FK 3 - 3 TheNoodles (384125769)

A scorching day at Blink arena, where 33772 spectators were in place for today's match. Santo Crotta was the appointed referee with assistance provided by Rene Dyrvig and Mats Roders. FK tactics involved an interesting 3-5-2 combination. The following players had been chosen: Hoyos - Valderhaug, Lang, Pinkney - 书唯 (Shuwei), Nesti, Levy, Donis, Daszczuk - Heuthaler, van Orsouw.

A 3-5-2 alignment was the formation of choice for TheNoodles. Starters: Översti - Søndergaard, García de Veas, Haugerud - Speer, Zarzeczny, Heitmann, van Boheemen, Lepoivre - Nowaczyk, Bråthen.

With 3 minutes played, L. Bråthen of TheNoodles fell dramatically just outside the penalty area. However, the referee was unimpressed, and booked him for diving. M. Donis enjoyed the sunshine and demonstrated his stunning technique over and over again. Many thought A. Levy ought to have been awarded a penalty 23 minutes into the game, as he went down trying to dribble around J. Översti after a determined run through the middle. R. van Orsouw of FK seemed to be floating in the air as he elegantly headed in to make the score 1 - 0 after a corner kick that was nicely executed by A. Levy. After 27 minutes, a couple of quick and successful challenges followed by a shot from just outside the penalty area by P. Heuthaler might have resulted in another goal for FK. However, J. Översti made a spectacular save. With clinical precision, the cross from winger B. Speer found its way to L. Bråthen's head, and a screaming header gave TheNoodles the goal after 30 minutes played. 1 - 1 1 - 1 was the score after the first half. FK had most of the ball, with 51 percent of possession.

L. Haugerud found it hard to catch his breath today in the stifling heat. 54 minutes of the match played, and a comedy of errors by the home side gave the visitors a chance at the lead, but F. García de Veas, after finding himself dashing down on goal from the left with only the keeper to beat, sliced his shot horribly wide. After 55 minutes, FK surprised their opponents with a breakaway counter attack. The defenders had to resort to a foul to stop it. The free kick that followed was a clever indirect effort that almost succeeded, but the defence read the situation well and the intended recipient was left ruing what might have been. FK took the lead after 72 minutes as a result of P. Heuthaler's peach of a shot from the right hand side of the box - placed beautifully in the top corner. 2 - 1. The visitors refused to give in and, after 73 minutes, L. Zarzeczny evened things up as he finished off a perfect pass from the right. 2 - 2 FK took the lead 74 minutes in, as P. Heuthaler broke through on the left and put the 3 - 2 shot just beyond the reach of the outstretched keeper. The home crowd was dismayed when the referee called a penalty for TheNoodles after 83 minutes. B. Speer calmly took the shot and scored. The game was level at 3 - 3. Possession in the forty-five minutes was dominated by FK, with 53 percent of the ball.

The most dominating FK player was without a doubt M. Donis. A. Nesti on the other hand, had a terrible day. TheNoodles's best player was A. Nowaczyk. However, L. Haugerud made a disastrous appearance. The match ends 3 - 3.
