MATCHREPORT (DAY 19) - BALKAN BOYZ (Sz. 6 / Lvl6)




CL Quarterfinals, 1th leg: Balkan Boyz (Q55) 2 - 2 Malatyaspor (Q51,6)

Quick summary: This game was more then a quarterfinal, this game was more like a CL final! The game between The Balkan Boyz and Malatyaspor could be considered as the "clash of the titans" as both teams are "best of the best" looking to their Q and line-up.

Both teams lined up with the 4-4-2 N-diamond for a starter, but as the game went on the Turkish opposition went rogue and made a couple of tactical changes and formational ventures: from 2 ST's to 3ST's, from narrow to wide, from through the middle to down the flanks etc etc. We tried to "respond" but got ourselves in trouble instead, conceding 2 goals right after two substitutions. Awkward as it could sound, he got back into the game and has a slight advantage in the return on Saturday evening (away goal rule). Let's hope we manage to pull it of, otherwise this would be the second time we get our asses handled by a Turkish opposition
