Bronze medal game:
East Grinstead 1 – 4 (0 – 1) Partille SC
Both teams had chances to break the deadlock, but it was Partille who opened the scoring as Tobias Grand (joint event Top Scorer) beat EG keeper who had committed and was on the ground as he reverse flicked over and roofed the net in the 15th minute. The score remained 1-0 in favour of Partille into half time. In a very tight second half, where players matched eachother in speed, strength and workrate.
Once again Tobias Grand beat the keeper on the run, this time a flick on his forehand, bringing the score to 2-0 in the 31st minute. With 5 to go EG captain Simon FAULKNER put EG on the scoresheet from a direct strike at a corner. Player of the Tournament Joakim BJÖRKMAN almost had a solo effort as he intercepted and ran the pitch! East Grinstead pushed ahead using 6 field players, which in the end didn’t play dividends and Grand took advantage of the open net to bag 2 more.
