previous 8/10 next 10/10  Estacazo 0 - 2 Celtic (393038259)

39178 spectators had come to El Mirador de la Vueltuca this cloudy day. Gál Eck was the appointed referee with assistance provided by Tomas Wolters and Dylan De Jésus. Estacazo had chosen a strategic 4-5-1 formation. The following players took the field: Dell'Anno - Torre, Pérez, Galbete, Recio - Leuteritz, Monge, Sabol, Kozak, Örnblad - Medings.

Celtic started off with a 4-4-2 lineup. They fielded: Procaccianti - Xarpell, Son, Freudenburg, Treu - Cariaco, Fañanas, Vadillo, Pujol - Suárez, Navarro.

Using their counter-attacking abilities was the strategy of choice for Celtic. With 10 minutes played, O. Medings of Estacazo fell dramatically just outside the penalty area. However, the referee was unimpressed, and booked him for diving. The guests took the lead 11 minutes into the match, after a right-side attack resulted in X. Navarro scoring to make it 0 - 1. With the clock showing 15 minutes played, a great pass from the defensive line of Celtic resulted in a counterattack that was smoothly brought under control by P. Cariaco in the centre of the opposition's penalty area, but his finish went high. It was 0 - 1 at the break. Estacazo claimed to have seen most of the ball, and the statistics agreed with them - possession being 61 percent.

Estacazo needed a fresh pair of legs on the field, and after 46 minutes G. Galbete made way for D. Bejes. Celtic almost scored after a swift counterattack 48 minutes into the game, but X. Navarro put the shot from the left flank just outside the goal. After 59 minutes, there was a bit of a mixup on the field as Celtic found themselves out of position and their organisation level dropped to inadequate. Celtic's N. Treu was shown a yellow card after 61 minutes for slicing down an opponent. O. Medings made a superb strike after 65 minutes with a shot straight in front of the goal after a long ball through the middle, but one of the visitors' defenders got a foot in at the last second and warded it off for a corner. L. Vadillo increased the visitors' lead by putting a volley away after a pass from the right. 0 - 2. The players of Celtic now seemed to think the job was done and acted more defensively, just waiting for the ref to blow the final whistle. Estacazo had most of the ball, with 63 percent of possession.

Estacazo's top performer was clearly O. Medings. P. Recio turned in a dismal performance, however. Celtic's best player was X. Navarro. P. Freudenburg on the other hand, had a terrible day. The match ends 0 - 2.
