Blau 4 - 0 PayU (393255145)

It was an exceptionally sunny day for the crowd of 2074 that came out to Denkmalstadion. Bronisław Gorzela was the appointed referee with assistance provided by Cyrill Wihler and Pieter-Jan Keijman. Blau had chosen a strategic 3-5-2 formation. Starters: Korzym - Buday, Reinwald, Dreckmann - Bennetzen, Zimmermann, Gardas, Mandel, Fischer - Filderstadt, Konijnenbelt.

PayU tactics involved an interesting 4-5-1 combination. The following players had been chosen: Baysu - Kozimor, Bréhin, Wobbe, Pawełkiewicz - Lejman, Jadue, Sağay, Scherrer, Oago - Stolear.

With 11 minutes played, the home side managed to get a 1 - 0 lead as T. Konijnenbelt flipped the ball in after a cross from the right. M. Buday should probably have put his team up another goal after 20 minutes, but some great goalkeeping by Ş. Baysu kept the visitors in the game. With 22 minutes having been played, his teammates looked on in disbelief as N. Scherrer thoughtlessly misplayed the ball, setting up Blau's R. Filderstadt for an easy goal. 2 - 0. Blau put themselves up 3 - 0 when G. Dreckmann broke through on the right, leaving the entire defence trailing in his wake. By now, the players in Blau felt that victory was guaranteed and began to play it safe, focusing on defence and not risking too much going forward. After 29 minutes, PayU's H. Kozimor fell awkwardly, but was determined to stay in the match. That's the spirit! T. Konijnenbelt had a fantastic opportunity to put Blau up another goal 34 minutes into the match, but he fired just over the crossbar. 3 - 0 was the score after the first half. Blau claimed to have seen most of the ball, and the statistics agreed with them - possession being 81 percent.

The coach of Blau was happy with the game so far, but still wanted to change the line up. After 46 minutes, J. Fabritius came on for G. Reinwald. The head of S. Fischer connected with a corner kick after 71 minutes, and the ball ended up with M. Buday of Blau who blasted the ball into the net, making the score 4 - 0. J. Gardas's lack of experience almost gave PayU a goal after 77 minutes, but the shot went right into the keeper's arms. The Blau players could smell victory in the air. T. Konijnenbelt wasn't in a hurry to leave the field as he was substituted for E. Stockmar after 80 minutes. H. Oago didn't pace himself at all, and after a series of daring offensive runs he was too tired to help out in the defensive play. K. Bennetzen left the field with a smile on his face as he was substituted 84 minutes into the game, as his team was in the lead. L. Boyen was the replacement. Blau's D. Zimmermann saw his fine effort strike the top of the bar following some good work up the middle by his teammates after 89 minutes. Blau enjoyed most of the ball, as they maintained 81 percent of possession.

The most dominating Blau player was without a doubt R. Filderstadt. B. Korzym was a disappointment, however. N. Scherrer performed admirably for PayU. On the other hand, H. Kozimor's play was disheartening. The match ends 4 - 0.
