Craggy 3 - 0 Yin (380529674)

37538 spectators had come to Craggy Island over 7 Arena this cloudy day. Bernardo Aleixandre was the appointed referee with assistance provided by Hans Rosening and Gabriël de Waal. Craggy tactics involved an interesting 3-5-2 combination. Starters: Valenzuela - Lifstedt, Panazzolo, Barbagelata - Mehtä, Montfulleda, Thybo, Shabalov, Deliu - Pategay, 德维 (Dewei).

Yin had chosen a strategic 3-4-3 formation. The following players had been chosen: 少青 (Shaoqing) - Henckel, Stickelmann, Mirich - Talavera, 达海 (Dahai) , Augustyn, 清源 (Qingyuan) - Czyżkowski, Ulloa, Ezell.

Yin tried to focus their attacks down the middle. Craggy had a good opportunity to take the lead as P. Mehtä came up the left side, but he struck the ball weakly and it went straight into the arms of 曹. 少青 (Shaoqing). Slack defending gave Craggy a chance to take the lead with 31 minutes played, but J. Pategay's cross from the left flank was fumbled in front of the goal and easily dealt with by the opposition. Craggy's R. Deliu was shown a yellow card after 34 minutes for slicing down an opponent. Craggy took the lead 38 minutes into the game by 1 - 0, as D. Panazzolo elegantly received a long range pass through the middle, finishing off with a half-volley shot just below the bar. There was concern in the stands when, at the 39 minute mark, Yin's W. Ezell hit the ground hard, but he refused the attention of the trainer and rejoined his teammates on the pitch. The teams went for the halftime break at 1 - 0. Possession in this half belonged to Craggy, who controlled the ball 76 percent of the time.

J. Pategay should probably have put his team up another goal after 48 minutes, but some great goalkeeping by 曹. 少青 (Shaoqing) kept the visitors in the game. The home side's D. Panazzolo came close to extending the lead 72 minutes into the game. His shot came in from the right hand side but 曹. 少青 (Shaoqing) managed to save it with an unbelievable reaction stop. With 74 minutes played, the visitors almost levelled the score. T. Henckel shot a hard curved free kick, striking the post. The opposing supporters gave the referee an earful when he only gave M. Czyżkowski from Yin a yellow card after a mistimed challenge from behind 76 minutes into the game. That was far too lenient! 段. 德维 (Dewei) could have put Craggy up one more, but he fired into the side netting after breaking free on the left after 86 minutes. Cheers filled the stadium as O. Montfulleda broke through the visitors' central defence to put away the ball to increase the lead to 2 - 0 to Craggy. A well-executed free kick by P. Lifstedt after 87 minutes made it 3 - 0 for Craggy. Craggy enjoyed most of the ball, as they maintained 80 percent of possession.

Craggy's best player was A. Shabalov. R. Valenzuela on the other hand, had a terrible day. The most dominating Yin player was without a doubt M. Czyżkowski. On the other hand, 麦. 达海 (Dahai) 's play was disheartening. The match ends 3 - 0.
