A scorching day at Stick a pony in me pocket, where 4259 spectators were in place for today's match. Hugo Oscar Soria was the appointed referee with assistance provided by José Vila and Paul Friedrich Theiner. Backhanders tactics involved an interesting 3-4-3 combination. Lineup: Crane - Mackie, Yeong Ching, Silva - Madeira, Airlie, Kværndrup, Sture - Vilaça, Durán, Sayago.

A 3-4-3 alignment was the formation of choice for emas. They fielded: Wegman - Stoian, van der Maas, Raffin - Boter, Wieseneder, Vecchia, Oleksiejuk - Az, Barrière, Maciejewski.

emas mostly ignored the flanks in favour of their ability to attack in the middle. The home side put themselves ahead 1 - 0 after 18 minutes courtesy of a breakthrough from A. Vilaça, who scored with a stunning volley following a cross from the right wing. After 19 minutes, emas used a short break in the game to take new instructions from their coach. The emas coach was desperate to reverse his team's fortunes in the game, and ordered his team to change strategy. With 20 minutes played, Backhanders put themselves up 2 - 0 when the visiting defenders lost the ball to I. Madeira, who came up from the left and proceeded to coolly round the keeper and knock the ball home. After 20 minutes, emas switched N. Barrière with H. Kiptoo, hoping for a quick impact on the pitch. Backhanders managed to extend their lead to 3 - 0 when F. Durán cut in neatly from the left side and struck a fine shot past the away team's goalkeeper. S. Raffin of emas received a yellow card after 28 minutes for unsportsmanlike behaviour. A magnificent combination in the middle resulted in Backhanders's A. Vilaça increasing the lead to 4 - 0. After this, you could see that the players of Backhanders were more interested in killing time than scoring more goals. B. Kværndrup should probably have put his team up another goal after 33 minutes, but some great goalkeeping by T. Wegman kept the visitors in the game. 4 - 0 was the score after the first half. Possession in the forty-five minutes was dominated by Backhanders, with 60 percent of the ball.

A. Sture was the first to reach the corner kick, but his header was blocked by the keeper. However, Backhanders's A. Vilaça managed to get hold of the rebound and tucked the ball into the empty net. 5 - 0 That was his third goal of the match - a hat trick for A. Vilaça. It was almost a goal for emas following H. Kiptoo's good header after a corner, it went just over the bar though. A speedy charge from the left side of the field increased the lead of Backhanders to 6 - 0 as A. Vilaça finished it off competently, firing in from an acute angle. Things were deteriorating for the away team as Backhanders scored another to make it 7 - 0 after a left side attack resulted in a goal for P. Sayago after 84 minutes. Possession in this half belonged to Backhanders, who controlled the ball 56 percent of the time.

Backhanders's top performer was clearly F. Durán. I. Mackie on the other hand, had a terrible day. The most dominating emas player was without a doubt S. Az. However, T. Wegman made a disastrous appearance. The match ends 7 - 0.
