[Coupe de Luxembourg] This F91 survives everything and wins the game of the year
Dudelange is even a little closer to the double after winning a crazy game (4-5) when he was led four times at Galgenberg.
From the outset, it seemed obvious from reading the composition of Fola that the dolphin of the F91 in the championship was going to seek, in the Cup, to bet on the same ingredients which had earned him to win the return match at the Jos- Nosbaum (2-3): the vivacity of his small sizes. And from the 2nd minute, on a well-worked cross from Simon, on recovering a first ball that was too long, Diallo popped up behind Cools to catapult in the back of the head. Offside says the refereeing trio!
It’s only a postponement for the Echois who throw their arrows by scratching a lot of balls before even having to enter the duels against the strong defensive block dudelangeois. On a foul by Cools 18 meters from goal, beaten by the liveliness of B. Correia, Mustafic lights a mine with an improbable trajectory which pierces Fox (1-0, 9th). The first quarter of an hour is red and white. Ouassiero sends another shot that runs along the goal (13th) and Mustafic claims a penalty that is discussed (14th).
Mustafic wins his remote duel with Sinani, but…
It could have been correctional for the future champion, who will still see Mr. Sabotic cancel a goal from Pascoal for an offside at the start of the action (31st), but he will, for his part, gain a little power . And it is under the impulse of Bettaieb that this will be done. For a double action in the 25th minute. Already, Sinani, who passed decisively on his left foot, failed to transmit to Muratovic, the only full axis, stumbling on the heel of a Delgado in the position of last defender. Then Bettaieb, who inherits the ball at the far post, shaves the opposite skylight, from the left.
It’s very weak, especially since the second period is also eschoise. A new free kick from Mustafic sees Muratovic reach out to thwart his still on target trajectory. Penalty, which the playmaker transforms into a force, full center (2-0, 35th). And while Cools and B. Correia went out to be stitched up following an air contact, a perfect stall from Diallo put Simon in orbit. He too will have two opportunities at the end of this race. But he will stumble once on Fox. The second, he will shave the skylight (45 + 1).
A second period of anthology
The needs of a mad run to get back to the score as much as Cools’ injury helped Carlos Fangueiro make the decision to switch to 4-4-2, injecting Hadji into the lead. The match then completely changes soul. Aggressive, the Dudelangeois will even remember in less than ten minutes: on a free kick at the corner of the surface, on a ball worked on the ground, Van den Kerkhof will pierce Cabral along his far post (2-1 , 54′), before Bojic, on a badly cleared corner, found the skylight with a sublime volley (2-2, 56′).
This meeting will then become completely crazy. On a lunar control of B. Correia full race, Caron is served full axis, alone in front of the goal. He misses his control and then wisely decides to set back for his passer, who concluded in force (3-2, 62nd). It doesn’t stop then anymore. Sinani, back to goal and transparent until then, turns to surprise Cabral on the small side, low to the ground (3-3, 64th). But almost immediately, Diallo shifts Simon, who finds a center dropped at the far post for the diving header from B. Correia (4-3, 70th).
Can the F91 recover from such a blow? Yes: Kirch launches Hadji who eliminates Cabral and scores from a very tight angle (4-4, 84′). The F91 is then denied a but in a very curious way on a header from Hadji, yet lost in the middle of a forest of players but the match-winner of the evening will deflect a last ball and Bettaieb pass in front of everyone to add a fifth but (4-5, 90th). Monumental.
