Little 8 - 0 Peking (387517810)

12000 punters turned up at DerBunker, and despite threatening clouds on the horizon, no rain came. Filipe Valério was the appointed referee with assistance provided by Adir Elbaz and Vincenzo Hänggi. Little tactics involved an interesting 4-5-1 combination. The following players took the field: Abeliuk - Gay, Gomes, de Jongh, Sangalo - Economu, Bradipo, Pedrero, Hauppa, Dümmig - Dongelmans.

Peking decided to use a 4-4-2 set up. Lineup: Dieterling - Schober, Tremmel, Banovits, Zeidler - Woda, Debreczeni, Waibel, Marek - Winter, Schartner.

Little clearly had decided to counter-attack when they could. They were singing the praises of D. Gay 11 minutes into the match after his speculative chip from the middle of the penalty box found its way over the visitors' keeper to make the score 1 - 0 to Little. Things were going to get worse for the visitors. A. Dongelmans squirmed through their central defence after 15 minutes, increasing the lead to 2 - 0. Little put themselves up 3 - 0 when S. Pedrero broke through on the right, leaving the entire defence trailing in his wake. S. Schartner of Peking was booked for kicking the ball away after the whistle. A. Banovits still has a lot to learn. For instance, he should know not to make half-hearted passes in front of A. Dongelmans, who easily scored for Little, making it 4 - 0. The players of Little now seemed to think the job was done and acted more defensively, just waiting for the ref to blow the final whistle. 39 minutes into the match, the visitors' central line of defence had to look on as A. Bradipo broke through, making the score 5 - 0 for Little. The teams went for the halftime break at 5 - 0. Possession in the forty-five minutes was dominated by Little, with 57 percent of the ball.

S. Tremmel received some harsh words from his coach after he acted foolishly 51 minutes into the match, probably out of lack of experience, and almost let an opponent score. In an effort to secure the lead, Little changed their tactic after 60 minutes. The home side's D. Gay came close to extending the lead 62 minutes into the game. His shot came in from the right hand side but K. Dieterling managed to save it with an unbelievable reaction stop. Peking had to make a substitution after 63 minutes. R. Winter limped off the field and was replaced by M. Stolz. C. Economu wanted to play on, but the Little coach had other ideas, and he was replaced 65 minutes into the game by E. Atmaca. After 72 minutes, the away team failed to deal with a good exchange of passes on the right, and A. Dongelmans gave the Little supporters even more to cheer about when he increased the lead to 6 - 0. This third goal completed a hattrick for A. Dongelmans. The home side's A. Dongelmans curled a free kick home after 75 minutes, putting Little ahead 7 - 0. A. Bradipo increased the lead for Little to 8 - 0, getting a head onto a hooked ball from the right. The ball looked to have taken a deflection on the way in, but he's claiming it! Little claimed to have seen most of the ball, and the statistics agreed with them - possession being 65 percent.

Little's best player was A. Dongelmans. L. Sangalo was a disappointment, however. The most dominating Peking player was without a doubt C. Schober. However, A. Banovits made a disastrous appearance. The match ends 8 - 0.
