LISC U14 Boys European Tour

Playing on a windy plateau with beautiful views of the surrounding Danish landscape, LISC and Sport BK2 of Sweden played to a scoreless draw. With both teams likely best in their group, the competition was evenly matched, with LISC having a few better chances and, at times, greater intensity. With the wind blowing strong into the eastern goal mouth, LISC defended it well in the 1st half, and BK2 in the second. By end of match, LISC had failed to capitalize on at least 2 very good chances, in one case sending the ball just wide of the goal. With a tight pitch closely surrounded by pines, fans of both teams crowded the northern edge of the field. In the best chance for BK2, goalie Mark Pataky made a one-handed save. In the second half LISC won a number of corner kicks, but failed to capitalize on very good balls into the box. While the teams tied, the clear winner of the day was the surrounding countryside.
