TIGERWOODS 0 - 1 Victor (381785542)

The 21892 fans in attendance at AUGUSTA MASTER were roasting in the hot sun. Josef Zotter was the appointed referee with assistance provided by Sven Frühstück and Loïk Grosperrin. TIGERWOODS had chosen a strategic 3-5-2 formation. The following players had been chosen: Popa - Mapelli, Rasmussen, Cena - Pinhel, Gitti, Rodella, Raugei, Porto - Tsalavoutas, Buson.

Victor decided to use a 4-4-2 set up. They fielded: Russell - Sarkisiani, Strölin, Viviani, Virgil - Kácsor, Velkov, Cailleaud, Piras - Heje, Sironiambu.

Some good play on the left wing created an opportunity for the visitors 29 minutes into the match, and S. Piras wasn't about to let it go by. He got past the defenders and fired a shot that the keeper just missed. 0 - 1 for the visitors. The referee showed TIGERWOODS's A. Porto the yellow card after a particularly nasty challenge. Halftime score was 0 - 1. Possession in this half belonged to TIGERWOODS, who controlled the ball 64 percent of the time.

V. Rodella's technique was perfect on this sunny day and led to some breathtaking tricks that bamboozled the defence. After 57 minutes TIGERWOODS's J. Rasmussen limped slightly after a late challenge, but he was able to continue. After 71 minutes a very unfortunate collision in the penalty area led to Victor's W. Strölin being carried off the pitch and replaced by O. Farkas. As usual, G. Buson tried to use his strength and hard work for the benefit of the team, but the heat hit him hard and he couldn't keep pace at all. Some fine passing in the middle of the pitch, carving open the away defence, should have led to a goal for TIGERWOODS, but G. Gitti's shot went over the bar. No matter how hard he tried, P. Tsalavoutas just couldn't get his shot past the visitors' right side defence after 75 minutes. Possession in the forty-five minutes was dominated by TIGERWOODS, with 66 percent of the ball.

TIGERWOODS's best player was P. Tsalavoutas. On the other hand, G. Mapelli's play was disheartening. The most dominating Victor player was without a doubt S. Heje. Z. Sarkisiani turned in a dismal performance, however. The match ends 0 - 1.
