Tiki-taka 0 - 2 Led_Zeppelin (383109357)

Overcast weather free of rain made for a crowd turnout of 11006 at Estadi Olímpic today. Hubert Jaspers was the appointed referee with assistance provided by Ludgerus Stichweg and Jean-Luc Köhler. Tiki-taka decided to use a 3-5-2 set up. They fielded: Nance - Käri, Veres, Demaison - Amberg, Mežidovas, Musall, Palowski, Kościesza - Ringinen, Aalders.

Led_Zeppelin had chosen a strategic 4-4-2 formation. The following players had been chosen: Buzaglo - Mogge, Kiełbik, Boruch, Ghelfi - Yurre, Martel, Camacho, Drenthen - Pimenta, Eberl.

Tiki-taka clearly had decided to counter-attack when they could. With 16 minutes played A. Ringinen almost gave the home side the lead with an unexpected free kick set up, but the visitors' N. Buzaglo was onto it, grabbing the would be breakthrough ball. At 29 minutes played, A. Ringinen came in from the right with the intention of giving Tiki-taka the lead, but his rocket of a shot rattled the crossbar. Led_Zeppelin's M. Drenthen refused to leave the field after injuring his achilles tendon after 30 minutes. It was 0 - 0 at the break. Tiki-taka claimed to have seen most of the ball, and the statistics agreed with them - possession being 58 percent.

L. Mogge came close to putting the visiting team one up 67 minutes into the match, following a solo raid down the middle, but S. Nance managed to tip the ball to a corner. C. Amberg of Tiki-taka received a yellow card after 76 minutes for unsportsmanlike behaviour. 79 minutes of the match played, and a comedy of errors by the home side gave the visitors a chance at the lead, but J. Camacho, after finding himself dashing down on goal from the left with only the keeper to beat, sliced his shot horribly wide. After 80 minutes, Led_Zeppelin's A. Yurre made his way through the middle and nonchalantly placed the ball out of the keeper's reach, putting the visitors up 0 - 1. Tiki-taka's D. Musall almost tied things up with 82 minutes played after breaking through on the right, but his shot deflected off the post. Tiki-taka's M. Demaison was shown a yellow card after 85 minutes for slicing down an opponent. 86 minutes into the game, Led_Zeppelin were awarded a penalty and Z. Boruch was able to increase the visitors' lead to 0 - 2 rolling the ball in by the right post. Tiki-taka had most of the ball, with 53 percent of possession.

Most important Tiki-taka player was L. Aalders. M. Demaison on the other hand, had a terrible day. The most dominating Led_Zeppelin player was without a doubt V. Pimenta. L. Ghelfi was a disappointment, however. The match ends 0 - 2.
