“A very even match between two heavily decapitated teams.
9 players on each side, proved that their first matches had taken their toll.
The Sailors received the kick-off, but a eager Lyon team blitzed downfield
catching the ball, on Sailors side - and shortly after Cédric Bréchet could score to 1-0.
Thus Sailors once more received this time driving slowly upfield in a cage, and eventhough it was broken up, and some vicious fighting began, with the ballcarrier being sacked, Sailors Hugo Larson scored the equalizer. 1-1 at half time.
As Lyon Received, Syshavn Sailors anticipated their offence and made a perfect defensive line, putting a man on 7 of Lyon´s players - only leaving 2 free to operate behind their own lines.
Some blocking began, and after a small stalemate Cédric Bréchet got through with three protectors - however a blitz on him resulted in the blitzer being knocked over and a free run for Cédric.
This score ended the match, as fans invaded the pitch and the judge decided to stop the match. Much to Sydhavns dissapointment as they had a ½ half to score with 9 vs 8 players.
Both coaches were satisfied with the fact that they have a full team for their next match.”
