TomakinFC 1 - 1 FOReVER (388932203)

The weather was pretty good, and a crowd of 20050 had shown up at TMKN Arena for the match. Paulo Jorge Barral was the appointed referee with assistance provided by Stefan Bergby and Pekka Kuningas. TomakinFC had chosen a strategic 3-5-2 formation. Lineup: Cierocki - Vuoriainen, Tagni, Morille - Winsauer, Labudović, Lange, Budiman, Coldenhoff - Cox, Kullenling.

FOReVER decided to use a 4-4-2 set up. They fielded: Alsun - Baró, Lilie, Cavilli, Viaña - Vasi, Gedikbaş, Yasan, Atıl - Castro Teixeira, Küçükbilezikçi.

TomakinFC showed off their creative tactics. FOReVER tried to focus their attacks down the middle. The opposing supporters gave the referee an earful when he only gave A. Budiman from TomakinFC a yellow card after a mistimed challenge from behind 14 minutes into the game. That was far too lenient! 15 minutes had elapsed when a great chance for TomakinFC to take the lead after a good cross from the right found H. Winsauer alone with the keeper, but he chipped it to the wrong side of the post. Central attacks were the recipe of the day for FOReVER, as they moved the ball from the wings to the middle with startling regularity. G. Vasi came close to putting the visiting team one up 16 minutes into the match, following a solo raid down the middle, but A. Cierocki managed to tip the ball to a corner. They were singing the praises of V. Labudović 17 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 TomakinFC. FOReVER's U. Küçükbilezikçi had to watch the rest of the game from the sidelines, after twisting his ankle with 33 minutes having been played. T. Sondal was the replacement. The teams went for the halftime break at 1 - 0. Possession in this half belonged to FOReVER, who controlled the ball 51 percent of the time.

With 85 minutes played, A. Vuoriainen of TomakinFC fell dramatically just outside the penalty area. However, the referee was unimpressed, and booked him for diving. Ö. Gedikbaş hit the corner kick straight to the keeper, but it was mishandled, giving FOReVER's D. Lilie an easy chance to knock it in for 1 - 1. FOReVER had most of the ball, with 51 percent of possession.

TomakinFC's top performer was clearly J. Kullenling. However, N. Coldenhoff made a disastrous appearance. Most important FOReVER player was G. Castro Teixeira. T. Sondal turned in a dismal performance, however. The match ends 1 - 1.
