Pacifico 1 - 0 Stahnsdorf (380280489)

The 17955 spectators at Estadio Luis Recondo were in for an afternoon of sunshine. Nils Hierl was the appointed referee with assistance provided by Ryszard Zieleźnik and Albert Montal. Pacifico had chosen a strategic 4-4-2 formation. Lineup: Marzo - Baltasar, Mariaud, Alférez, Tze An - Moizan, Jastrup, Caralt, Gunnarsson - Bailey, Beilin.

Stahnsdorf started off with a 3-5-2 lineup. They fielded: Cadalso - de Roode, Skovfoged, Iser - Chevalier, Goycolea, Michael, Plaza, Hetzel - Famparski, Hürol.

P. Alférez sailed high above the opponents as he headed in a corner kick from A. Caralt after 27 minutes of play, making the score 1 - 0. R. Chevalier came close to levelling the score 29 minutes into the game, as he was set up with a through ball coming in from the left, but his shot hit the post. I. de Roode made a run for the goal 42 minutes into the game but the home team's left back managed to sort the situation out in the end. 1 - 0 was the halftime score. Possession in the forty-five minutes was dominated by Stahnsdorf, with 58 percent of the ball.

The referee showed Stahnsdorf's A. Famparski the yellow card after a particularly nasty challenge. Pacifico's P. Bailey went down after a savage challenge, but could continue playing after some medical attention. The home side's A. Caralt came close to extending the lead 56 minutes into the game. His shot came in from the right hand side but J. Cadalso managed to save it with an unbelievable reaction stop. W. Tze An found it hard to catch his breath today in the stifling heat. It might be a while before the fans see Stahnsdorf's S. Michael again, after he had to leave the field in great distress at the 71 minute mark. He was replaced by M. Dăscălescu. 74 minutes into the game, Pacifico had difficulty finding their positions and their organisation dropped to solid. The visitors almost came back with an equaliser 76 minutes into the match after a good combination down the middle, but when M. Dăscălescu tried to finish the attack, he couldn't deliver the shot hard enough to seriously challenge the keeper. Stahnsdorf's R. Chevalier had to watch the rest of the game from the sidelines, after twisting his ankle with 76 minutes having been played. T. Blankendaal was the replacement. With 80 minutes played, the visitors could have drawn level after I. de Roode came through the middle, but his kick went wide. Stahnsdorf claimed to have seen most of the ball, and the statistics agreed with them - possession being 56 percent.

Pacifico's top performer was clearly P. Alférez. J. Moizan turned in a dismal performance, however. I. Plaza performed admirably for Stahnsdorf. I. de Roode on the other hand, had a terrible day. The match ends 1 - 0.
