Stagnese 8 - 0 siberia (379329717)

Overcast weather free of rain made for a crowd turnout of 1234 at Arena Carratica today. Williams Tyler was the appointed referee with assistance provided by Arjan Demas and Thomas Nutley. Stagnese had chosen a strategic 3-5-2 formation. The following players took the field: Giardinà - Norcini, Castegnero, Sapone - Uccheddu, Fruzza, Moscariello, Gabbiadini, Polo - Anelli, Artuso.

siberia decided to use a 2-5-1 set up. They fielded: Laganà - Ciuffreda, Götz-Hollweger - Horváth, Venturin, Pirrello, Morettini, Guart - Liguori.

It was an obvious ambition of siberia to use their ability at attacking on the flanks. N. Gabbiadini was ever so close to scoring after an excellent corner was beautifully flicked on by G. Anelli, but the ball bounced off the post to safety. S. Castegnero caused the crowd to go mental with his goal up the middle after 9 minutes. This gave Stagnese the 1 - 0 lead. After 11 minutes, Stagnese raised their score by one when M. Uccheddu's dangerous low cross was cleverly tucked in at the near post by R. Polo. 2 - 0. 12 minutes into the match, the visitors' central line of defence had to look on as C. Artuso broke through, making the score 3 - 0 for Stagnese. Stagnese's G. Anelli was shown a yellow card after 32 minutes for slicing down an opponent. siberia's C. Götz-Hollweger went down after a savage challenge, but could continue playing after some medical attention. E. Fruzza unleashed a swerving effort from the right that the visitors' keeper did well to tip wide. After 37 minutes, siberia's E. Morettini fell awkwardly, but was determined to stay in the match. That's the spirit! After 37 minutes, there was a bit of a mixup on the field as siberia found themselves out of position and their organisation level dropped to poor. A speedy charge from the left side of the field increased the lead of Stagnese to 4 - 0 as N. Gabbiadini finished it off competently, firing in from an acute angle. S. Castegnero of Stagnese was booked for kicking the ball away after the whistle. It was 4 - 0 at the break. Stagnese claimed to have seen most of the ball, and the statistics agreed with them - possession being 66 percent.

Despite his frustration resulting in the smashing of a few teacups, the coach of siberia was able to get his message across, and raised siberia's organisation to passable. The coach of Stagnese was happy with the game so far, but still wanted to change the line up. After 46 minutes, B. Piazza came on for N. Gabbiadini. With 48 minutes played, Stagnese put themselves up 5 - 0 when the visiting defenders lost the ball to S. Castegnero, who came up from the left and proceeded to coolly round the keeper and knock the ball home. After this, you could see that the players of Stagnese were more interested in killing time than scoring more goals. Stagnese increased the lead as R. Polo struck to make the score 6 - 0 after an attack from the left left him unmarked in front of the keeper. 74 minutes into the game, siberia seemed to suffer a certain amount of confusion and they fell to a inadequate level of organisation. Things were deteriorating for the away team as Stagnese scored another to make it 7 - 0 after a left side attack resulted in a goal for E. Moscariello after 79 minutes. 81 minutes in, siberia's M. Pirrello received a yellow card for going into a challenge studs first. Stagnese's G. Anelli increased the lead to 8 - 0, after he saw his shot go between the legs of the advancing goalkeeper following some good play down the right wing after 86 minutes. Stagnese enjoyed most of the ball, as they maintained 68 percent of possession.

Most important Stagnese player was C. Artuso. M. Uccheddu was a disappointment, however. The most dominating siberia player was without a doubt D. Guart. However, S. Laganà made a disastrous appearance. The match ends 8 - 0.
