Blood 5 - 0 Yohakkis (383202539)

Weather conditions were fairly good for football, and Fire & Blood saw a crowd turnout of 5436. Giovanbattista Di Lorenzo was the appointed referee with assistance provided by Florian Richter and Gaétan Oliveira. A 3-5-2 alignment was the formation of choice for Blood. Starters: Montes Fuentes - Zarza, Garcés, Franquesa - Huhta, Ebdrup, Obelienius, Basteiro, Aginagalde - Fernández Muras, Arasa.

Yohakkis tactics involved an interesting 4-4-2 combination. Lineup: Las Obras - Egibar, Tabares, Cànoves, Jové - Calveras, Baldeón, Jaume, Cendrero - Urisarri, Juara.

After 3 minutes, M. Obelienius came in from the right, feinted, then sped past the off-balance defender to make the score 1 - 0, giving Blood the lead. The referee showed Yohakkis's B. Egibar the yellow card after a particularly nasty challenge. After 26 minutes, S. Basteiro put Blood ahead 2 - 0 when he rose to head in a cross from the right wing. S. Basteiro should probably have put his team up another goal after 35 minutes, but some great goalkeeping by E. Las Obras kept the visitors in the game. Blood's D. Zarza struck his penalty well enough to beat the goalkeeper and extend the home team's lead to 3 - 0 after 36 minutes. After this, you could see that the players of Blood were more interested in killing time than scoring more goals. The teams went for the halftime break at 3 - 0. Blood enjoyed most of the ball, as they maintained 73 percent of possession.

B. Fernández Muras could have increased the lead after 56 minutes, but his shot hit the post after a nice combination in the middle of the park. L. Jové of Yohakkis was booked for kicking the ball away after the whistle. A magnificent combination in the middle resulted in Blood's J. Arasa increasing the lead to 4 - 0. Blood's J. Arasa increased the lead to 5 - 0, after he saw his shot go between the legs of the advancing goalkeeper following some good play down the right wing after 64 minutes. C. Constantinoiu was called on to replace Blood's J. Arasa after 65 minutes following a nasty collision. Possession in the forty-five minutes was dominated by Blood, with 76 percent of the ball.

B. Fernández Muras performed admirably for Blood. D. Zarza turned in a dismal performance, however. The most dominating Yohakkis player was without a doubt B. Jaume. L. Jové on the other hand, had a terrible day. The match ends 5 - 0.
