This game is nothing less than the winner is continuing to playoffs.
The first half was respectable battle from both sides, where Serenade was slightly better than her Latvian opponent. Both teams, despite their romantic names, showed no mercy with strong power in every area of the pitch. Serenade opened the score on the 11th minutes by Wirman. Romantika had their chances, but the opponent’s goalkeeper did excellent game. Half time score 1:0 for Serenade. On second half it must be mentioned, that Serenade was better in all moments. And it gave them a goal one after another. Wirman, showed good movement in attack, did hat trick in this game where Koivisto added another goal. Romantika did what they can and had a blameless fight, but it was not enough today, as Serenade was really in good and strong mood and earned well her place in playoffs.
Final score Silja Serenade versus Romantika 4:0 (half time 1:0). Serenade romantically to quarterfinals.
