Il Potente 4 - 3 ANCHOs (391808972)

The 51873 fans in attendance at Estadio Rui Carrapatoso were roasting in the hot sun. Giacomo Lopez was the appointed referee with assistance provided by Edmundo Galo and Janik Pollauf. Il Potente decided to use a 3-5-2 set up. The following players took the field: Fernández - Seregni, Maidana, Strauch - Miedler, Pilguy, Sbíroli, González, Delerue - Luts, Hernández.

A 3-5-2 alignment was the formation of choice for ANCHOs. Lineup: Işınsoy - Reboa, Topçu, Amaya - Lemmrich, Margalit, de Feijter, Puupponen, Madariaga - Lucas Obes, Schiemann.

Il Potente were mostly trying to use their skill at attacking on the flanks. ANCHOs's O. Topçu could have put the guests one up after 9 minutes after chasing a through ball from the right, but M. Fernández was as fast as a snake, grabbing the ball from under his nose. After 10 minutes, a well-worked counterattack by Il Potente on the right presented an easy opportunity in front of the goal that was duly converted by L. Delerue to make it 1 - 0. P. Lucas Obes of ANCHOs seemed to be floating in the air as he elegantly headed in to make the score 1 - 1 after a corner kick that was nicely executed by J. Amaya. Il Potente took the lead after 18 minutes as a result of L. Sbíroli's peach of a shot from the right hand side of the box - placed beautifully in the top corner. 2 - 1. After 29 minutes, the visitors tied it up at 2 - 2 when a fantastic pass from the left was finished off by E. Madariaga. The home crowd breathed a collective sigh of relief when O. de Feijter was unable to put the ball in the net after his show of skill down the left 35 minutes into the match. He was seen beating the pitch in frustration at missing such a good chance to give his team the lead! 2 - 2 was the halftime score. ANCHOs enjoyed most of the ball, as they maintained 54 percent of possession.

Il Potente broke through on the left 71 minutes into the game, with L. Sbíroli firing in from an acute angle to give the home side a 3 - 2 lead. In the lead, Il Potente adjusted their style of play with 75 minutes gone. In an effort to secure the lead, Il Potente changed their tactic after 75 minutes. Il Potente put themselves up 4 - 2 when O. Luts broke through on the right, leaving the entire defence trailing in his wake. The visitors got one back when P. Lucas Obes finished off a pass from the left and scored after 79 minutes. 4 - 3 was the score. After 81 minutes a very unfortunate collision in the penalty area led to Il Potente's E. Maidana being carried off the pitch and replaced by J. Dall orso. P. Lucas Obes of ANCHOs received a yellow card after 83 minutes for unsportsmanlike behaviour. A cross coming in on the right hand side left P. Lucas Obes alone in front of the goal after 87 minutes but his shot was woeful. ANCHOs claimed to have seen most of the ball, and the statistics agreed with them - possession being 53 percent.

Il Potente's top performer was clearly L. Sbíroli. However, L. Delerue made a disastrous appearance. Most important ANCHOs player was G. Margalit. B. Lemmrich was a disappointment, however. The match ends 4 - 3.
