Magyaren 3 - 3 pazannas (394158996)

The weather was pretty good, and a crowd of 1882 had shown up at Abbey Road for the match. Tomasz Zarzeczny was the appointed referee with assistance provided by Hidde Buurstee and Fred Kittel. Magyaren decided to use a 3-5-2 set up. Starters: Musello - Derweduwen, Tuoto, West - Cortit, De Jong, Ganty, Delplancq, Anulo - Scott, Stevelinck.

pazannas tactics involved an interesting 3-4-3 combination. Lineup: Cousin - Mets, Gamet, Marchand - Pradelle, Nicolas, Blaščík, Breton - Oudot, Briat, Koch.

pazannas's K. Breton showed his experience, anticipating the outcome of the opponent's defensive clearance and positioning himself perfectly to volley in an unstoppable shot from the edge of the box. 0 - 1. 38 minutes in, and Magyaren were able to score the equalising goal to make it 1 - 1 when L. Derweduwen picked up a pass coming in from the right and chipped it past the away team's keeper. After several obvious shirt pulling incidents, J. Cortit got himself booked. The manager of Magyaren was not happy. 41 minutes into the game, pazannas seemed a little tentative in their play as their organization fell to weak. 1 - 1 was the halftime score. Possession in this half belonged to Magyaren, who controlled the ball 64 percent of the time.

Despite his frustration resulting in the smashing of a few teacups, the coach of pazannas was able to get his message across, and raised pazannas's organisation to solid. 1 - 2 was the score with 48 minutes played, after K. Breton cut through the central defence and chipped home a goal for pazannas. Magyaren tried to even things up by sending a long ball towards the centrally placed strikers, but the visitors' defence got the best of this rather direct style of play. The crowd roared in delight as J. Scott finished off a spectacular series of passes through the middle to even the score for Magyaren 68 minutes into the match. 2 - 2. A corner kick created great disorder in the penalty area with a goal nearly scored by C. Nicolas. At last, pazannas's É. Marchand was able to backheel the ball in. 2 - 3. With the crowd on their feet chanting wildly, some great moves down the right hand side after 73 minutes gave Magyaren a wonderful opportunity to level the score, and J. Scott stepped up to the challenge. 3 - 3 Making his way up the middle 75 minutes into the match, J. Ganty almost managed to squeeze a goal past the visitors' keeper, but the alert B. Cousin blocked it to keep the score level. The opposing supporters gave the referee an earful when he only gave M. Briat from pazannas a yellow card after a mistimed challenge from behind 77 minutes into the game. That was far too lenient! A loud groan was heard from the fans of Magyaren, as C. Anulo left the pitch in too much pain to finish the match. H. Dumont took his place on the field. Magyaren claimed to have seen most of the ball, and the statistics agreed with them - possession being 64 percent.

Magyaren's best player was S. De Jong. H. Dumont turned in a dismal performance, however. B. Blaščík performed admirably for pazannas. É. Marchand was a disappointment, however. The match ends 3 - 3.
