Vignolese 4 - 0 villaggio (381991691)

Dark skies made the crowd of 11440 at L' Inferno Vignolese a little nervous, but the rain held off. Gernot Dergias was the appointed referee with assistance provided by Soni Lindman and Dimitris van Aardenne. A 3-5-2 alignment was the formation of choice for Vignolese. The following players had been chosen: Esener - Refaelov, Galo, Beckett - Azzoni, Erdem, Canbay, Jalif, Havsteen-Mikkelsen - van der Smissen, Pequeno.

villaggio tactics involved an interesting 4-4-2 combination. Lineup: Calahorra - Tsypin, Putica, Soeira, Bartlhuber - Levy, Chaim, Arrobbio, Ascencio - Gülerdam, Łacina.

Today, villaggio's strategy involved concentrating on the flanks for their attacks. Vignolese created a good opportunity to score 11 minutes into the match when P. Beckett's hooked ball from the left created a scuffle in front of the goal, and the visitors' defenders had a hard time clearing the ball. Vignolese broke through on the left 19 minutes into the game, with P. Beckett firing in from an acute angle to give the home side a 1 - 0 lead. A speedy charge from the left side of the field increased the lead of Vignolese to 2 - 0 as J. Pequeno finished it off competently, firing in from an acute angle. Vignolese put themselves up 3 - 0 when S. Galo broke through on the right, leaving the entire defence trailing in his wake. By now, the players in Vignolese felt that victory was guaranteed and began to play it safe, focusing on defence and not risking too much going forward. A scuffle developed as players from both sides clashed following a tussle in the centre of the field 31 minutes into the match. After regaining order and consulting his linesman, the referee called villaggio's T. Bartlhuber to one side and produced a red card for the player. A great save by keeper F. Calahorra after 32 minutes kept the visitors in the game after M. van der Smissen struck from the left with a real cannonball. Halftime score was 3 - 0. Possession in this half belonged to Vignolese, who controlled the ball 70 percent of the time.

Vignolese's Ş. Erdem swung in a good chance from the left, but the visitors' defence were able to clear the ball. Vignolese's Ş. Erdem increased the lead to 4 - 0, after he saw his shot go between the legs of the advancing goalkeeper following some good play down the right wing after 76 minutes. Vignolese enjoyed most of the ball, as they maintained 68 percent of possession.

Vignolese's top performer was clearly J. Pequeno. On the other hand, A. Esener's play was disheartening. Most important villaggio player was K. Gülerdam. R. Arrobbio was a disappointment, however. The match ends 4 - 0.
