Land and Sea – Office and Princess
Wednesday 13th of May was held the first game in group D of the Tallink Cup 2015. Office team versus Baltic Princess (group D) at Sonera stadium (Helsinki) – kick off 13:00 local time.
We are glad that our land organizations have managed to collect already second year the team Tallink Office and participate in our tournament. In group D there is also another land rats team – Tallink Hotels. Baltic Princess as the big and powerful ship from Turku-Stockholm route has a challenge in this group to keep the seaman honor and flag high. Office team had a good team last year and they reached to quarterfinals, but we can say, that luck was not in their side last year. Baltic Princess as former Silja Europa was the first winner on the Tallink Cup in 2011. Surely both of them, in one way or another, want to proceed from the group level to playoffs and finals.
Game started with the pressure from Office side and they managed to open the score already on the 11th minutes, where in 10 minutes later followed the second one. Princess gathered their forces and had quite many good opportunities and before half time the penalty was given to them, what they scored with no problem. Half time on the board 2:1 and Office leading. In the very beginning of second half Princess managed to score the equalizer from the free kick, but after that the game belonged to Office team, where they scored 3 goals in a roll. It should be mentioned that Princess substitution bench was more than short. Good game from both sides, but Office deserved their victory.
Final score Office versus Baltic Princess 5:2 (half time 2:1). Office proved that football is their cup of rum – cheers lads!
Goals:
Matias Sundström (Office) 11´ 1:0
Juhani Nikkanen (Office) 20´ 2:0; 61´ 5:2
Christian Bondärs (B.Princess) 27´ 2:1 pen
