Fatalidad 0 - 2 SPO (367500466)

A brilliantly sunny day had enticed a crowd of 20037 to Factoría Fatalidad. Florin Serban was the appointed referee with assistance provided by Franck Houillon and Ricardo Lataste. Fatalidad decided to use a 4-3-3 set up. They fielded: Elzinga - Radosavljević, Hellflod, Sanabria, Petautschnig - Isnard, Gatica, Galerne - Rosa, Has, Yousef.

SPO had chosen a strategic 5-4-1 formation. The following players took the field: Gamacho - Casarramona, Čizmin, Esquerra, Kosk, Majo - Dadunaschwili, Sabathier, Blæsild, Nuwawea - Falcón.

Fatalidad clearly had decided to counter-attack when they could. SPO tried to focus their attacks down the middle. L. Casarramona behaved like an inexperienced youth player after 8 minutes as he gave the ball away to J. Petautschnig. Lucky for him though, there was no goal. SPO's goal to make the score 0 - 1 came via a questionable penalty, but H. Dadunaschwili struck it home without a second thought. SPO had a good opportunity to attack on the wing, but remembered their instructions to go for middle attacks. 0 - 1 was the score after the first half. SPO had most of the ball, with 54 percent of possession.

Fatalidad needed a fresh pair of legs on the field, and after 70 minutes Q. Isnard made way for T. Rose. Fatalidad almost scored after a swift counterattack 78 minutes into the game, but S. Rosa put the shot from the left flank just outside the goal. The home keeper was stunned 79 minutes into the match when he misjudged the free kick by H. Dadunaschwili and dived in the wrong direction. The visitors increased the lead to 0 - 2. At this point, it was obvious that the players of SPO lowered the tempo and became more defensively oriented. Usually a powerful player on the field, İ. Has looked kind of pale and tired under the hot sun. After several obvious shirt pulling incidents, L. Casarramona got himself booked. The manager of SPO was not happy. After 86 minutes Fatalidad tried to exploit their counterattacking skills, unfortunately, İ. Has's shot sailed wide after his break down the right. The home side worked their way through the middle and almost got one back when S. Rosa tried to sneak the ball past the keeper. R. Gamacho was too alert for that! Possession in this half belonged to SPO, who controlled the ball 59 percent of the time.

İ. Has performed admirably for Fatalidad. However, I. Hellflod made a disastrous appearance. The most dominating SPO player was without a doubt E. Falcón. H. Dadunaschwili was a disappointment, however. The match ends 0 - 2.
