Match Summary

Vienna rebound from early shock
By: Ray Porter

LP Kerberos won their last five matches and scored the most goals in the league campaign until this matchday, naturally hopes were high that they would be the team to finally beat Vienna, ending their 8 game winning streak. Both teams lined up in their favored 433 and, 4231 formations. This game marked the reunion of the former captains of Deportivo Madrid, Jethro (Kerberos), Mungo Scruyazelf and Moritz Hoffmann (both Vienna).

Kerberos came into the first half with vigor, something Vienna didn't match in the beginning. Whilst not getting attacked by Mungo Scruyazelf or Sargeant, Zarksh Silva sends in a cross towards the five yard zone which would find the head of Jethro, who headed it in over Do-Yun Kang. The North Korean seemed completely out of depth in this situation, making Jethro the first of the former Madrid (Vice-)Captains to strike.

It took some time for Vienna to regroup, but in the 30th minute, Bendtner found Rahman with a through-ball which would see the South African through on goal. He had no trouble scoring against Hepatitis. The game would go into half-time as a 1-1 draw.

But it wouldn't stay level for long: Vienna kept pressuring Kerberos from kick-off and won the ball back high up the pitch. At the end of a little combination, Dos Reis found Hoffmann on the edge of the box, and the German scored with a thumping finish.

Going into the late stages of the game, Vienna seemed to get the upper hand. As Rahman found Keetch on the edge of the box, neutrals worst fears materialized: The Englishman struck a fantastic finish into the top corner and sealed the game off. Vienna remains absolutely deadly in the last 15 minutes. It wouldn't even stay 3-1 as Rahman finds Hoffmann with a beautiful cross that Hoffmann couldn't even miss if he tried.

Vienna stay top dogs for now thanks to a brilliant Rahman performance with two goals and assists.
