Nangel 4 - 0 Norrbaggarna (372678701)

The crowd of 9286 turning up at Nagelsvampen today were greeted with some nasty showers of rain. Daniel Posiadała was the appointed referee with assistance provided by Maximilien Daval and Preben Hvalsøe Schou. Nangel had chosen a strategic 2-5-3 formation. The following players took the field: Palagi - Nocciolati, Brunaud - Erdağ, Vermylen, Fenu, Gripenén, Mottin - Morys, Maropoulos, Scheiblauer.

Norrbaggarna started off with a 4-4-2 lineup. Starters: Oskarsson - Paulsson, Gerdman, Randjelović, Ericsson - Johansson, Lövby, Irer, Ivarsson - Grenstål, Landsten.

Nangel seemed to prefer attacking in the middle. C. Morys was very close to giving Nangel the lead with an ingenious free kick routine 20 minutes into the match, but the ball just grazed the bar. Nangel's Z. Erdağ was shown a yellow card for standing over the ball and blocking an opponent's quick free kick after 22 minutes. L. Scheiblauer gave Nangel the lead as he successfully challenged the guests' central defenders, then slotted the ball into the bottom corner, giving the keeper no chance. 1 - 0 M. Paulsson had a hard time on the waterlogged pitch - his trademark technique was nowhere in sight today. Thighs bulging, J. Gripenén charged past the weaker players, seemingly oblivious to the rain. 39 minutes into the match C. Morys put Nangel ahead 2 - 0 with a truly marvelous free kick. After 42 minutes, Nangel raised their score by one when K. Mottin's dangerous low cross was cleverly tucked in at the near post by L. Scheiblauer. 3 - 0. After this, you could see that the players of Nangel were more interested in killing time than scoring more goals. 44 minutes into the match, C. Morys could have extended the lead, but his powerful free kick went just over the bar. Halftime score was 3 - 0. Nangel had most of the ball, with 74 percent of possession.

L. Scheiblauer unleashed a swerving effort from the right that the visitors' keeper did well to tip wide. N. Maropoulos could have increased the lead after 52 minutes, but his shot hit the post after a nice combination in the middle of the park. Norrbaggarna's A. Irer was shown a yellow card after 73 minutes for slicing down an opponent. It was a bad day for the usually speedy J. Ericsson. The mud seemed to slow him down. Z. Erdağ had a fantastic opportunity to put Nangel up another goal 80 minutes into the match, but he fired just over the crossbar. Things were deteriorating for the away team as Nangel scored another to make it 4 - 0 after a left side attack resulted in a goal for C. Morys after 81 minutes. Possession in the forty-five minutes was dominated by Nangel, with 77 percent of the ball.

The most dominating Nangel player was without a doubt J. Gripenén. On the other hand, T. Brunaud's play was disheartening. Norrbaggarna's top performer was clearly J. Grenstål. M. Oskarsson was a disappointment, however. The match ends 4 - 0.
