Lords 1 - 0 Blancas (391261140)

22617 fans braved the pouring rain at Coliseo Medieval. Iván Dalí was the appointed referee with assistance provided by Olaf-Ivo Hochleitner and Pekka Liikala. People from all over Metropolitana had joined up for the derby. Lords had chosen a strategic 4-5-1 formation. The following players had been chosen: Ferráez - Robles, Preces, Pitner, Setiawan - López, Irniger, Snäck, Rubiano, Idman - Machado.

Blancas decided to use a 3-4-3 set up. Lineup: Matilainen - Kałuziak, Amri, Zacaia - Mrnjavčević, van Gogh, Colasante, Roisin - Aertgeerts, Omer, Federer.

Lords clearly had decided to counter-attack when they could. The referee showed Blancas's S. Kałuziak the yellow card after a particularly nasty challenge. Blancas's D. van Gogh left the field after 31 minutes because of a nasty blow to the shin. His replacement was C. van der Valk. 0 - 0 was the score after the first half. Lords enjoyed most of the ball, as they maintained 63 percent of possession.

After 47 minutes, the Lords coach wanted to see a new face on the pitch, waving R. Machado off the field. J. Martiarena took his place. Thighs bulging, R. Roisin charged past the weaker players, seemingly oblivious to the rain. 72 minutes into the match, Blancas nearly took the lead, as N. Federer broke through on the right. T. Ferráez made the save, however. Lords took the lead after 84 minutes as a result of S. Irniger's peach of a shot from the right hand side of the box - placed beautifully in the top corner. 1 - 0. Lords had most of the ball, with 56 percent of possession.

S. Irniger performed admirably for Lords. However, E. Idman made a disastrous appearance. The most dominating Blancas player was without a doubt N. Federer. T. Colasante was a disappointment, however. The match ends 1 - 0.
