taraspor 0 - 9 Selvi (392373171)

6329 fans braved the pouring rain at taraspor mabedi. Silviu Mihai was the appointed referee with assistance provided by Lembit Noormägi and Berthold Neumann. A 4-4-2 alignment was the formation of choice for taraspor. The following players took the field: Nayır - Manzanaro, Acla, Kabbaj, Sükan - Azevedo, Varano, Omak, Bogusławski - Zorrilla, Saka.

Selvi had chosen a strategic 4-3-3 formation. Lineup: Arias - Zeycan, Hüdavendigaroğlu, Aladal, Berke - Petrel, Marifet, Payır - Havurinne, Sabaté, Bertucci.

taraspor decided to play creatively. The counterattack by Selvi resulted in a free kick that H. Zeycan bent under the crossbar - 0 - 1! H. Zeycan increased Selvi's lead to 0 - 2 with a superb free kick strike that flew in just under the far top corner. Ö. Payır did not have a good day today, often losing his footing on the muddy pitch. After 21 minutes, Selvi's S. Aladal burst through the central defence and let loose a cannonball of a shot, scoring for 0 - 3. At this point, it was obvious that the players of Selvi lowered the tempo and became more defensively oriented. 23 minutes into the game, S. Aladal had to leave the pitch due to a knee injury. In came R. Başkan. The visitors' H. Zeycan took advantage of a misunderstanding between the home side's goalie and centre backs 24 minutes into the match. 0 - 4 for Selvi. That made three goals for H. Zeycan and he was marked down for the hat trick. A defender managed to keep the ball from crossing the goal-line after a curling shot coming in from the right from R. Başkan after 30 minutes, and prevented Selvi from going up another goal. The teams went for the halftime break at 0 - 4. Possession in the forty-five minutes was dominated by Selvi, with 77 percent of the ball.

The coach of Selvi was happy with the game so far, but still wanted to change the line up. After 46 minutes, J. Taivalmäki came on for M. Hüdavendigaroğlu. The unexpected cross pass from Selvi's T. Havurinne after 53 minutes opened up the defence and was received by C. Bertucci who finished off for 0 - 5. C. Bertucci received a delicate pass through the home side's central defence after 56 minutes, and chipped it past the flailing keeper to score making it 0 - 6. The Selvi fans went wild, whilst the home fans started to think about leaving early. A drive down the left side allowed H. Zeycan to get in close and score another goal for Selvi after 65 minutes, taking the score to 0 - 7. After 76 minutes a combination in the middle resulted in a through ball for H. Zeycan who increased Selvi's lead to 0 - 8. The game was characterised by rough play and many physical challenges on the wet field, but İ. Saka showed great heart and had a good game. After 80 minutes, an incisive pass through the middle gave T. Havurinne a chance to increase the lead for Selvi, and he did not disappoint. The score was then 0 - 9. Selvi had most of the ball, with 78 percent of possession.

Most important taraspor player was M. Zorrilla. On the other hand, F. Nayır's play was disheartening. A. Sabaté performed admirably for Selvi. R. Başkan turned in a dismal performance, however. The match ends 0 - 9.
