was substituted by
A. Godlieb.
A.S.Piazzarola tied it all up, 35 minutes in, after a spectacular goal by
F. Mouré Romanillos, who miraculously broke through the home side's central defence, making it 1 - 1.
D. Hen gave Volcano the lead as he successfully challenged the guests' central defenders, then slotted the ball into the bottom corner, giving the keeper no chance. 2 - 1
A.S.Piazzarola had a good opportunity to attack on the wing, but remembered their instructions to go for middle attacks.
2 - 1 was the score after the first half.
A.S.Piazzarola had most of the ball, with 56 percent of possession.
M. Lotto left the field with a smile on his face as he was substituted 46 minutes into the game, as his team was in the lead.
G. Kubieniec was the replacement.
The Volcano players could smell victory in the air.
C. Romaszewski wasn't in a hurry to leave the field as he was substituted for
M. Migacz after 46 minutes.
Volcano put themselves up 3 - 1 when
D. Alamouti broke through on the right, leaving the entire defence trailing in his wake.
The coach of Volcano was happy with the game so far, but still wanted to change the line up. After 69 minutes,
M. Andrych came on for
M. Quevedo.
The visitors replied 80 minutes into the game, reducing the home side's lead to 3 - 2, as
A. Godlieb dashed up the middle, easily lobbing the ball over the home team's keeper.
Volcano managed to extend their lead to 4 - 2 when
M. Andrych cut in neatly from the left side and struck a fine shot past the away team's goalkeeper.
85 minutes in, A.S.Piazzarola's
M. Humaid received a yellow card for going into a challenge studs first.
A.S.Piazzarola claimed to have seen most of the ball, and the statistics agreed with them - possession being 56 percent.
Most important Volcano player was
M. Migacz.
M. Andrych on the other hand, had a terrible day.
A. Godlieb performed admirably for A.S.Piazzarola.
F. Blimmel was a disappointment, however.
The match ends 4 - 2.
