Estoperenc 4 - 0 Legazpi (382888356)

Dark skies made the crowd of 50609 at Coliseu Pipau a little nervous, but the rain held off. Isaac Abdala was the appointed referee with assistance provided by Clement Wilson and Lev Jordan. Estoperenc had chosen a strategic 3-5-2 formation. They fielded: Ramos - Mhina, Dyrlund, Pilievi - Bere, De la Mota, Karantonis, Ştefan, Puig - Bertomeu, Castro-Girona.

A 4-4-2 alignment was the formation of choice for Legazpi. Lineup: Polfliet - Cano, Comaleras, Badorrey, Beloki - Borreguero, Prado, Santfeliu, Cividáns - Falch, Saguill.

Counter-attacking seemed to be the preferred strategy of Legazpi. Good work by the Legazpi defensive line after 3 minutes produced a good counterattack chance, which cut elegantly down the middle of the pitch and found X. Santfeliu alone in front of the goal, but his shot whistled just wide. After 30 minutes, A. Bere came in from the right, feinted, then sped past the off-balance defender to make the score 1 - 0, giving Estoperenc the lead. After 33 minutes, a couple of quick and successful challenges followed by a shot from just outside the penalty area by A. Bere might have resulted in another goal for Estoperenc. However, G. Polfliet made a spectacular save. Estoperenc's B. Ştefan increased the lead to 2 - 0, after he saw his shot go between the legs of the advancing goalkeeper following some good play down the right wing after 36 minutes. Legazpi almost scored after a swift counterattack 38 minutes into the game, but X. Santfeliu put the shot from the left flank just outside the goal. Halftime score was 2 - 0. Possession in the forty-five minutes was dominated by Estoperenc, with 61 percent of the ball.

G. Puig increased the lead for Estoperenc to 3 - 0, getting a head onto a hooked ball from the right. The ball looked to have taken a deflection on the way in, but he's claiming it! A speedy charge from the left side of the field increased the lead of Estoperenc to 4 - 0 as M. Bertomeu finished it off competently, firing in from an acute angle. With 62 minutes played, Estoperenc's F. Castro-Girona almost extended the lead, but his shot from the left glanced off the top of the bar to fall behind the net. The visitors got a chance to pulling one back after 73 minutes, due to a defensive blunder leaving U. Saguill completely unmarked. His strike was pathetic though, easy prey for the home side's keeper. Possession in this half belonged to Estoperenc, who controlled the ball 62 percent of the time.

Most important Estoperenc player was F. Castro-Girona. P. Dyrlund turned in a dismal performance, however. The most dominating Legazpi player was without a doubt T. Falch. G. Polfliet on the other hand, had a terrible day. The match ends 4 - 0.
