Katximba 4 - 3 Mocejon (382887118)

The 53629 spectators at Katximbódromo were in for an afternoon of sunshine. Luis Tibabuyes was the appointed referee with assistance provided by Jalmar Olumets and Nemo van der Linden. Katximba had chosen a strategic 4-5-1 formation. The following players took the field: Portugal - Matvienko, Pintado, Fabián, Takács - Górowski, Chanteiro, Weiher, Cervera, Verachtert - Gubert.

Mocejon decided to use a 3-5-2 set up. They fielded: Ur - Balling, Mascaró, Hjortmo - Oruç, Portilla, Horz, Esteves, Salinas - Cassel, Jagenreuter.

Mocejon saw most attack opportunities on the wings. Mocejon's counterattacks were lethal to the opposing defence, allowing K. Hjortmo to score easily from the right flank for 0 - 1. A lunatic dribble by C. Chanteiro, in front of his own keeper, set up Mocejon's H. Jagenreuter for an embarrassingly easy strike after 32 minutes. 0 - 2! Mocejon's M. Balling was shown a yellow card for standing over the ball and blocking an opponent's quick free kick after 36 minutes. Katximba's C. Chanteiro cut towards the middle after 37 minutes, receiving a brilliant pass and slicing through the visiting team's central defence, reducing the lead to 1 - 2. It was 1 - 2 at the break. Possession in the forty-five minutes was dominated by Katximba, with 53 percent of the ball.

Katximba needed a fresh pair of legs on the field, and after 46 minutes A. Pintado made way for M. Sánchez García. 58 minutes in, and Katximba were able to score the equalising goal to make it 2 - 2 when G. Matvienko picked up a pass coming in from the right and chipped it past the away team's keeper. M. Salinas really should have scored when he was chosen by fate to confront a wide open goal following a great play by T. Oruç after a corner. Katximba took the lead 71 minutes into the game by 3 - 2, as H. Gubert elegantly received a long range pass through the middle, finishing off with a half-volley shot just below the bar. Mocejon's M. Salinas seemed to stun everyone on the field with an accurate shot that seemed to come from nowhere. Somehow, the keeper managed to keep his cool and made a fantastic save. After 80 minutes, D. Weiher put Katximba ahead 4 - 2 when he rose to head in a cross from the right wing. H. Gubert left the field with a smile on his face as he was substituted 80 minutes into the game, as his team was in the lead. M. Vasco was the replacement. An accurate cross from T. Oruç of Mocejon was met with a wonderful glancing header from H. Jagenreuter, hitting the inside base of the post before nestling into the back of the net for 4 - 3. M. Sánchez García could have put Katximba up one more, but he fired into the side netting after breaking free on the left after 82 minutes. Katximba enjoyed most of the ball, as they maintained 55 percent of possession.

D. Portugal performed admirably for Katximba. However, M. Vasco made a disastrous appearance. Mocejon's best player was S. Cassel. K. Horz was a disappointment, however. The match ends 4 - 3.
