Victoria did to Isabelle

Tuesday 4th of June was held the first game in group B of the Tallink Cup 2013. Victoria versus Isabelle (group B) at Kaknäs stadium (Stockholm) – kick off 11:30 local time.

Victoria as a beautiful blonde Estonian chick is the champion and winner of the last year's tournament. Isabelle as a sort of new girl in the fleet surely wants to proof to everybody, that they are much prettier than Victoria and have a mega girl's fight for that. Actually, as everybody knows, that Isabelle replaced the Festival in the spring and therefore all the crew was moved to Isabelle. Isabelle/Festival had very equal game against Victoria also last year in the group level, but they did lose 1:2 and didn't make through to playoffs. Revenge and everything was in the air before the game.

About the game itself – Victoria had the lead score 1:0 already at 9 minutes. Half time 1:0 to Victoria. On the second half Victoria continued to press and managed to score one and another one more. Isabelle had their chances, but luck and power was not on their side this time. Good and quite equal fight.

Final score Victoria versus Isabelle 3:0 (half time 1:0). And victorious Victoria did again to Isabelle!

Goals:
Martin Vilokas (Victoria) 9` 1:0
Toomas Kaldma (Victoria) 44` 2:0
Heinar Sotnik (Victoria) 69` 3:0

Cards:
Nikolajs Smoluks (Isabelle) 7` - yellow

MVP (Most Valuable Player) of the game was Marko Kaarde (Victoria).

Referee: Jari Raminen

Next game of this group shall be played already 14th May in Kaknäs between Victoria and Symphony. All other groups have already finished their games in the group level and are ready for the playoffs. So the best two from group A (Romantika and Galaxy), must have little patience to wait for their quarterfinals opponents from group B.
