With 30 minutes on the clock it looked like the Dynamos European dream was once again in tatters. The away goals rule meant that the 6-5 in favour of Real Cruzcampo would have taken them to Budapest for the final. Team captain for the night Michaelides bossed the park and sent Conngiggski far into the opponents’ half where he swiftly bagged a ‘trick ‘n’ a oner, denied the ‘trick ‘n’ a brace by a shot which rebounded off the bark. With a couple into the rafters, the chimps at the stadium certainly had their work cut out tonight. The acorns dislodged from a squirrel’s hoard landed on Garrattino whose protests to referee Jorge Satantango fell on deaf ears. The unruly crowd at least spared the teams the ‘mystery of the foxes’ (TM M. Waddolucci) and the players managed to retrieve at least one match ball in order to finish the tie 9-6. “When the lad went through the middle like a grecian urn it was sheer pottery in motion” observed Gavin Peacock.

Marmite PotM went to C. Conngiggskï while he also received the ‘Carson’ for his fumble in the first half – definitely a game of two halves for him then. Goal of the match was shared between Wolfkaiser, Garrattino and Conngiggskí – “the top drawer was pretty full tonight”, as Ally Shearer later observed. The 'David James' went to Michaelides for a flying leap middle doors.
Constantin Conngiggski is away
