ESTRELLAOS 0 - 6 Gladiator (383392806)

Clouds darkened the skies at FC ESTRELLAOS Arena as 7119 spectators turned up for the match. Loek Pavey was the appointed referee with assistance provided by Servan Rousselle and Gabriel Rossi. All of Barcelona was shut down for the day, as fans of both clubs came to the derby. A 4-4-2 alignment was the formation of choice for ESTRELLAOS. Lineup: Collado - Bueno, Danés, Eguiarte, Ustoa - Arce, Benseny, Reverter, Mândricel - Folguera, Millau.

Gladiator decided to use a 4-4-2 set up. The following players had been chosen: Peaguda - Sacaluga, Carballedo, Kandil, Fuentes - Irala, Fañanas, Marchena, Casanueva - Ares, Henríquez.

After 5 minutes, Gladiator's M. Fañanas made his way through the middle and nonchalantly placed the ball out of the keeper's reach, putting the visitors up 0 - 1. Gladiator's S. Ares got himself booked for a foul. A loud groan was heard from the fans of ESTRELLAOS, as A. Benseny left the pitch in too much pain to finish the match. M. Duque took his place on the field. Gladiator increased their lead after 29 minutes when M. Irala broke through on the right, upping the score to 0 - 2, much to the home crowd's dismay. With 31 minutes played, a quick exchange of passes on the left wing freed M. Irala of Gladiator to slip through the defence and score another goal for the visitors. That made the score 0 - 3. S. Ares increased the visitors' lead by putting a volley away after a pass from the right. 0 - 4. Confident in their lead, Gladiator's players relaxed and focused more on defending the lead than increasing it. D. Ustoa of ESTRELLAOS received a yellow card after 43 minutes for unsportsmanlike behaviour. 44 minutes into the match, the visitors put themselves ahead 0 - 5 as M. Marchena finished off an attack from the left with a spectacular scissors kick. ESTRELLAOS's M. Collado refused to leave the field after injuring his achilles tendon after 44 minutes. The teams went for the halftime break at 0 - 5. Gladiator had most of the ball, with 61 percent of possession.

With 75 minutes played, A. Casanueva of Gladiator fell dramatically just outside the penalty area. However, the referee was unimpressed, and booked him for diving. After 80 minutes, a mistake by the home side's left defence allowed L. Henríquez to get through. He outclassed the home side's keeper, adding another goal for the visitors. 0 - 6. Possession in this half belonged to Gladiator, who controlled the ball 61 percent of the time.

The most dominating ESTRELLAOS player was without a doubt J. Folguera. On the other hand, M. Collado's play was disheartening. L. Henríquez performed admirably for Gladiator. However, H. Carballedo made a disastrous appearance. The match ends 0 - 6.
