Rome - Saturday, December 12 was played at the field oratorio San Leonardo Murialdo the match between Roma and Red Hawks Leones valid for the third day of the Italian league.
The two teams had to kick off in pairs at the top for the title of winter champions.
Kick-off at 15:30 with both teams very wary careful not to uncover the defense. But the Roma Leones seem more organized and at the end of the first quarter defaillance exploit two of the Red Hawks taking on the defensive 2-0 (signed by the Swiss-German duo Bernard - Von Hesler) then partially recovered from a goal from captain of the Reds Brianza Scaccia.
In the break the Red Hawks coach insists on quick passes and a better positioning of the defenders, and the results were not slow in coming. In the second quarter the Red Hawks seem better placed in the ground and, thanks to the many substitutions available, are a challenge to the Leones. The game becomes more difficult and Rome to arrange for personal actions of its soloists finding it 3-1 with a great goal usual Von Hesler.
third quarter that begins under the spotlight with the Capitoline pressing on the accelerator and scored 3 goals in quick succession. The Red Hawks go to the mat and, thanks to the accident Galperti (one of the most lively in attack), can not resist despite the freshest athletically.
last quarter the Reds decide to give more space to the many men on the bench and play in attack with less tactical pouring. What emerges is a funny game where the final goal to secure the 9-2 result at all are well made (to be sent to the archives Chiossi's goal on an assist by Antonelli and that of a galvanized Galperti) is the definitive 9-2 signed by Antonelli (hat-trick for him) at the end.
