ANFIELD
Spectators: 161 (Terracing: 121, Seating: 37, VIP seats: 3) The mood of the audience was pleasant when Felix Heyer made the kick off which started today's match. In the 20th match minute, FC LIVERPOOL was awarded a freekick, the ball was picked up by Mick Mortimer to maneuver through the defense. Philip Kennedy kicked well hit freekick during the 22nd minute of the match. Felix Heyer sent away a hard shot on goal in the 25th minute, but the ball went just over the crossbar and out. A very good chance. In the 27th minute Geoff Colley shot on, it seemed, an open goal, but Sigmar Graf saw the ball coming and threw himself on it before it passed the goal line. After 30 played minutes FC LIVERPOOL got a freekick which was hit by Abraham Gilchrist. After some careless play in the Green Aaper Forestibexes defense, Kev Basham kicked a shot that curved into the net to the right of Sigmar Graf. The Green Aaper Forestibexes fans voiced their displeasure as they felt that Sigmar Graf should have stopped the shot. In the 37th match minute, Green Aaper Forestibexes was awarded a freekick, the ball was picked up by Rudolf Högl to maneuver through the defense. If Tobias Coppenrath had kept his shot down it would have been a goal in the 42nd minute. The ball went over the crossbar instead. After a rather tough play, Green Aaper Forestibexes's Ludger Hempel got a free kick in the 47th minute. The score stood at 1-1 when the half time whistle went. Both sets of players seemed reasonably pleased with how the match was going.

53 minutes into the game, Geoff Colley cracked a shot to the right of the goalkeeper, 2-1. Sigmar Graf was not in position, and could only watch the ball fly in. After 56 played minutes FC LIVERPOOL got a freekick which was hit by Philip Kennedy. After some fancy dribbling in the 58th minute, Felix Heyer managed to get in a good position for a shot. Green Aaper Forestibexes's supporters rose to their feet, but Felix Heyer was a bit off balance and shot the ball just wide of the left post. Justin Beevers breathed a sigh of relief and went to take the goal kick. FC LIVERPOOL's goalkeeper couldn't reach when Rudolf Högl 59 minutes into the game got a good kick on the ball which found its way into goal just inside left pole. 2-2. FC LIVERPOOL's defense didn't have a chance, in the 64th minute, when Rudolf Högl scored to the left of an out of position Justin Beevers, making the score, 2-3. A collision led to FC LIVERPOOL getting a freekick after 69 minutes play. Simon Burbeary hit a great ball. In the 70th minute, Ludger Hempel sent off a long shot on goal, but the shot was nowhere near the goal and FC LIVERPOOL's Justin Beevers didn't even have to move. Sigmar Graf showed his good apprehension of the play when he made a fantastic save on a shot from Kev Basham, who was totally free with the ball in the 74th minute. The crowd rose to their feet as Green Aaper Forestibexes's Rudolf Högl slotted home a wonderful shot that went in to the left of Justin Beevers. That made the score 2-4 after 77 minutes of play. When Tobias Coppenrath came up free with the goalie in the 80th minute, the Green Aaper Forestibexes 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 Tobias Coppenrath couldn't finish the play. Lothar Janecek hit a great freekick 81 minutes into the match. Abraham Gilchrist was probably a little too eager to shoot when he, in the 82nd played minute, shot the ball from way out. The shot was hard, but the ball flew wide of the goal. The audience thought a goal was coming when Rudolf Högl got free with Justin Beevers in the 85th minute, but the goalkeeper managed to catch the ball with a huge effort. In the 88th minute of the match, Sascha Berkenheger tried to roll the ball into the goal by the right post, but Justin Beevers saw his intentions and got control of the ball before it passed the line. Justin Beevers was a little too slow when Rudolf Högl got a fine hit on the ball which went right into the goal in the 91st minute. The score was now 2-5. After 95 minutes, Ludger Hempel mouthed his way into the referee's book. The tension between the Green Aaper Forestibexes and the FC LIVERPOOL players grew even worse after the yellow card. Abraham Gilchrist walked up to take care of the penalty kick. He was aiming for the top corner, but the ball went just outside the post.
