Terze 1 - 2 Pidiemme (380074894)

Dark skies made the crowd of 234 at R&T a little nervous, but the rain held off. Alexandre Maquin was the appointed referee with assistance provided by Marciano García Lopez and Roberto Hoz. Terze decided to use a 3-4-3 set up. Lineup: Cerullo - Urbano, Caudoux, Martino - Hasllani, van Eeden, Mcneil, Gübel - Comandini, Allanic, Dias.

A 2-5-3 alignment was the formation of choice for Pidiemme. The following players took the field: van Gijzel - Helnes, Ballester Cardell - Di Pietro, Andenna, Casanova, Guerradell, Maniero - Şahin, Caviglia, Lukoschus-Schultz.

Terze were very close to putting themselves one up after 3 minutes as G. Comandini got through on the left, but failing in concentration, he shot the ball wide. 14 minutes in, Terze appeared unsure on how to play and their organisation was only inadequate. 15 minutes into the game, D. Caviglia had a great chance to put his team ahead, but his kick from the left went wide. The opposing supporters gave the referee an earful when he only gave E. Mcneil from Terze a yellow card after a mistimed challenge from behind 18 minutes into the game. That was far too lenient! Terze broke through on the left 36 minutes into the game, with F. van Eeden firing in from an acute angle to give the home side a 1 - 0 lead. P. Maniero finished off a quick charge from the left of the field by chipping the ball just past the home side's keeper, making the score 1 - 1 38 minutes into the match. 39 minutes into the game, Pidiemme seemed to suffer a certain amount of confusion and they fell to a passable level of organisation. Some good play on the left wing created an opportunity for the visitors 41 minutes into the match, and P. Maniero wasn't about to let it go by. He got past the defenders and fired a shot that the keeper just missed. 1 - 2 for the visitors. Halftime score was 1 - 2. Possession in this half belonged to Pidiemme, who controlled the ball 52 percent of the time.

The Terze players spent the break getting a rerun of the team's tactical organisation and regained a solid organisation when the game started again. The coach gave his players an extra tactical briefing during the break, and after that Pidiemme had solid organisation. G. Guerradell of Pidiemme was booked for kicking the ball away after the whistle. After 65 minutes, there was a bit of a mixup on the field as Pidiemme found themselves out of position and their organisation level dropped to inadequate. 67 minutes into the game, Terze had difficulty finding their positions and their organisation dropped to passable. After 72 minutes, F. van Eeden got through on the right and was very close to equalising for the home side, but didn't get the shot away. With 84 minutes played, after a good run down the left, G. Urbano went down looking for a penalty after a challenge from the visitors' right fullback, but the referee waved play on, and later warned him for diving. Terze's R. Allanic made an attempt at equalising 85 minutes into the match, coming in from the right, but the ball hit the post and the defence easily cleared the rebound. T. Cerullo got a fingertip on D. Caviglia's shot from the left 86 minutes in, and managed to keep the visitors from going up another goal. Terze enjoyed most of the ball, as they maintained 51 percent of possession.

Terze's top performer was clearly R. Allanic. E. Mcneil was a disappointment, however. Pidiemme's best player was Ö. Şahin. On the other hand, P. Andenna's play was disheartening. The match ends 1 - 2.
