previous 8/10 next 10/10  Cotillo 2 - 0 Galletonas (382969670)

Clouds darkened the skies at Estadio Municipal Pepe la Cabra as 20730 spectators turned up for the match. Moritz Weinbeer was the appointed referee with assistance provided by Antonio Usai and János Lovász. A 5-3-2 alignment was the formation of choice for Cotillo. The following players took the field: Lazaga - Dreve, Schellberg, Silva Palmira, Flood, Le Cam - Mazzucato, Libich, Zetber - Csongor, Elras.

Galletonas had chosen a strategic 5-5-0 formation. They fielded: 項軼 (Xiangyi) - Feijoo, Henríquez, Saracina, Şerban, Oz - Figuera, González Carvajal, Codina, Casals, Piquer -.

For their match strategy, Galletonas had decided to use their ability to counter-attack whenever possible. With the clock showing 15 minutes played, a great pass from the defensive line of Galletonas resulted in a counterattack that was smoothly brought under control by E. Feijoo in the centre of the opposition's penalty area, but his finish went high. Making his way up the middle 18 minutes into the match, Ş. Dreve almost managed to squeeze a goal past the visitors' keeper, but the alert 張. 項軼 (Xiangyi) blocked it to keep the score level. A. Le Cam received some harsh words from his coach after he acted foolishly 26 minutes into the match, probably out of lack of experience, and almost let an opponent score. F. Csongor caused the crowd to go mental with his goal up the middle after 28 minutes. This gave Cotillo the 1 - 0 lead. After 32 minutes, following yet another great corner, E. Feijoo's flick on at the near post reached S. Saracina, who was just wide with his snapshot - the ball went out for a goal kick. A counterattack by Galletonas after 35 minutes could have resulted in a goal, but D. Casals, coming in on the left, couldn't get the shot off. The teams went for the halftime break at 1 - 0. Cotillo enjoyed most of the ball, as they maintained 71 percent of possession.

After 60 minutes, a couple of quick and successful challenges followed by a shot from just outside the penalty area by F. Csongor might have resulted in another goal for Cotillo. However, 張. 項軼 (Xiangyi) made a spectacular save. After 62 minutes, G. Mazzucato put Cotillo ahead 2 - 0 when he rose to head in a cross from the right wing. Cotillo's F. Zetber saw his fine effort strike the top of the bar following some good work up the middle by his teammates after 63 minutes. Cotillo's D. Silva Palmira's long shot really ought to have found the net 68 minutes into the match, but it fell just wide of the target. Cotillo's W. Flood got himself booked for a foul. Galletonas's G. Henríquez went down after a savage challenge, but could continue playing after some medical attention. F. Csongor left the field with a smile on his face as he was substituted 85 minutes into the game, as his team was in the lead. H. Ulubey was the replacement. Possession in this half belonged to Cotillo, who controlled the ball 76 percent of the time.

The most dominating Cotillo player was without a doubt M. Libich. H. Ulubey turned in a dismal performance, however. S. Saracina performed admirably for Galletonas. On the other hand, A. Figuera's play was disheartening. The match ends 2 - 0.
