JAS 4 - 1 Arkitekt (393965723)

The weather was pretty good, and a crowd of 65000 had shown up at Sin City Superdome for the match. Eelke van Tunen was the appointed referee with assistance provided by Sulayman Ulathah and Rodhan Wilmot. JAS tactics involved an interesting 3-5-2 combination. Lineup: Arnold - Radich, Guinaudeau, Urban - Boshnjaku, Reginato, Rask Thomsen, Larsen, Sanz - Soukop, Monteiro.

Arkitekt decided to use a 4-4-2 set up. The following players had been chosen: De Falco - Neisser-Schoenthoner, Frewert, Mårtensson, Monich - Bucur, MacPaul, Langelund, Hovi - Ryssy, Remstal.

Arkitekt clearly had decided to counter-attack when they could. 23 minutes had elapsed when a great chance for JAS to take the lead after a good cross from the right found I. Soukop alone with the keeper, but he chipped it to the wrong side of the post. After some beautiful movement down the left wing, I. Soukop scored for JAS putting them ahead 1 - 0, after 30 minutes. JAS's F. Monteiro saw his fine effort strike the top of the bar following some good work up the middle by his teammates after 33 minutes. After 34 minutes, V. Larsen put JAS ahead 2 - 0 when he rose to head in a cross from the right wing. A great save by keeper L. De Falco after 39 minutes kept the visitors in the game after A. Guinaudeau struck from the left with a real cannonball. Things were deteriorating for the away team as JAS scored another to make it 3 - 0 after a left side attack resulted in a goal for G. Reginato after 40 minutes. Confident in their lead, JAS's players relaxed and focused more on defending the lead than increasing it. 3 - 0 was the halftime score. Possession in the forty-five minutes was dominated by JAS, with 64 percent of the ball.

D. Urban increased JAS's lead to 4 - 0 with a penalty spot cannonball. After 53 minutes, E. Monich sent the corner kick right to R. Neisser-Schoenthoner who headed it sharply past the keeper. 4 - 1! 77 minutes in, E. Monich made an incredible run up the middle and nearly reduced the home side's lead, but T. Arnold refused to let the ball slip by him. JAS had most of the ball, with 65 percent of possession.

JAS's best player was I. Soukop. V. Radich turned in a dismal performance, however. K. Langelund performed admirably for Arkitekt. S. Mårtensson was a disappointment, however. The match ends 4 - 1.
