18852 punters turned up at
Sala de Cata, and despite threatening clouds on the horizon, no rain came.
Giacomo Frasso was the appointed referee with assistance provided by
Niccolo Kellenberger and
Thomas Ecklind.
The derby had been the talk of
Barcelona all week and fans of both teams could be seen throughout the stadium.
Enòleg decided to use a 3-4-3 set up.
They fielded: Ortueta - Miceli, Patronov, Kip - Leriche, Syrett, Pla, Paup - Pais, Pérez de Ayala, Angelkov.
A 3-5-2 alignment was the formation of choice for Voladora.
Lineup: Arnal - Briniss, Pijala, Vito - Kaiser, Armellini, Idan, Simón Abril, Sierra - Mazo Martínez, Robichon.
10 minutes into the match, Voladora nearly took the lead, as
L. Pijala broke through on the right.
A. Ortueta made the save, however.
Enòleg's
P. Kip was shown a yellow card for standing over the ball and blocking an opponent's quick free kick after 23 minutes.
29 minutes into the game,
F. Kaiser was a hair's breadth away from giving Voladora the lead with a shot from over on the left. A prompt block by
A. Ortueta saved the home team that time.
Voladora took the lead 34 minutes into the game, making the score 0 - 1 after some elegant movement down the middle.
L. Robichon was the scorer.
0 - 1 was the score after the first half.
Possession in the forty-five minutes was dominated by Voladora, with 66 percent of the ball.
A defender managed to keep the ball from crossing the goal-line after a curling shot coming in from the right from
C. Mazo Martínez after 57 minutes, and prevented Voladora from going up another goal.
65 minutes into the match, the visitors put themselves ahead 0 - 2 as
F. Briniss finished off an attack from the left with a spectacular scissors kick.
With 80 minutes played, the excellent ball from the wing by Enòleg's
E. Paup reached
A. Angelkov's head, and he is not one to miss such an opportunity - 1 - 2.
The crowd was on its feet 81 minutes into the match, as Enòleg's
G. Pla found himself unmarked in front of the goal after a dash up the left side. He calmly put away the 2 - 2 equaliser.
The opposing supporters gave the referee an earful when he only gave
J. Pais from Enòleg a yellow card after a mistimed challenge from behind 85 minutes into the game. That was far too lenient!
Voladora's
F. Arnal refused to leave the field after injuring his achilles tendon after 87 minutes.
Voladora had most of the ball, with 64 percent of possession.
J. Pérez de Ayala performed admirably for Enòleg.
J. Pais on the other hand, had a terrible day.
Voladora's best player was
R. Armellini.
F. Arnal was a disappointment, however.
The match ends 2 - 2.
