AVRIL 3 - 0 Baccanà (381740800)

Clouds darkened the skies at QUEEN'S STADIUM as 26000 spectators turned up for the match. Peter Thamayr was the appointed referee with assistance provided by Leopold Langer and Wolf Amberger. AVRIL decided to use a 3-5-2 set up. Lineup: Šutlák - Buss, Lindstaedt, Gisor - Nuarte, Riera, Pohja, Devecchi, Matarasso - Abadal, Oderda.

Baccanà had chosen a strategic 3-5-2 formation. Starters: Szurlej - Garau, Enveij, Florence - Bach, Siegfried, Trusiewicz, Salskov, Nisslius - Singer, Balzani.

Baccanà saw most attack opportunities on the wings. With 25 minutes played R. Abadal almost put the home team one ahead on a cross coming in from the right, but the shot went just wide. Halftime score was 0 - 0. AVRIL enjoyed most of the ball, as they maintained 56 percent of possession.

They were singing the praises of M. Devecchi 51 minutes into the match after his speculative chip from the middle of the penalty box found its way over the visitors' keeper to make the score 1 - 0 to AVRIL. N. Nisslius came close to levelling the score 70 minutes into the game, as he was set up with a through ball coming in from the left, but his shot hit the post. 74 minutes into the match, the visitors' central line of defence had to look on as R. Abadal broke through, making the score 2 - 0 for AVRIL. AVRIL increased the lead as F. Oderda struck to make the score 3 - 0 after an attack from the left left him unmarked in front of the keeper. D. Szurlej was caught napping as K. Pohja lifted a ball over him following a free kick, but the ball hit the bar, rebounding into the keeper's arms. AVRIL had most of the ball, with 56 percent of possession.

AVRIL's top performer was clearly F. Riera. F. Šutlák turned in a dismal performance, however. Baccanà's best player was W. Siegfried. D. Szurlej on the other hand, had a terrible day. The match ends 3 - 0.
