Geordios 2 - 1 Asinine (390050819)

Fairly good weather for football had drawn a crowd of 70005 to Julio Geordios Arena. Adrián Žáčko was the appointed referee with assistance provided by Christer Ekenlund and Nguyễn Văn Tự. A 3-5-2 alignment was the formation of choice for Geordios. They fielded: Džovenis - Hampartsoumyan, Tienza, Knutsson - Koroza, Croft, Ruiz, Tenshin, Ellard - Kavooris, Egli.

Asinine started off with a 3-5-2 lineup. The following players took the field: Królicki - Young, Farneti, Cranman - Jándula, Makaš, Chomka, van Noord, Étienne - Hidasi, Shovkovskiy.

S. Ellard could have put Geordios into the lead after 4 minutes, but the free kick went just wide. This was a good period for the visitors, with several opportunities to take the lead, particularly when K. Cranman slipped through the defence on the right to come up alone against J. Džovenis, but the home side's keeper showed his lightning reflexes. The celebrations in the stands could only mean one thing - S. Ellard's free kick had found the back of the net and put Geordios ahead 1 - 0! One of many good crosses from A. Koroza on the wing was received and skillfully taken care of by M. Egli, who scored for Geordios. 2 - 0 Ater 31 minutes D. Chomka seized on an opportunistic attack from the right, and scored for Asinine making it 2 - 1. It was 2 - 1 at the break. Possession in this half belonged to Geordios, who controlled the ball 60 percent of the time.

T. Tenshin wanted to play on, but the Geordios coach had other ideas, and he was replaced 50 minutes into the game by M. Grunze. Although the whole team were struggling to impress, Asinine's J. Étienne was singled out as being the problem as he was called off the pitch after 60 minutes. S. Warchoł was given a chance to change things around. Geordios put in a good effort on the right, but M. Egli saw his volley fly wide of the mark 81 minutes into the game. Asinine's right side looked dangerous 84 minutes in, but J. Džovenis made a good save on S. Warchoł's hard shot to the top corner. Geordios had most of the ball, with 59 percent of possession.

The most dominating Geordios player was without a doubt M. Egli. However, M. Grunze made a disastrous appearance. I. Shovkovskiy performed admirably for Asinine. On the other hand, M. Królicki's play was disheartening. The match ends 2 - 1.
