Tureluur 1 - 3 Calisante (393047719)

30000 punters turned up at De Boomgaard, and despite threatening clouds on the horizon, no rain came. Walther Busnelli was the appointed referee with assistance provided by Don Timmermans and Jürgen Eit. Tureluur decided to use a 3-5-2 set up. The following players took the field: Borscheid - Matějovský, Schol, Olthof - Voorthuizen, Wiggelaar, Ringhio, Vanenburg, van der Heyden - Lucchi, Suiskens.

Calisante had chosen a strategic 3-5-2 formation. The following players had been chosen: Kwan Sun - Harbiye, Truman, Postma - MacDaniell, Zamir, Haga, Durruti, Thycosen - Ablanedo, Greiner.

Today, Tureluur's strategy involved concentrating on the flanks for their attacks. Calisante saw most attack opportunities on the wings. Tureluur fans held their breath as A. Voorthuizen scampered down the left side. He successfully avoided all challenges and cracked home the shot for 1 - 0! Calisante had to make a substitution after 9 minutes. A. Harbiye limped off the field and was replaced by P. Gerhold. F. Durruti finished off a quick charge from the left of the field by chipping the ball just past the home side's keeper, making the score 1 - 1 10 minutes into the match. This was a good period for the visitors, with several opportunities to take the lead, particularly when N. Greiner slipped through the defence on the right to come up alone against E. Borscheid, but the home side's keeper showed his lightning reflexes. 32 minutes into the game, R. Truman almost gave the visitors the lead, as he clipped a delicate lob over the keeper, but the ball glanced harmlessly off the crossbar. With 36 minutes played L. Matějovský almost put the home team one ahead on a cross coming in from the right, but the shot went just wide. Halftime score was 1 - 1. Possession in the forty-five minutes was dominated by Calisante, with 61 percent of the ball.

Calisante took the lead after 47 minutes making the score 1 - 2. N. Greiner placed the ball out of reach for the home side's keeper after a fine move, coming in from the left. Calisante increased their lead after 54 minutes when E. Zamir broke through on the right, upping the score to 1 - 3, much to the home crowd's dismay. Tureluur's J. Ringhio found himself alone on the left side 80 minutes into the match and laid down a perfect shot - right into the arms of the keeper! The coach of Calisante was happy with the game so far, but still wanted to change the line up. After 85 minutes, S. Labarca came on for F. Haga. As the captain was no longer on the pitch, N. Greiner took over the role of being the Calisante captain. Content with how the game was proceeding, the Calisante coach let H. Childs replace M. MacDaniell after 88 minutes. Calisante enjoyed most of the ball, as they maintained 60 percent of possession.

The most dominating Tureluur player was without a doubt L. Olthof. However, E. Borscheid made a disastrous appearance. Calisante's top performer was clearly E. Zamir. H. Childs on the other hand, had a terrible day. The match ends 1 - 3.
