Jbtim 0 - 0 Barca (381702682)

48843 spectators had come to J&B Arena this cloudy day. Nikolay Kulikov was the appointed referee with assistance provided by Joachim Tufte and Heini Pörsel. A 3-5-2 alignment was the formation of choice for Jbtim. The following players had been chosen: Trajanov - Melovski, Biancon, Damcevski - Gjyshi, Mangematin, Segura, Aztekin, Chashlarov - Varta, Schober.

Barca tactics involved an interesting 3-5-2 combination. Starters: Kamnikar - Vllasi, Loftsson, Martinoski - Stojmenovski, Dzartevski, Igov, Dzikov, Dzaurov - Ayçetin, Platts.

16 minutes into the game, S. Ayçetin had a great chance to put his team ahead, but his kick from the left went wide. After several obvious shirt pulling incidents, D. Biancon got himself booked. The manager of Jbtim was not happy. This was a good period for the visitors, with several opportunities to take the lead, particularly when S. Ayçetin slipped through the defence on the right to come up alone against A. Trajanov, but the home side's keeper showed his lightning reflexes. 0 - 0 was the score after the first half. Barca had most of the ball, with 51 percent of possession.

The coach of Jbtim wanted to try to change things around after 59 minutes, and gave new tactical instructions. Possession was split evenly between the teams.

Jbtim's top performer was clearly M. Varta. K. Chashlarov on the other hand, had a terrible day. D. Dzartevski performed admirably for Barca. Z. Stojmenovski was a disappointment, however. The match ends 0 - 0.
