League Play-Off

Cocuisitas
Spectators: 35 (Terracing: 27, Seating: 8, VIP seats: 0) Dark clouds were building up when the players entered the field. None of the them looked very eager to play. Guilabertus Beyzania started the match with the kick off. After a rather tough play, Malena's Liberto Cavazos got a free kick in the 4th minute. In the 7th minute Guilabertus Beyzania shot on, it seemed, an open goal, but Vito Puelles saw the ball coming and threw himself on it before it passed the goal line. If Arias Monelo had kept his shot down it would have been a goal in the 9th minute. The ball went over the crossbar and out instead. After a defensive mix-up in Malena's zone, Felix Galdia stole the ball and had only the goalie to beat. Erramu Mor came out of the goal and Felix Galdia tried to chip the ball over his head. To his dismay, the ball went over the crossbar and out of play. 22 minutes into the match, Cocuisitas FC's goal looked a bit too open when Guilabertus Beyzania came free, but Vito Puelles reached the ball before it rolled over the goal line. The referee was alert and spotted a serious foul by Saturnino Parayos during the 24th minute. The player immediately received a yellow card. In the 24th minute, Saturnino Parayos hit a crossing free kick to the open man running down the field. 29 minutes into the match, Arias Monelo notched a goal, 0-1, to the right of Cocuisitas FC's Vito Puelles. Vito Puelles was clearly disgusted with the effort of the defense and let the defenders know about it. When the match clock showed 32 minutes, the score became 0-2 when Guilabertus Beyzania sped through Cocuisitas FC's defense and sent away a curving shot that went into the net to the right of Vito Puelles. Disappointed in the 0-3 score, the home team went to the dressing room to adjust tactics for the second half.

The wind increased when Felix Galdia made the kick off in the second half. In the 54th minute, Walme Farran hit a crossing free kick to the open man running down the field. Arias Monelo received a nice pass in the box and took a hard shot in the 60th minute. Vito Puelles tensed up and prepared to dive, but the shot went over the goal with him having to interfere. The supporters of Malena booed when Cocuisitas FC was adjudged a doubtful freekick after 63 match minutes in a wonderful position. Augusto Barbot didn't get a good kick on the ball. In the 63rd minute of the match Alfonso Cavadilla sent off a long shot with destination to the right of the goalkeeper, but Vito Puelles skillfully saved the ball. In the 66th minute, Malena's Guilabertus Beyzania dribbled the ball into the box and hit a shot with the outside of his foot, sending the keeper the wrong way. 0-4. Guilabertus Beyzania was extremely unlucky when he, in the 71st minute, took a shot that hit the right post and went out. Arias Monelo might have been able to make a better finish in the 71st minute when he tried to place a hard shot over Vito Puelles. Instead the ball went over the crossbar and out. Arias Monelo ran back to his position shaking his head. Malena's Arias Monelo got a good chance for a goal in the 73rd minute, but he totally mistimed the shot and it went over the crossbar. Guilabertus Beyzania received a nice pass in the box and took a hard shot in the 74th minute. Vito Puelles tensed up and prepared to dive, but the shot went over the goal with him having to interfere. In the 77th match minute, Cocuisitas FC was awarded a freekick, the ball was picked up by Augusto Barbot to maneuver through the defense. After 80 minutes of play Cocuisitas FC's Saturnino Parayos was too eager in his attempt to stop his opponent and brought him down. With that he got his second yellow card and was ordered off the ground. Guilabertus Beyzania sent away a hard shot on goal in the 86th minute, but the ball went just over the crossbar and out. A very good chance. Alfonso Cavadilla's late challenge caught a Cocuisitas FC's player on the shin and left him crawling around in pain. The referee blew his whistle and produced the yellow card. Alfonso Cavadilla helped the player get up and apologised. Alfonso Cavadilla hit a great freekick 90 minutes into the match. When Walme Farran came up free with the goalie in the 91st minute, the Cocuisitas FC fans jumped to their feet. But the shot missed the goal by a fraction of an inch, and the fans sat back down disappointed that Walme Farran couldn't finish the play. Arias Monelo took the ball and in the 94 minute, shot a rapid shot to the right of a surprised Vito Puelles. Vito Puelles dived to the right, and did manage to get a hand on the shot, but it still went into the right corner making it 0-6. Malena played a much better game than Cocuisitas FC and deserved their victory. The Cocuisitas FC players were clearly disappointed as they left the ground.
