Tiburones Negros - Gargoyles 0 - 7

Date: 12/4/2003 at 01:00
MatchID: 13272298
Arena: El Tanque Del Tiburónes
Crowd: 7212

Overcast weather free of rain made for a crowd turnout of 7212 at El Tanque Del Tiburónes today. Tiburones tactics involved an interesting 3-4-3 combination. They fielded: Way - Greenwood, Winslow, Madden - Harbin, Allen, Williams, Giner - Johnson, Juarez, Hensley.

Gargoyles tactics involved an interesting 3-4-3 combination. Lineup: Kullenhult - Blackburn, Morgansson, Langeland - Öbratt, Mccormick, Michelsson, Ekmo - Pascoal, bin Selamat, Ball.

Tiburones mostly ignored the flanks in favour of attacks in the middle. After 13 minutes Gargoyless Cornelius Ball made his way through the middle, putting the visitors up 0 - 1. The visitors Jami Michelsson took advantage of an error due to a misunderstanding between the home side´s goalie and full backs in the 28:th minute. 0 - 2 for Gargoyles. Fine winger Karl Ekmo made one of his many passes from the wing into the middle in the 34:th minute. Cornelius Ball went to the air and hit the ball firmly with his forehead for 0 - 3. By now Gargoyles were drawing the troops back in order to defend their lead. Tiburones seemed to suffer a certain amount of confusion about the organization of the team. 0 - 3 was the half-time score. The fortyfive minutes were dominated by Gargoyles, with an impressive 61 percent possession of the ball.

Tiburones -coach had an extra briefing during the break, and after that his players looked a lot more organized. The visitors Hafiz bin Selamat took advantage of an error due to a misunderstanding between the home side´s goalie and full backs in the 65:th minute. 0 - 4 for Gargoyles. Gargoyles´s Hafiz bin Selamat received a play slashing through the home side´s defense in the 81st minute, chipping it past the keeper scoring 0 - 5. The home crowd was not pleased with that one. After 87 minutes a combination in the middle resulted in a through ball for Even Langeland who increased Gargoyles´s lead to 0 - 6. Tiburones appeared unsure on how to play. The visitors Cornelius Ball took advantage of an error due to a misunderstanding between the home side´s goalie and full backs in the 88:th minute. 0 - 7 for Gargoyles. At that, Cornelius Ball was noted down for a hat trick. After 88 minutes Nicolas Harbin could have reduced had it not been for an excellent block by the visitors keeper Torbjörn Kullenhult. Tiburones had obvious problems in finding their positions. Gargoyles held the ball, with a clear 66 percent possession rate.

Tiburones´s best player was Michel Way. Nicolas Harbin was a disappointment, however. The most dominating Gargoyles player was without a doubt Torbjörn Kullenhult. Keith Mccormick on the other hand, had a terrible day. The match ends 0 - 7.

Next week I have L_REDSKINS in cup play. He doesn't look that good, but my best IM is in wretched form right now. Also they are playing against the team that is #1 in their division this week. If they are serious about their division, I should be able to get a leg-up in cup play.
