Roland, after finding himself dashing down on goal from the left with only the keeper to beat, sliced his shot horribly wide. Slack defending gave superstrudsen a chance to take the lead with 39 minutes played, but K. Leys's cross from the left flank was fumbled in front of the goal and easily dealt with by the opposition. In a rapid move 43 minutes into the match, K. Leys of superstrudsen lost his man and passed the ball to the unmarked J. Ørts who easily hit it home to make it 1 - 0. Luckily the ref didn't see him taunting the opposing fans in celebration - naughty boy! N. Schou made a good effort at breaking through on the right, but the home team's left defence cleared the ball to a corner. 1 - 0 was the halftime score. superstrudsen enjoyed most of the ball, as they maintained 54 percent of possession.

Holmgren wanted to play on, but the superstrudsen coach had other ideas, and he was replaced 75 minutes into the game by P. Bjerre. superstrudsen's P. Bjerre saw his fine effort strike the top of the bar following some good work up the middle by his teammates after 79 minutes. After 83 minutes, R.

Møller who had the whole net open before him, but only managed to hit the post. The Humpties free kick 87 minutes into the match seemed wasted, as the shot was both short and off target. But was this actually a plan? The ball landed at the feet of R. Meuwissen, who was completely unmarked in the box. That's 2 - 1! P. Célérier increased the lead for superstrudsen to 3 - 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!

Doğruer after 89 minutes following a nasty collision. superstrudsen claimed to have seen most of the ball, and the statistics agreed with them - possession being 57 percent.
