A frustrating night for Norden at home.

The two teams who believe they can finish top 5 this season face each other in Scandinavia. After a difficult night where they lost 2-0 against the title contenders Vienna, Roma switched to a back 4 where we saw McRoyale in midfield this time and Harry Viener, Maccarone started at CB again. On the other hand, home team Norden played their regular 3-2-1-4 with star players Bendtner and Tate in attack, and the Brazilian Tito right behind in midfield alongside Arif Nazhim.
The first big chance came at the 13th minute where Roma backline passed the ball to attacking mid Freulerista who immediately gave the ball to Lucca Rizzo, then the Italian veteran flicked the ball from his left foot and scored a volley from the edge of the box.
At the 26th minute Norden made a quick comeback, Loørd Bendtner gave a short pass to Andrew Tate, who dribbled past the Roma midfield and scored a solo goal from outside the box. Norden dominated the first 45 minutes of the game where they had 6 attempts on goal. Andrew Tate had a frustrating first half where he missed 3 golden chances from close range.
Absolutely nothing happened in the second half, Norden were unable to finish their 6 goalscoring chances on the other hand Lucca Rizzo's 13th minute goal was the only shot of the game from Roma.
