previous 1/10 next 3/10  Steffaab 1 - 1 United (389425768)

26452 punters turned up at AaBField, and despite threatening clouds on the horizon, no rain came. Dennis Nordahl was the appointed referee with assistance provided by Mehrshad Ayoubinejad and Antonio Brillante. Steffaab decided to use a 3-5-2 set up. Lineup: Harder - Ravnsbo, Ðurić, Hermansen - Mallet, Krygiel, Brambati, Lorigados, Monteiro - Kuleshov, Kure Vidkjær.

United started off with a 3-4-3 lineup. They fielded: Alexandersson - Irıs, Normand, Stolberg - Højsgaard, Dehli, Escobal, Heusinger - Delvigne, Recão, Mathiasson.

Steffaab mostly ignored the flanks in favour of their ability to attack in the middle. United's P. Recão was shown a yellow card after 8 minutes for slicing down an opponent. It was obvious that team Steffaab had instructions to attack in the middle instead of on the wings. N. Stolberg of United was booked for kicking the ball away after the whistle. After 36 minutes, a deliberate handball from United's N. Stolberg was judged to be his second bookable offence, and he was sent off. United's S. Normand managed to lose the defenders as he advanced down the right wing and scored, putting the visitors ahead after 39 minutes. 0 - 1. It was 0 - 1 at the break. Steffaab claimed to have seen most of the ball, and the statistics agreed with them - possession being 58 percent.

Steffaab needed a fresh pair of legs on the field, and after 75 minutes A. Mallet made way for R. Bernlund. The Steffaab captaincy was handed to R. Bernlund. R. Bernlund showed the skills that make him a real crowd pleaser as he, after 79 minutes, wove through the guests' entire central defence and put the 1 - 1 equaliser away. 80 minutes into the match, the referee signalled for a Steffaab substitution. T. Waxhofer came on for W. Brambati. After a fine move down the middle J. Kure Vidkjær nearly gave the home side a goal after 84 minutes. However the finishing shot went just wide. Steffaab had most of the ball, with 59 percent of possession.

Steffaab's top performer was clearly Ł. Krygiel. On the other hand, E. Hermansen's play was disheartening. R. Heusinger performed admirably for United. However, T. Irıs made a disastrous appearance. The match ends 1 - 1.
