Romantika did to Galaxy

Friday 22nd of May was held the second game in group B of the Tallink Cup 2015. Romantika versus Galaxy (group B) at Kaknäs stadium (Stockholm) – kick off 12:00 local time.

Romantika has already one big and beautiful 3 points in their pocket against Serenade and basically it might already guarantee their access to playoffs – but let’s see. Galaxy, operating with their most beautiful ship in our fleet in Turku Stockholm route, had silver medals in 2012 and 2013 they reached to quarterfinals. Romantika (as former BQ team) hasn’t so far played against Galaxy, so hard to expect who is stronger, as both have good and skillful teams.

Game started with really great and powerful pressure from Galaxy, where they had also good opportunities to score, but no luck and no goal. After that Romantika managed to equalize the game and had their moments, where they scored the opening goal and another one shortly followed. Half time 2:0 for Romantika. Second half Galaxy showed again beautiful aggressive attack, but no luck and quite many holes and mistakes in their defense – it wasn’t just their day. Still Galaxy managed to score 1 in the beginning of second half. Romantika was on the same time doing their best again and scored many goals also on the second half. Both teams played well, despite of the fact, that Romantika won with quite big score.

Final score Romantika versus Galaxy 5:1 (half time 2:0). Romantika did to Galaxy and is the first team in quarterfinals.
