Numptybus 4 - 1 Noises (390063563)

It was an exceptionally sunny day for the crowd of 44853 that came out to Numpty Acres. Ricco Oberlin was the appointed referee with assistance provided by Marek Dworzecki and Klement Honzátko. A 4-4-2 alignment was the formation of choice for Numptybus. The following players had been chosen: Siefker - Malvoisin, Cramer, Juncal, Villa Calzadilla - Mičić, Isenschmid, Loadsman, Sisa - Fitzgibbon, Irons.

Noises tactics involved an interesting 2-5-3 combination. The following players took the field: Surace - Blatkiewicz, Spennesberger - Krøger, Biederer, Lahoud, Benecchi, Vall-llobera - Ternero, Tast, Glasmacher.

Numptybus fans held their breath as P. Cramer scampered down the left side. He successfully avoided all challenges and cracked home the shot for 1 - 0! Cheers filled the stadium as A. Malvoisin broke through the visitors' central defence to put away the ball to increase the lead to 2 - 0 to Numptybus. 21 minutes into the match, P. Cramer could have extended the lead, but his powerful free kick went just over the bar. Noises were desperate to get a goal back and pushed forward through the middle 22 minutes into the game. After a scramble in the box, the ball dropped to T. Tast, who smashed it home to make the score 2 - 1. The teams went for the halftime break at 2 - 1. Noises had most of the ball, with 51 percent of possession.

The opposing supporters gave the referee an earful when he only gave N. Biederer from Noises a yellow card after a mistimed challenge from behind 81 minutes into the game. That was far too lenient! Numptybus were forced into a substitution as S. Sisa couldn't continue due to some rough treatment, forcing T. Ylikylä to come in off the bench. Numptybus increased the lead as T. Ylikylä struck to make the score 3 - 1 after an attack from the left left him unmarked in front of the keeper. After this, you could see that the players of Numptybus were more interested in killing time than scoring more goals. After 86 minutes, J. Fitzgibbon put Numptybus ahead 4 - 1 when he rose to head in a cross from the right wing. Possession was split evenly between the teams.

Most important Numptybus player was S. Irons. T. Ylikylä was a disappointment, however. Noises's best player was N. Biederer. J. Spennesberger on the other hand, had a terrible day. The match ends 4 - 1.
