buenavista 0 - 3 SIMOHTEAM (363966210)

Fairly good weather for football had drawn a crowd of 2918 to Isla buena suerte. Radomir Chamski was the appointed referee with assistance provided by Carlo Evangelisti and Cornelio Henderson. buenavista had chosen a strategic 4-3-2 formation. They fielded: Tiddia - Naboni, Guastardo, Grande, Pasquato - Benuzzi, Schlosser, Cerruti - Rothuizen, Nefzi.

SIMOHTEAM started off with a 4-5-1 lineup. The following players had been chosen: Caron - Arnold, Cisneros, De Loayza, Lafont - Sucupira, Gandin, Cornelie, Brès, Ratel - Tilleni.

buenavista's defence sent a ball soaring up the middle on a beautiful counterattack with 7 minutes gone, but P. Rothuizen's finish was met by the reaching hands of the keeper. D. Pasquato acted foolishly after 8 minutes, giving the ball up to SIMOHTEAM's E. Tilleni who had no trouble finding the back of the net. 0 - 1. When P. Rothuizen was badly injured by a couple of strong tackles after 32 minutes, buenavista fans were unhappy to discover that it was not possible to make a substitution. 35 minutes into the game, buenavista seemed a little tentative in their play as their organization fell to inadequate. After 42 minutes of game time, E. Tilleni had an excellent opportunity to add to the visitors' lead, clipping a volley hooked in from the right, but G. Tiddia was in the right place and tipped the ball over for a corner. 43 minutes into the game, buenavista had difficulty finding their positions and their organisation dropped to inadequate. Halftime score was 0 - 1. SIMOHTEAM had most of the ball, with 62 percent of possession.

During the break, buenavista's coach went through the team's tactics yet again, getting them up to solid organisation. A drive down the left side allowed M. Lafont to get in close and score another goal for SIMOHTEAM after 53 minutes, taking the score to 0 - 2. 56 minutes in, buenavista appeared unsure on how to play and their organisation was only weak. Some things can only be learned through experience, and N. Gandin should take his lesson to heart after nearly gifting buenavista a goal with 57 minutes of the match played. M. Cisneros received a delicate pass through the home side's central defence after 87 minutes, and chipped it past the flailing keeper to score making it 0 - 3. The SIMOHTEAM fans went wild, whilst the home fans started to think about leaving early. SIMOHTEAM enjoyed most of the ball, as they maintained 67 percent of possession.

buenavista's best player was F. Schlosser. On the other hand, K. Nefzi's play was disheartening. The most dominating SIMOHTEAM player was without a doubt M. Cisneros. C. Sucupira turned in a dismal performance, however. The match ends 0 - 3.
