Today's ref is Yuliy Drugov, who was born in Rossiya and belongs to the association of Kalmykia. He is known to be firm but fair, and he will take no nonsense from the players or managers. I wouldn't be surprised to see a few cards given out in today's match.

Min.2 That was a wasted chance by Dmitry Vlasov... 1-on-1 with Sergio Marinas and 5 yards from goal, and he's put it right into the stands where the FC Bezhetsk fans are sitting... you can hear the donkey brays ringing from around the stadium! Min.6, Vladimir Tikhonov loses the ball to Cesáreo Zamorano who takes advantage of the situation and charges down the field in opening up a scoring opportunity. Oh and he's wasted what could have been a real chance there. Min.7, the clearance by the defence was intercepted by Hans-Tore Kippe who tried to go past Ciprian Alecsandrescu but he failed miserably and loses possession. Min.9, Yuri Denisov sends a lovely pass to the feet of Andrei Akinfeev who races through the defence going 1-on-1 with the keeper.... beautiful goal! The referee's disallowed it; the linesman's flag was up. I don't think he got that one right, and the players agree. Andrei Akinfeev has lost his temper and wants to go have words with the assistant. He's having to be restrained by his team mates. You can understand his frustration. Min.11, Vladimir Tikhonov of Mirton shoots but hits the bar. He's got a crack at the rebound all alone in front of Sergio Marinas... how did he miss that?! Unbelievable. Min.29, Yuri Denisov shoots from distance, but it will take something special to beat Sergio Marinas who gathers it with ease. Min.36, Gooooool !!!, FC Bezhetsk score. Great finish by Hans-Tore Kippe after receiving a great pass from the right sideline, he brought it down and banged it home past Marcin Kupcewicz 's reach. Making it 0-1. The attendance spectators were disappointed, they couldn’t believe how Hans-Tore Kippe scored first for the away team and how things became difficult. Min.41, Goooaaal !!!, Esteban Villafuentes makes a great run down the righthand touchline, stepping past 2 defenders, before making a lovely pass right through the centre. Fyodor Arshavin connects wiith the pass and nutmegs the keeper! What a goal! This player not only drinks like Gazza, but he can play like him too! The scores now stand at 0-2. Spectators couldn't believe what they were seeing; even in their worst nightmares they couldn't imagine this overwhelming score. A lot of them were quiet but others began to encourage his team. Worse things have been seen.

Min.45, the refs blown up for half time before the allocated injury time has been played and now he's sprinting off down the tunnel, guess he's been caught short. The current score is 0-2. The home team had 66 %. possession of the ball.

Min 46, home team are attacking via the by the center and protecting their goal via the by the center and the left touchline. The away team is focusing its attacks on the by the right side and its defense by the center. Min.53, Dmitry Vlasov cannot free himself from Filiberto Verdeces and loses the ball before he has the chance to send a cross in. Vladislao Ferreiro takes advantage of the situation to start a counter attack down the touchline. This could end up in a good scoring opportunity... Min.54, the counterattack was led by Hans-Tore Kippe. He tries to lob the keeper who has left his area however the ball goes just wide of the post. Min.64, how rubbish of Andrei Akinfeev. Sofron Baranov put the ball on a plate for him and instead of hitting it with his right foot it cannoned of his left shin wide of the goal. Hmmm, why is he playing in this team? Min.72, high kick of Mirton after a wonderful forward pass through the defense by Yuri Denisov to Vladimir Tikhonov couldn't finish off that great move by Mirton. Vladimir Tikhonov protested about the shirt pulling he was the victim of. The ref is taking no bull today and Vladimir Tikhonov is booked for complaining. Min.77, Andrei Akinfeev has got some magic feet and shows us all his trickery to get into a great position in the box, unfortunately for him, he's a complete donkey and tripped over his twinkle toes and face planted the ball, which proceeds to roll out harmlessly for a goal kick. Min.78, Ippolit Malafeev spots Hans-Tore Kippe breaking free from his marker, but his attempted pass into the space in front is easily intercepted by the defence. Min.82, Yuri Denisov sent a long ball towards Andrei Akinfeev however Sergio Marinas decides to come from his area and calmly hoof it back up the field. Min.84, Gooooool !!! Hans-Tore Kippe scores... After receiving a great cross from the right touchline, Hans-Tore Kippe controlled the ball and left Marcin Kupcewicz behind. He then rolled the ball into the empty goal. Now the scoreboard shows 0-3. The fans can't believe this result. Several fans were waving the symbolic white tissues... The manager should watch his head seriously. Unfortunately for them it's not the only problem... several fans are already leaving the stadium and the match isn't over yet! Min.88, Goal !!!, Esteban Villafuentes puts in a beautifuly weighted cross from the right hand side of the penalty area. Hans-Tore Kippe hits the ball on the volley with a shot for which the keeper, Marcin Kupcewicz, has no answer. The score now stands at 0-4.

Min.90, The whistle has been blown, ending the game at 0-4. The home team had 65 %. possession of the ball.
