Fagerborg 4 - 2 Bachelskerne (384109524)

It had rained all day, but 61040 hardy fans still made it out to Marienlyst. Fagerborg had chosen a strategic 3-5-2 formation. The following players had been chosen: Stritt - Milushev, Yanong, Åhs - Lašinius, Dios, 冠安 (Guanan), Abu-Najjar, Penoff - Mihályfi, Ekener.

Bachelskerne decided to use a 4-4-2 set up. Starters: Lugosi - Andrzejewski, Sbandi, Moeykens, Martínez - Durham, Bertheussen, Jensen, Walter - Bazan, Bonilla Mangas.

For their match strategy, Bachelskerne had decided to use their ability to counter-attack whenever possible. M. Bonilla Mangas slipped and slithered in the wet grass. His usual rapid runs were nowhere to be seen today. Fagerborg took the lead after 19 minutes as a result of F. Ekener's peach of a shot from the right hand side of the box - placed beautifully in the top corner. 1 - 0. The corner kick from U. Walter was powerfully met by the head of A. Sbandi to make the score 1 - 1. The muddy pitch made the game a gritty affair, which seemed to suit X. Dios just fine. 29 minutes into the game, a swerving free kick by V. Åhs almost resulted in the home team taking the lead, but the shot glanced harmlessly off the frame of the goal. It wasn't a pretty goal, but the free kick by V. Åhs after 34 minutes somehow found its way past the keeper. Fagerborg takes the lead, 2 - 1! Fagerborg's V. Åhs struck his penalty well enough to beat the goalkeeper and extend the home team's lead to 3 - 1 after 35 minutes. It was 3 - 1 at the break. Fagerborg had most of the ball, with 61 percent of possession.

After 50 minutes, a couple of quick and successful challenges followed by a shot from just outside the penalty area by M. Lašinius might have resulted in another goal for Fagerborg. However, V. Lugosi made a spectacular save. Fagerborg's V. Åhs saw his fine effort strike the top of the bar following some good work up the middle by his teammates after 69 minutes. Bachelskerne played a good counterattacking move down the left 70 minutes into the match, with M. Bonilla Mangas finishing well for 3 - 2. Fagerborg solidified their lead at the 75 minute mark, as F. Ekener dribbled the ball through the opposing central defence and scored to make it 4 - 2. At this point, it was obvious that the players of Fagerborg lowered the tempo and became more defensively oriented. With 77 minutes played, Fagerborg's V. Åhs almost extended the lead, but his shot from the left glanced off the top of the bar to fall behind the net. Fagerborg's M. Mihályfi was shown a yellow card for standing over the ball and blocking an opponent's quick free kick after 78 minutes. Although the whole team were struggling to impress, Bachelskerne's A. Sbandi was singled out as being the problem as he was called off the pitch after 80 minutes. C. Lebrun was given a chance to change things around. Bachelskerne needed a fresh pair of legs on the field, and after 80 minutes A. Moeykens made way for P. Hægeland. 周. 冠安 (Guanan) left the field with a smile on his face as he was substituted 89 minutes into the game, as his team was in the lead. R. Ness was the replacement. The coach of Fagerborg was happy with the game so far, but still wanted to change the line up. After 89 minutes, M. Backhaus came on for M. Lašinius. The Fagerborg players could smell victory in the air. F. Ekener wasn't in a hurry to leave the field as he was substituted for K. Westinga after 89 minutes. Fagerborg enjoyed most of the ball, as they maintained 59 percent of possession.

Fagerborg's best player was M. Mihályfi. On the other hand, M. Backhaus's play was disheartening. M. Bonilla Mangas performed admirably for Bachelskerne. C. Lebrun turned in a dismal performance, however. The match ends 4 - 2.
