League Play-Off

Parsons Park
Spectators: 34 (Terracing: 26, Seating: 8, VIP seats: 0) The sun was shining, the grass was green and the audience cheered when Warner Daly got the match started through his kick off. When Sport Clube Portugues's Warner Daly in the 17th minute got a chance for a shot 17th didn't hesitate and placed the ball to the right of the goalie. A beautiful save bye Parsons's goalie prevented a goal. Garrett Aguirre took care of the ball after a well-directed shot from Dan Dickinson, even though the ball almost passed him on his left side. Ray Henley took care of the ball after a well-directed shot from Waldo Helton, even though the ball almost passed him on his left side. After 34 played minutes Sport Clube Portugues got a freekick which was hit by Warner Daly. If Waldo Helton had kept his shot down it would have been a goal in the 40th minute. The ball went over the crossbar and out instead. If Filiberto Wooten had kept his shot down it would have been a goal in the 43rd minute. The ball went over the crossbar and out instead. After some careless play in the Parsons defense, Filiberto Wooten kicked a shot that curved into the net to the right of Garrett Aguirre. The Parsons fans voiced their displeasure as they felt that Garrett Aguirre should have stopped the shot. Luck had favoured the away team in the first, and they walked off with a 0-1 lead.

Both teams looked relatively alert before the second half when the referee blew his whistle to tell Emery Oberle to make the kick off. When the match had gone on for 61 minutes, Filiberto Wooten took a quick shot and it went in 0-2 without a chance for Garrett Aguirre to make any attempt to save it. After having played for 66 minutes, Dan Dickinson managed to get in a good position for a shot on goal. Sport Clube Portugues's supporters crossed their fingers, but Dan Dickinson was, after a quick turn that froze the defenders, out of balance and shot the ball just to the right of the goal. With a little luck, Parsons's Garrett Aguirre got control of the ball when Rupert Schwartz tried to sneak it across the goal line. An unexpectedly hard shot by Dan Dickinson in the 77th minute of play forced Parsons's goalkeeper Garrett Aguirre to throw himself to the left, to be able to save the ball. Marshall Webber sent away a hard shot on goal in the 82nd minute, but the ball went just over the crossbar and out. A very good chance. Parsons's Garrett Aguirre proved his good apprehension of play when he, in the 83rd minute of the match, managed to save Parsons from getting a goal against them. Luis Renteria charged in rather forcefully in the 84th minute of the match, and managed to knock his opponent down. The referee showed Luis Renteria the yellow card, and asked the players to shake hands before continuing play. Luis Renteria hit a great freekick 84 minutes into the match. After 85 minutes of play, Sport Clube Portugues's Filiberto Wooten made it 0-3 when he simply outclassed the defender marking him and hit a curling shot into the right side of the net. Garrett Aguirre was left in no man's land by his defense there! If Filiberto Wooten had kept his shot down it would have been a goal in the 91st minute. The ball went over the crossbar and out instead. The audience thought a goal was coming when Warner Daly got free with Garrett Aguirre in the 93rd minute, but the goalkeeper managed to catch the ball with a huge effort. Warner Dalys short, quick shot in the 95thth minute got Garrett Aguirre to make great effort and bar the ball away from getting in. When the match was over Sport Clube Portugues could go home with a victory in their luggage, having controlled the game far better than Parsons throughout the match.
