Cuorispezzati 1 - 3 Dinamo (380286153)

17556 spectators had come to Castelli di cristallo this cloudy day. Ciro Satta was the appointed referee with assistance provided by Marcin Kopernik and Gabi Adam. Cuorispezzati tactics involved an interesting 3-4-3 combination. The following players took the field: Romualdi - Jurkka, Villette, Zaramella - Paredes, Ketterer, Degani, Agiato - Cavalieri, Melucci, Minerva.

Dinamo decided to use a 3-5-2 set up. They fielded: Colaci - Sax, Benavides, Calella - Björninen, Lamminaho, Bolcioni, Pavlović, Benelli - Cocea, Sav.

Counter-attacking seemed to be the preferred strategy of Cuorispezzati. With 10 minutes played, P. Cavalieri of Cuorispezzati fell dramatically just outside the penalty area. However, the referee was unimpressed, and booked him for diving. A mistake by the home side's central defence after 16 minutes allowed B. Pavlović to score for Dinamo. The scoreboard now read 0 - 1. Dinamo's S. Benavides made it through the home team's defence on the right hand side 23 minutes into the match. After rounding the keeper, he only had to place the ball in the unguarded goal when a defender slid in and cleared the ball off the line. 0 - 1 was the score after the first half. Dinamo had most of the ball, with 60 percent of possession.

The coach of Dinamo was happy with the game so far, but still wanted to change the line up. After 60 minutes, F. Barile came on for V. Cocea. P. Benelli left the field with a smile on his face as he was substituted 60 minutes into the game, as his team was in the lead. T. Chiarenza was the replacement. After the ball was lifted in from the left, B. Pavlović was on his own in the home side's penalty area and should have scored after 61 minutes, but missed, probably due to lack of concentration. After a fatal mistake from the away team's right side defence 71 minutes into the match, an alert P. Cavalieri bagged the ball for Cuorispezzati, levelling the score to 1 - 1. 74 minutes of the match played, and a comedy of errors by the home side gave the visitors a chance at the lead, but O. Sav, after finding himself dashing down on goal from the left with only the keeper to beat, sliced his shot horribly wide. After 75 minutes, the defensive line of Cuorispezzati created a counterattack through the middle that gave C. Zaramella a good look at the goal, but his shot glanced harmlessly off the crossbar. The referee showed Cuorispezzati's M. Agiato the yellow card after a particularly nasty challenge. The visiting B. Pavlović was booed thoroughly by the home crowd 77 minutes into the game, after he broke through the middle and scored, resulting in the visitors taking the lead. 1 - 2 was the score. C. Zaramella of Cuorispezzati received a yellow card after 78 minutes for unsportsmanlike behaviour. The visitors' B. Pavlović took advantage of a misunderstanding between the home side's goalie and centre backs 79 minutes into the match. 1 - 3 for Dinamo. That was his third goal of the match - a hat trick for B. Pavlović. Dinamo claimed to have seen most of the ball, and the statistics agreed with them - possession being 59 percent.

The most dominating Cuorispezzati player was without a doubt F. Melucci. M. Minerva turned in a dismal performance, however. Dinamo's best player was O. Sav. T. Chiarenza on the other hand, had a terrible day. The match ends 1 - 3.
