Bröderna 4 - 1 Tanto (388104319)

56607 spectators arrived at Old Firm, where weather conditions were pretty good for football. José Eduardo Ybarra Pacheco was the appointed referee. Bröderna started off with a 4-4-2 lineup. The following players had been chosen: Vera Cordero - Hansen, Rinnooy Kan, Martínez, Nemtzov - Thörnland, Didonè, Pop, Valentino - Eroshkin, Månsson.

Tanto tactics involved an interesting 4-3-3 combination. Lineup: Ehner - Bonner, Neumeyer, Lozachmeur, Nicoletta - Wästerwald, Falkskär, Helstad - Danielsson, Borgin, Andersson.

Bröderna were mostly trying to use their skill at attacking on the flanks. For their match strategy, Tanto had decided to use their ability to counter-attack whenever possible. V. Danielsson's speed was clear to see after 31 minutes, as he darted down the wing and released R. Borgin who placed the ball into the back of the net to make the score 0 - 1. O. Eroshkin made a superb strike after 35 minutes with a shot straight in front of the goal after a long ball through the middle, but one of the visitors' defenders got a foot in at the last second and warded it off for a corner. Good work by the Tanto defensive line after 40 minutes produced a good counterattack chance, which cut elegantly down the middle of the pitch and found J. Falkskär alone in front of the goal, but his shot whistled just wide. Players in Bröderna heard their coach's words ringing in their ears and steered their central attacks to the wings instead. After 43 minutes, the defensive line of Tanto created a counterattack through the middle that gave V. Danielsson a good look at the goal, but his shot glanced harmlessly off the crossbar. Due to some great work on the right wing Bröderna's G. Rinnooy Kan was able to even the score after 44 minutes to make the score 1 - 1. 1 - 1 was the halftime score. Possession in the forty-five minutes was dominated by Bröderna, with 65 percent of the ball.

The opposing supporters gave the referee an earful when he only gave A. Lozachmeur from Tanto a yellow card after a mistimed challenge from behind 49 minutes into the game. That was far too lenient! As the 59 minute mark approached, the Bröderna coach decided it was time for a substitution. Y. Nemtzov reluctantly made way for A. Soto Camino on the pitch. 64 minutes into the match Tanto's J. Andersson viciously shoved another player from behind while going for a loose ball and was sent off the pitch with a red card. Bröderna were very close to putting themselves one up after 73 minutes as I. Månsson got through on the left, but failing in concentration, he shot the ball wide. With 80 minutes played, the home side managed to get a 2 - 1 lead as O. Eroshkin flipped the ball in after a cross from the right. The coach of Bröderna was happy with the game so far, but still wanted to change the line up. After 81 minutes, B. Blaščík came on for O. Eroshkin. After 81 minutes, Bröderna felt secure enough to make a tactical change. C. Didonè and B. Blaščík assumed each others positions on the field. The Bröderna coach was visibly pleased with the score so far, but still ordered a few tactical changes 81 minutes into the game. Bröderna had a good opportunity to attack in the middle, but remembered their instructions to focus on wing attacks instead. Bröderna put themselves up 3 - 1 when O. Pop broke through on the right, leaving the entire defence trailing in his wake. B. Blaščík increased the lead for Bröderna to 4 - 1, 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! Bröderna had most of the ball, with 69 percent of possession.

Bröderna's top performer was clearly O. Pop. A. Soto Camino on the other hand, had a terrible day. The most dominating Tanto player was without a doubt T. Helstad. F. Ehner was a disappointment, however. The match ends 4 - 1.
