RedHearts 2 - 0 Mistros (378818504)

1296 spectators had come to the cinder of Gornonanadolnishte this cloudy day. Belmiro Thompson was the appointed referee with assistance provided by Sebastian Potor and Kim Birkemose. RedHearts had chosen a strategic 5-4-1 formation. The following players had been chosen: Giaretta - Woodland, Staunig, Ufer, Fuentes, Tzanov - Bain, Low, Payne, Young - Horgan.

Mistros started off with a 3-5-2 lineup. The following players took the field: Churchill - Verdesoto, Randall, Haraga - Ekstrøm, Rouffaer, De Santis, Vinuesa, Craeghs - Juhász, Doty.

RedHearts focused on getting players in position for long range shots. 17 minutes into the match RedHearts's S. Bain head butted an opponent nastily, and so the referee sent him off immediately. With 19 minutes played, RedHearts's well-worked indirect free kick caused havoc in the penalty area, and when the ball eventually fell to G. Payne he gleefully slotted the ball home to make it 1 - 0. The teams went for the halftime break at 1 - 0. RedHearts enjoyed most of the ball, as they maintained 54 percent of possession.

M. Vinuesa behaved like an inexperienced youth player after 78 minutes as he gave the ball away to G. Payne. Lucky for him though, there was no goal. S. Ufer hit the corner kick straight to the keeper, but it was mishandled, giving RedHearts's G. Payne an easy chance to knock it in for 2 - 0. After several obvious shirt pulling incidents, G. Payne got himself booked. The manager of RedHearts was not happy. RedHearts's J. Low was shown a yellow card after 89 minutes for slicing down an opponent. Possession in this half belonged to Mistros, who controlled the ball 52 percent of the time.

E. Giaretta performed admirably for RedHearts. S. Ufer was a disappointment, however. The most dominating Mistros player was without a doubt O. Churchill. G. Juhász turned in a dismal performance, however. The match ends 2 - 0.
