U18 World League

Olympia Stadion
Spectators: 7620 (Terracing: 5716, Seating: 1752, VIP seats: 152) Dark clouds were building up when the players entered the field. None of the them looked very eager to play. Alfonso Montrell started the match with the kick off. The audience thought a goal was coming when Dëfrim Xhagolli got free with Constantino Formerio in the 5th minute, but the goalkeeper managed to catch the ball with a huge effort. An unexpectedly hard shot by Paulino Xacintu in the 18th minute of play forced UnikKatiL Bloody Alboz's goalkeeper Enjel Zogu to throw himself to the left, to be able to save the ball. Klime Kumbulla fired away a screaming shot towards the goal in the 19th minute, but the shot went just over the crossbar without Constantino Formerio having to interfere. UnikKatiL Bloody Alboz's Festim Piqoni was standing unmarked in front of the goal when he, in the 21st play minute, got the ball and easily drilled it into the goal. In the 23rd minute, Hajdar Xhemollari hit a crossing free kick to the open man running down the field. Cristo Orland kicked well hit freekick during the 25th minute of the match. After 26 minutes of play, UnikKatiL Bloody Alboz's Festim Piqoni made it 2-0 when he simply outclassed the defender marking him and hit a curling shot into the right side of the net. Constantino Formerio was left in no man's land by his defense there! After 30 played minutes Centenario Bohemio got a freekick which was hit by Alfonso Montrell. After some fancy dribbling in the 30th minute, Klime Kumbulla managed to get in a good position for a shot. UnikKatiL Bloody Alboz's supporters rose to their feet, but Klime Kumbulla was a bit off balance and shot the ball just wide of the left post. Constantino Formerio breathed a sigh of relief and went to take the goal kick. 36 minutes into the game, Klime Kumbulla recieved a splendid long ball, split the defenders, and gently placed the ball to the left of Constantino Formerio. Klime Kumbulla showed that you don't have to tear a hole in the net to score, 3-0. When Nebi Kaliaj came up free with the goalie in the 44th minute, the UnikKatiL Bloody Alboz fans jumped to their feet. But the shot missed the goal by a fraction of an inch, and the fans sat back down disappointed that Nebi Kaliaj couldn't finish the play. 45 minutes into the match, Festim Piqoni had an open shot that he just couldn't miss and scored to the right of Constantino Formerio. Centenario Bohemio's manager could be seen yelling to the referee that Festim Piqoni was offside, but the referee ignored the protest. 5-0. The away team players looked dejected as the walked off the pitch at half time. They had fought hard, but were still losing 5-0.

Both teams looked relatively alert before the second half when the referee blew his whistle to tell Festim Piqoni to make the kick off. When Hajdar Xhemollari was, once again, overly rough in his play he received his second yellow card and was ordered off the ground. 63 minutes had been played. After 64 played minutes UnikKatiL Bloody Alboz got a freekick which was hit by Hajdar Xhemollari. Imet Meidani received a nice pass in the box and took a hard shot in the 66th minute. Constantino Formerio tensed up and prepared to dive, but the shot went over the goal with him having to interfere. Nebi Kaliaj sent away a hard shot on goal in the 73rd minute, but the ball went just over the crossbar and out. A very good chance. If Festim Piqoni had kept his shot down it would have been a goal in the 75th minute. The ball went over the crossbar and out instead. Centenario Bohemio's Alfonso Montrell got a good chance for a goal in the 88th minute, but he totally mistimed the shot and it went over the crossbar. 91 minutes into the match, UnikKatiL Bloody Alboz's Imet Meidani sent off a blazing shot straight on target, a shot that Constantino Formerio narrowly saved just below the crossbar.
