previous 8/10 next 10/10  Real 0 - 8 Priests (393294987)

The crowd of 1020 turning up at Raúl Gonzalez Blanco today were greeted with some nasty showers of rain. Lukáš Krištof was the appointed referee with assistance provided by Torquato Iannizzi and Ismael Ramírez. Real started off with a 2-5-3 lineup. Starters: Meazzi - Nemes, Reding - Medar, Torbicki, Wyszomierski, Visser, Dammann - Bunescu, Soto Carvajal, Foresti.

Priests decided to use a 4-5-1 set up. The following players took the field: Živec - Zalesky, España, Doerner-Turk, Aşir - Meckrodt, Potysz, Interdonato, George, Silva Cardoso - Stigborg.

Real mostly relied on their long range shooting ability. The wings were the focus of most of Priests's attacks today. P. Pintér was called on to replace Priests's L. George after 10 minutes following a nasty collision. P. Foresti did not have a good day today, often losing his footing on the muddy pitch. Players in Priests heard their coach's words ringing in their ears and steered their central attacks to the wings instead. The guests took the lead 16 minutes into the match, after a right-side attack resulted in B. Silva Cardoso scoring to make it 0 - 1. P. Pintér of Priests took advantage of a mistake on the home side's right after 19 minutes which increased the away team's lead to 0 - 2. Real's P. Foresti got himself booked for a foul. With 31 minutes played, a quick exchange of passes on the left wing freed A. Stigborg of Priests to slip through the defence and score another goal for the visitors. That made the score 0 - 3. 35 minutes into the match, the visitors put themselves ahead 0 - 4 as A. Stigborg finished off an attack from the left with a spectacular scissors kick. At this point, it was obvious that the players of Priests lowered the tempo and became more defensively oriented. Halftime score was 0 - 4. Possession in this half belonged to Priests, who controlled the ball 76 percent of the time.

A drive down the left side allowed A. Stigborg to get in close and score another goal for Priests after 60 minutes, taking the score to 0 - 5. That was his third goal of the match - a hat trick for A. Stigborg. B. Silva Cardoso increased the visitors' lead by putting a volley away after a pass from the right. 0 - 6. 75 minutes into the game, Š. Živec had to leave the pitch due to a knee injury. In came T. Zinner. 81 minutes into the match, P. Pintér came through the middle and almost added to his team's lead, but the shot went wide. 82 minutes into the game, Priests were awarded a penalty and H. Aşir was able to increase the visitors' lead to 0 - 7 rolling the ball in by the right post. P. Torbicki had a hard time on the waterlogged pitch - his trademark technique was nowhere in sight today. The visitors' P. Pintér took advantage of a misunderstanding between the home side's goalie and centre backs 87 minutes into the match. 0 - 8 for Priests. Priests enjoyed most of the ball, as they maintained 79 percent of possession.

Real's best player was S. Bunescu. N. Meazzi was a disappointment, however. The most dominating Priests player was without a doubt A. España. However, T. Zinner made a disastrous appearance. The match ends 0 - 8.
