AP Labraga 3 - 0 F.C. (367624966)

The crowd of 8257 turning up at Coñazo Stadium today were greeted with some nasty showers of rain. Dvir Melamed was the appointed referee with assistance provided by Mürşit Özay and Maximilian Fuerndrath. AP Labraga decided to use a 3-5-2 set up. The following players had been chosen: Püss - Zekavet, Ehleiter, Vestergren - Domènech, Kanstrup, Tabakov, Wasyluk, Linde - Thijssen, Guanabara.

A 4-4-2 alignment was the formation of choice for F.C.. The following players took the field: Iturrate - Astruells, Ramírez, Gacete, García-Barberena - Ultzurrun, Manrique, Pellón, Haranburua - Zarwali, Núñez.

AP Labraga were mostly trying to use their skill at attacking on the flanks. Some things can only be learned through experience, and F. Manrique should take his lesson to heart after nearly gifting AP Labraga a goal with 18 minutes of the match played. G. Pellón was having a great game - if anything the pouring rain seemed to be spurring him on! The AP Labraga free kick 26 minutes into the match seemed wasted, as the shot was both short and off target. But was this actually a plan? The ball landed at the feet of M. Kanstrup, who was completely unmarked in the box. That's 1 - 0! Things were deteriorating for the away team as AP Labraga scored another to make it 2 - 0 after a left side attack resulted in a goal for M. Kanstrup after 37 minutes. AP Labraga managed to extend their lead to 3 - 0 when P. Guanabara cut in neatly from the left side and struck a fine shot past the away team's goalkeeper. With 39 minutes played, I. Núñez of F.C. fell dramatically just outside the penalty area. However, the referee was unimpressed, and booked him for diving. 3 - 0 was the halftime score. Possession in this half belonged to AP Labraga, who controlled the ball 65 percent of the time.

Ş. Sandu was called on to replace AP Labraga's M. Linde after 54 minutes following a nasty collision. AP Labraga were determined to attack on the wing and their central attempts were constantly abandoned in favour of the wings. It was a bad day for the usually speedy I. Núñez. The mud seemed to slow him down. Coming from the right, M. Kanstrup almost managed to score another goal for AP Labraga, but his header was tipped over the bar by the visitors' keeper. Possession in the forty-five minutes was dominated by AP Labraga, with 60 percent of the ball.

AP Labraga's best player was M. Kanstrup. On the other hand, Ş. Sandu's play was disheartening. Most important F.C. player was I. Haranburua. However, Ó. García-Barberena made a disastrous appearance. The match ends 3 - 0.
