24-07-2012 18.25
The crowd of 1994 turning up at
Preußen Arena today were greeted with some nasty showers of rain.
Henk Oosthout was the appointed referee with assistance provided by
Diego Mulero and
Roberto Avendaño.
Fortuna decided to use a 3-5-2 set up.
Starters: Wörndle - Karb, Raimann, Winisch - Roggenbau, Uhrin, Hafke, Grommes, Machalett - Zelelidis, Galatis.
Campania started off with a 5-5-0 lineup.
The following players had been chosen: Cornici - Burroni, Bellavista, Pinzi, Domedel, Brunialti - Mangili, Panato, Deutsch, Dinjar, Strippoli -.
Campania were determined to use their long shot ability.
After a fine move down the middle
D. Galatis nearly gave the home side a goal after 7 minutes. However the finishing shot went just wide.
V. Mangili was having a great game - if anything the pouring rain seemed to be spurring him on!
R. Pinzi hit the corner kick straight to the keeper, but it was mishandled, giving Campania's
R. Strippoli an easy chance to knock it in for 0 - 1.
Campania focused on finding shooting opportunities from distance and after 28 minutes
M. Deutsch fired off the big cannon, but the shot went sailing over the cross bar and into the car park.
The teams went for the halftime break at 0 - 1.
Fortuna claimed to have seen most of the ball, and the statistics agreed with them - possession being 68 percent.
58 minutes into the game,
R. Strippoli had to leave the pitch due to a knee injury. In came
S. Tagliabue.
The coach of Campania was happy with the game so far, but still wanted to change the line up. After 60 minutes,
R. Dehnert came on for
M. Dinjar.
G. Brunialti left the field with a smile on his face as he was substituted 75 minutes into the game, as his team was in the lead.
H. Pino was the replacement.
Just a few inches to the right, and the visitors could have had a goal 76 minutes into the match.
G. Burroni surely wishes he could do that free kick over again.
R. Pinzi could have put his team up another goal 82 minutes into the game, after a rush down the left, but his closing shot hit the post.
Campania's
M. Deutsch got himself booked for a foul.
When
H. Pino was badly injured by a couple of strong tackles after 84 minutes, Campania fans were unhappy to discover that it was not possible to make a substitution.
After 86 minutes,
G. Karb got through on the right and was very close to equalising for the home side, but didn't get the shot away.
A good free kick by
L. Grommes would have scored the equaliser for Fortuna, had it not been for the dramatic save by the visitors' goalkeeper.
Campania's
G. Burroni refused to leave the field after injuring his achilles tendon after 88 minutes.
Possession in this half belonged to Fortuna, who controlled the ball 64 percent of the time.
Most important Fortuna player was
B. Uhrin.
I. Wörndle was a disappointment, however.
Campania's best player was
S. Tagliabue.
N. Domedel turned in a dismal performance, however.
The match ends 0 - 1.
