Baryboys 2 - 2 Lost(r) (365913789)

Weather conditions were fairly good for football, and Mestaya Arena saw a crowd turnout of 36950. Tawatchai Kiatyothin was the appointed referee with assistance provided by Job Schoppert and Bent Knutsen. Baryboys decided to use a 3-5-2 set up. They fielded: Lozano - Sitař, Mauro, Stumpers - Višnjić, Niedoba, Fonseca, Melis, Mrhálek - Zubíček, Vašek.

Lost(r) tactics involved an interesting 3-5-2 combination. Lineup: Kuczborski - Gülru, Carreño, Pedroni - Rykr, Kolegar, Abbiati, Fagot, Svold - Čuhel, Goyochea.

Lost(r) used their ability to concentrate their attacks in the middle of the pitch, rather than on the wings. D. Lozano looked great 6 minutes into the match after stopping a shot from the middle of the penalty area from the visitors' H. Goyochea. The terraces were silenced after 27 minutes when Lost(r)'s G. Abbiati put the guests ahead 0 - 1, following an attack on the right. With 37 minutes played, G. Abbiati nearly put the visitors another one up as he broke through in the middle and fired from just outside the box, but his shot passed just over the bar. Š. Zubíček made a superb strike after 41 minutes with a shot straight in front of the goal after a long ball through the middle, but one of the visitors' defenders got a foot in at the last second and warded it off for a corner. Baryboys's J. Niedoba had to watch the rest of the game from the sidelines, after twisting his ankle with 44 minutes having been played. J. Kmošek was the replacement. D. Lozano was the new captain of Baryboys - handed the armband by the departing player. Halftime score was 0 - 1. Possession in the forty-five minutes was dominated by Lost(r), with 56 percent of the ball.

After 48 minutes, D. Vašek made a dash down the middle past the away team's defenders to score the goal that made it 1 - 1. 68 minutes into the game, K. Gülru had a great chance to put his team ahead, but his kick from the left went wide. After several obvious shirt pulling incidents, J. Kmošek got himself booked. The manager of Baryboys was not happy. 73 minutes had elapsed when a great chance for Baryboys to take the lead after a good cross from the right found P. Melis alone with the keeper, but he chipped it to the wrong side of the post. The opposing supporters gave the referee an earful when he only gave D. Fonseca from Baryboys a yellow card after a mistimed challenge from behind 78 minutes into the game. That was far too lenient! The home crowd breathed a collective sigh of relief when J. Carreño was unable to put the ball in the net after his show of skill down the left 82 minutes into the match. He was seen beating the pitch in frustration at missing such a good chance to give his team the lead! D. Fonseca gave Baryboys 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 Having been awarded a free kick in an awkward position after 84 minutes, Lost(r) did not go for a shot but instead fired the ball hard into the 6 yard box. After a brief tussle with his marker, J. Rykr was able to power the ball past the keeper to make the score 2 - 2. Lost(r) claimed to have seen most of the ball, and the statistics agreed with them - possession being 54 percent.

Most important Baryboys player was Š. Zubíček. J. Kmošek was a disappointment, however. Lost(r)'s top performer was clearly G. Abbiati. J. Carreño turned in a dismal performance, however. The match ends 2 - 2.
