Day 6 - Palace Terriers report.
After struggling against their opponents in the 1st Leg, Palace Terriers found their mojo in this Cup Qualifying Round 2nd Leg match and ran away with the match to qualify for the next round with ease. Esneider Gil opened the scoring in the 3rd minute, but it took until the second half for the home side to really get going. Defender Dany Orfila struck a minute after the break, midfielder Tyberiy Yarich following before Gil completed his hat-trick with the last two goals. Terriers' win 5-0 and 7-2 on aggregate.
Palace Terriers came up against the League's super-heavyweight team in their away match this evening. Taking a leaf from their senior team's handbook, a 4-1-4-1 formation with hard defending, high press and offside kept the match goalless at the break. The home side then started their usual formation switching and during this period scored the first goal of the match. The Terriers Management decided to throw out the hard defending and went to 4-5-1V defensive with counter, low press and no offside, which almost immediately drew dividend with an equalising goal from defender Francesco Largou. Despite getting several chances from set pieces in the last ten minutes, Terriers could not get a vital final touch and the match ended in a 1-1 draw.
