Comarca 2 - 6 Meister (375615902)

Due to an all-day shower, 35528 paying spectators got to see a match on a pitch-turned-bog at Hell Pass Hospital. Jérôme Hermant was the appointed referee with assistance provided by Eigil Abelsen and Finn Janosch Boddien. Comarca decided to use a 3-4-3 set up. The following players had been chosen: Bittencourt - Stensland, Batur, Unzueta - Cozzi, Pantoja, Pimenta, Torrijo - Radas, Antúnez, Bogdán.

Meister started off with a 3-5-2 lineup. The following players took the field: Vidić - Löffelmann, Rashid, Bisgaard Jensen - Bochien, Mascayo, Borghi, Arroyo, Pacheco Marques - Albitre, Christe.

Comarca tried to focus their attacks down the middle. The wings were the focus of most of Meister's attacks today. N. Pimenta was struggling to make the ball dance with his usual trickery and panache, and the opposing players had little trouble shutting him down in these muddy conditions. Meister's N. Christe could have put the guests one up after 22 minutes after chasing a through ball from the right, but G. Bittencourt was as fast as a snake, grabbing the ball from under his nose. 27 minutes into the game, a swerving free kick by M. Batur almost resulted in the home team taking the lead, but the shot glanced harmlessly off the frame of the goal. After 28 minutes, Meister put themselves up 0 - 1, as D. Borghi finished off a strike from the left with a real cannonball of a shot. After 29 minutes, S. Radas made a dash down the middle past the away team's defenders to score the goal that made it 1 - 1. Almost all the way down to the corner flag, Meister's K. Bochien somehow managed to get a perfect pass into the middle, impossible to miss for N. Christe, who struck for 1 - 2. Comarca's S. Radas put his head to a well placed ball, lifted in from the left, and scored to make the score 2 - 2 with 37 minutes showing on the scoreboard clock. It was 2 - 2 at the break. Meister claimed to have seen most of the ball, and the statistics agreed with them - possession being 57 percent.

Some quick footwork on the left side of the field 81 minutes into the match left Meister's N. Christe completely free to score. 2 - 3 for the visitors. The coach of Meister was happy with the game so far, but still wanted to change the line up. After 81 minutes, V. Grbić came on for A. Pacheco Marques. The Meister players could smell victory in the air. G. Rashid wasn't in a hurry to leave the field as he was substituted for R. Degli Esposti after 82 minutes. D. Arroyo wanted to play on, but the Meister coach had other ideas, and he was replaced 82 minutes into the game by D. Cisternas. Attacking on the wings was the choice for Meister, and they were successfully passing the ball from the middle to the wings to attack. The home crowd was not impressed when V. Grbić came in from the right, shooting hard to score after 87 minutes. Meister were now up 2 - 4. It was obvious that Meister had instructions to attack on the wings instead of in the middle. C. Bisgaard Jensen of Meister took advantage of a mistake on the home side's right after 88 minutes which increased the away team's lead to 2 - 5. After this, you could see that the players of Meister were more interested in killing time than scoring more goals. The visitors' D. Cisternas took advantage of a misunderstanding between the home side's goalie and centre backs 89 minutes into the match. 2 - 6 for Meister. Possession in this half belonged to Meister, who controlled the ball 63 percent of the time.

The most dominating Comarca player was without a doubt C. Antúnez. On the other hand, J. Torrijo's play was disheartening. Meister's top performer was clearly A. Albitre. R. Degli Esposti turned in a dismal performance, however. The match ends 2 - 6.
