Dinamo 1 - 0 Libertini (366102215)

The 43561 fans in attendance at Meiua Stadium were roasting in the hot sun. Long Odonnell was the appointed referee with assistance provided by Demetrio Gaytán and Jeppe Kure Vidkjær. A 3-5-2 alignment was the formation of choice for Dinamo. Lineup: Antonacci - Argentoni, 永权 (Yongquan), Cruciani - Tałanda, Bin-Hussain, De Landtsheer, Kulick, Piroddi - Suances, Desson.

Libertini decided to use a 5-3-2 set up. The following players took the field: Schiariti - Eylon, Pannula, Kleinpenning, Granyena, Torstensen - Medin, Mantena, Gugerli - Nuñez, Katzhuber.

It seemed as though Dinamo considered the game won before even taking the field, which resulted in a very uninspired start to the game. Using their counter-attacking abilities was the strategy of choice for Libertini. After 12 minutes of play, A. Suances gave the home team a 1 - 0 lead after an attack coming in from the right. The visitors almost came back with an equaliser 21 minutes into the match after a good combination down the middle, but when F. Gugerli tried to finish the attack, he couldn't deliver the shot hard enough to seriously challenge the keeper. L. Katzhuber came close to levelling the score 25 minutes into the game, as he was set up with a through ball coming in from the left, but his shot hit the post. 26 minutes into the game, Libertini seemed to suffer a certain amount of confusion and they fell to a solid level of organisation. 32 minutes in, Libertini's Y. Medin received a yellow card for going into a challenge studs first. The sun seemed to put F. Gugerli in a great mood, and he showed off his technical skills all match long. Halftime score was 1 - 0. Possession in this half belonged to Dinamo, who controlled the ball 66 percent of the time.

As the match resumes, Dinamo seemed to be a little less carefree than during the first half. They realised this would be necessary if they wanted to defend their fragile lead. The Libertini players spent the break getting a rerun of the team's tactical organisation and regained a solid organisation when the game started again. Content with how the game was proceeding, the Dinamo coach let C. Gökbulut replace E. Kulick after 50 minutes. B. De Landtsheer unleashed a swerving effort from the right that the visitors' keeper did well to tip wide. A counterattack by Libertini after 68 minutes could have resulted in a goal, but A. Nuñez, coming in on the left, couldn't get the shot off. As the game started to slip away for Libertini, the manager decided to change the tactical approach. As usual, J. Desson tried to use his strength and hard work for the benefit of the team, but the heat hit him hard and he couldn't keep pace at all. B. De Landtsheer almost put Dinamo ahead another goal when he curled a free kick over the defensive wall and almost into the net, but the visitors' keeper got there just in time to knock it wide. After 84 minutes Libertini's D. Schiariti contracted a slight foot injury, but didn't want to leave the game. The intense heat forced M. Bin-Hussain into making some errors because he couldn't seem to keep up with the others. Having turned the direction of play quickly, the Libertini counter attack ended as the ball carrier was brought down violently by a defender after 89 minutes. The resulting free kick was a flat shot into the area just in front of the keeper. However, the defence were on their toes and did not allow the opponents to reach the ball. Possession in the forty-five minutes was dominated by Dinamo, with 66 percent of the ball.

Dinamo's best player was C. Antonacci. A. Tałanda turned in a dismal performance, however. Libertini's top performer was clearly L. Katzhuber. On the other hand, D. Schiariti's play was disheartening. The match ends 1 - 0.
