Forza 6 - 0 VCTorpedo (390321033)

19841 spectators arrived at Stadion Oosterpark, where weather conditions were pretty good for football. Steen Rud Lind was the appointed referee with assistance provided by Roberto Serio and Lennart Risblad. Forza had chosen a strategic 3-5-2 formation. The following players had been chosen: Boldrini - Brzęczek, Luebbe, van der Branden - Van Der Borght, Boterhoek, bin Mohammad, Alecu, Bušek - Aronds, van Eijsden.

VCTorpedo tactics involved an interesting 3-5-2 combination. The following players took the field: Fransson - Karlsson, Ronda, Simonsson - Kal, Fraternale, Bazin, Zavadil, Passarini - Riaza, Grande Larrouy.

Forza clearly preferred using their ability to attack in the middle. Forza had a good opportunity to attack on the wing, but remembered their instructions to go for middle attacks. VCTorpedo's counterattacks created a good chance for M. Riaza on the right after 24 minutes, but he could only look on with dismay as his strike rebounded off the crossbar. After 28 minutes, the home side was awarded a penalty. The visitors protested wildly but the referee was adamant. M. bin Mohammad easily put the ball away to give the lead to Forza. 1 - 0 J. van der Branden of Forza received a yellow card after 34 minutes for unsportsmanlike behaviour. 40 minutes into the match, the visitors' central line of defence had to look on as V. Bušek broke through, making the score 2 - 0 for Forza. Having been awarded a free kick in an awkward position after 41 minutes, Forza did not go for a shot but instead fired the ball hard into the 6 yard box. After a brief tussle with his marker, A. Aronds was able to power the ball past the keeper to make the score 3 - 0. 3 - 0 was the score after the first half. Forza enjoyed most of the ball, as they maintained 60 percent of possession.

Central attacks were the recipe of the day for Forza, as they moved the ball from the wings to the middle with startling regularity. Forza solidified their lead at the 48 minute mark, as A. Aronds dribbled the ball through the opposing central defence and scored to make it 4 - 0. The players of Forza now seemed to think the job was done and acted more defensively, just waiting for the ref to blow the final whistle. An accurate cross from A. Van Der Borght of Forza was met with a wonderful glancing header from A. van Eijsden, hitting the inside base of the post before nestling into the back of the net for 5 - 0. M. bin Mohammad increased Forza's lead to 6 - 0 with a penalty spot cannonball. Forza were determined to attack in the middle, even their wing attacks ended up centrally. Content with how the game was proceeding, the Forza coach let E. Zárate replace A. van Eijsden after 85 minutes. With 85 minutes played, Forza's V. Bušek almost extended the lead, but his shot from the left glanced off the top of the bar to fall behind the net. Forza had most of the ball, with 59 percent of possession.

E. Zárate performed admirably for Forza. V. Bušek on the other hand, had a terrible day. VCTorpedo's top performer was clearly M. Riaza. T. Fransson was a disappointment, however. The match ends 6 - 0.
