Hassels 3 - 2 Jelkovec (379603973)

A scorching day at Asselkeller, where 3640 spectators were in place for today's match. Nils Franken-Vogts was the appointed referee with assistance provided by Dario Russett and Falke Justesen. Hassels decided to use a 5-3-2 set up. They fielded: Schäftlein - Ciuró, Wiedebach, Reyna, Desiato, Renskär - Lubig-Schlosser, Bailly, Grivakis - Leimser, Wall.

Jelkovec started off with a 4-5-1 lineup. Lineup: Markić - Heinas, Lips, Brügmann, Cavalli - Valerija, Rosegger, Mlikota, Verkroost, Cota - Strugar.

10 minutes into the match, the referee signalled for a Hassels substitution. F. Bindokaitis came on for R. Schäftlein. With 20 minutes played, G. Desiato of Hassels fell dramatically just outside the penalty area. However, the referee was unimpressed, and booked him for diving. Halftime score was 0 - 0. Jelkovec had most of the ball, with 63 percent of possession.

It was a hot and sunny day, and several players seemed worn out. Maybe this was why O. Wall found an unusual amount of space for his snappy footwork. Jelkovec enjoyed most of the ball, as they maintained 63 percent of possession.

With the scores being level after 90 minutes, the match went into extra time. G. Cavalli of Jelkovec received a yellow card after 102 minutes for unsportsmanlike behaviour. Still tied after extra time, the crowd was buzzing as the teams prepared for a penalty shoot-out to determine the winner.

When it comes to placing a ball precisely, J. Reyna is a real wizard. He put it safely away for Hassels to make the score 1 - 0. Jelkovec's G. Cavalli coolly put the ball past F. Bindokaitis. 1 - 1. Oh, the sweet feet of technical O. Wall... His left one gave Hassels a lovely goal. 2 - 1. Jelkovec's B. Verkroost showed he has nerves of steel when it comes to penalties, easily changing the score to 2 - 2. Hassels's L. Bailly made no mistake. E. Markić didn't have a chance. 3 - 2. Oooh - how unlucky! Jelkovec's A. Strugar attempt hit the underside of the bar, but rebounded down into the grateful arms of F. Bindokaitis. The score stays 3 - 2. Hassels's S. Leimser looked like he knew exactly where he wanted to put the ball, but unfortunately his shot went wide of the left hand post. Still 3 - 2. Jelkovec's E. Markić looked nervous even as he was putting the ball on the spot. He didn't take much of a run up, and his weak shot was easily saved by the keeper. Hassels's F. Bindokaitis didn't look like he was confident as he stepped up, and produced a badly struck penalty - right into the arms of E. Markić. The score remained 3 - 2. Clearly nervous from the start, Jelkovec's Z. Lips took a long run up, but could only blast the ball over the bar. The score remains 3 - 2. Most important Hassels player was O. Wall. However, S. Leimser made a disastrous appearance. The most dominating Jelkovec player was without a doubt B. Rosegger. E. Markić was a disappointment, however. The match ends 3 - 2.
