22-07-2012 04.30
Clear skies welcomed the 12000 spectators who had made their way to
Lemonade Arena.
Jeremy MacAdie was the appointed referee with assistance provided by
Kai Prang and
Gian-Reto Fischbach.
A 3-5-2 alignment was the formation of choice for Lemonades.
Lineup: Yong Cheng - Shi Wee, Ashraful, Li Keong - Kiong Kuan, Pawar, Stielike, 矢島 (Yajima), Chao Huat - Ghaffur, Choon Kok.
Muggeridians tactics involved an interesting 4-5-1 combination.
The following players took the field: Salama - Zúñiga Sotomayor, Gümüş, Ringeling, Carnevale - Gandra, Mesznajder, Martínez, Ping Teck, Barslev - Poddębniak.
Lemonades clearly preferred using their ability to attack in the middle.
After the game, the most discussed event will probably be the penalty given after 14 minutes that gave the visitors the 0 - 1 lead. Despite the controversy,
S. Martínez struck home the penalty, as cool as anything.
The visitors'
M. Poddębniak took advantage of a misunderstanding between the home side's goalie and centre backs 24 minutes into the match. 0 - 2 for Muggeridians.
The players of Muggeridians now seemed to think the job was done and acted more defensively, just waiting for the ref to blow the final whistle.
C. Carnevale of Muggeridians received a yellow card after 29 minutes for unsportsmanlike behaviour.
It was 0 - 2 at the break.
Muggeridians claimed to have seen most of the ball, and the statistics agreed with them - possession being 71 percent.
The home crowd was not impressed when
K. Gümüş came in from the right, shooting hard to score after 61 minutes. Muggeridians were now up 0 - 3.
Although the whole team were struggling to impress, Lemonades's
M. Pawar was singled out as being the problem as he was called off the pitch after 70 minutes.
O. Cheng Kwang was given a chance to change things around.
A drive down the left side allowed
C. Ping Teck to get in close and score another goal for Muggeridians after 70 minutes, taking the score to 0 - 4.
The home crowd cheered when, after 75 minutes,
J. Zúñiga Sotomayor's charge up the middle resulted in the keeper making one of his best saves of the day.
Muggeridians's
C. Barslev was shown a yellow card after 78 minutes for slicing down an opponent.
After 79 minutes, Muggeridians's
M. Poddębniak burst through the central defence and let loose a cannonball of a shot, scoring for 0 - 5.
M. Poddębniak of Muggeridians seemed to be floating in the air as he elegantly headed in to make the score 0 - 6 after a corner kick that was nicely executed by
S. Martínez.
That was his third goal of the match - a hat trick for
M. Poddębniak.
After 85 minutes, an incisive pass through the middle gave
J. Gandra a chance to increase the lead for Muggeridians, and he did not disappoint. The score was then 0 - 7.
Lemonades's
T. Chao Huat was shown a yellow card for standing over the ball and blocking an opponent's quick free kick after 87 minutes.
Muggeridians enjoyed most of the ball, as they maintained 77 percent of possession.
Most important Lemonades player was
A. Ghaffur.
On the other hand,
O. Yong Cheng's play was disheartening.
Muggeridians's top performer was clearly
M. Poddębniak.
V. Salama turned in a dismal performance, however.
The match ends 0 - 7.
