                        Trikotex MB 7-1 Aker HC

The European Club Challenge II started off with the first match between Trikotex MB and Aker HC.  Trikotex dominated the game from the start and as the scoreline suggests, it was quite a one-sided encounter.  Trikotex opened the score in the 16th minute by Kranjec, their captain.  In the 21st minute, Trikotex made it 2 when Mihailovic was put through by Prcic whose first effort was blocked by the goalie but succeeded to score from the rebound.

In the 25th minute,
Trikotex made it 3-0
after a slip up in the
defence let Prcic
through on goal who
had little difficulty in
beating the keeper. 
Goal number 4 was
scored just before the
end of the first half
following a lovely move.
After a beautiful
exchange of passes by
Trikotex players in the
middle of the park, the
ball was played from the right into the Dee.  Aker goalkeeper Chaudhary failed to clear the cross and Mihailovic was left with plenty of time to make the score 4-0.  The only time that Aker came into the picture was in the 24th minute in the only short corner action with Ahmed hitting the ball over the bar.

In the second half Aker took a more adventurous stance and in the 2nd minute, Amir failed to score when put through on goal but Trikotex keeper Miroslav intercepted well at the top of the Dee.  In the 6th minute, Ghani scored what had to be the consolation goal when he met a sideline hit by Rahman Kahn and deflected the ball into the net.

In the 9th minute, Nabi was through for Aker but failed to round the goalkeeper.  The Trikotex defence was caught napping on many occasions with all the players being caught forward.  In the 20th minute Prcic scored after receiving a lovely pass in the Dee from Stanjevic.  In the final minutes, Stevancic added No. 6 and Stanjevic scored the seventh in the 34th minute which proved to be the final action in this goal packed game.
