Romasz 1 - 5 Realista (387335031)

It was an exceptionally sunny day for the crowd of 12094 that came out to imienia Karola Wojtyły. Rosch Kruchten was the appointed referee with assistance provided by Gregory Grech and Martín Rosas. Romasz had chosen a strategic 4-5-1 formation. The following players took the field: Ilonen - Mondor, Lebiedź, Hałuszczak, Klaczka - Wziątek, Hołówka, Grygar, Krzywania, Matuszyk - Knerr.

Realista decided to use a 3-5-2 set up. The following players had been chosen: Musy - Romero Osborne, Cabarrús, Ungier - Huberman, Gaitatzidis, Ejsmont, Briones, Szymczewski - Känd, Feldthaus.

Romasz immediately set off using their skill at pressing their opponents. Several players seemed a little dazed by the warm weather, and were repeatedly tricked by the clever and agile K. Krzywania. At this time in the match, Romasz were using their skill at pressing to successfully stifle the game. After several obvious shirt pulling incidents, J. Szymczewski got himself booked. The manager of Realista was not happy. After 14 minutes, Realista's W. Ungier made his way through the middle and nonchalantly placed the ball out of the keeper's reach, putting the visitors up 0 - 1. G. Knerr sailed high above the opponents as he headed in a corner kick from W. Lebiedź after 20 minutes of play, making the score 1 - 1. Realista took the lead 26 minutes into the game, making the score 1 - 2 after some elegant movement down the middle. J. Romero Osborne was the scorer. Romasz's S. Klaczka was shown a yellow card for standing over the ball and blocking an opponent's quick free kick after 36 minutes. Realista increased the lead to 1 - 3 as H. Känd scored from the penalty spot, putting the ball in near the top left corner. L. Huberman increased the visitors' lead by putting a volley away after a pass from the right. 1 - 4. Halftime score was 1 - 4. Possession in the forty-five minutes was dominated by Realista, with 62 percent of the ball.

G. Matuszyk of Romasz was booked for kicking the ball away after the whistle. After 67 minutes, a mistake by the home side's left defence allowed J. Szymczewski to get through. He outclassed the home side's keeper, adding another goal for the visitors. 1 - 5. At this point, it was obvious that the players of Realista lowered the tempo and became more defensively oriented. Usually a powerful player on the field, S. Klaczka looked kind of pale and tired under the hot sun. The referee showed Realista's J. Ejsmont the yellow card after a particularly nasty challenge. Although the whole team were struggling to impress, Romasz's D. Hałuszczak was singled out as being the problem as he was called off the pitch after 87 minutes. E. Ścieszko was given a chance to change things around. Romasz's talent at pressing frustrated the spectators as the game became a dire midfield struggle. With 88 minutes played, the Romasz coach decided a substitution may help turn the game around. D. Rykaczewski came on, G. Knerr had to leave the fray. Romasz's E. Ścieszko had to watch the rest of the game from the sidelines, after twisting his ankle with 88 minutes having been played. A. Cieślarczyk was the replacement. Realista claimed to have seen most of the ball, and the statistics agreed with them - possession being 74 percent.

Romasz's top performer was clearly M. Grygar. G. Matuszyk on the other hand, had a terrible day. Realista's best player was R. Briones. W. Ungier turned in a dismal performance, however. The match ends 1 - 5.
