La Playa
Spectators: 52 (Terracing: 39, Seating: 12, VIP seats: 1) The field was rather wet after several days of rain when Michael Guisla took the kick off in the first half of the match. SiTomanBoy´s's James Novak proved his good apprehension of play when he, in the 5th minute of the match, managed to save SiTomanBoy´s from getting a goal against them. James Novak came out of the goal in the 9th minute to try and stop a shot by Playa Malvín's Stamen Tekeliev. But to his dismay, Stamen Tekeliev quickly shot the ball in between his legs and into the goal making it 1-0. With a little luck, SiTomanBoy´s's James Novak got control of the ball when Michael Guisla tried to sneak it across the goal line. The audience thought a goal was coming when Sandu Mândrilă got free with James Novak in the 14th minute, but the goalkeeper managed to catch the ball with a huge effort. The audience was convinced that Hernán Torrejón's extremely hard shot when he got free in front of the goal was going in, but Zé Roberto Teixeira was relentless in the 16th minute of the game. After a rather tough play, Playa Malvín's Alvise Catapano got a free kick in the 16th minute. After a rather tough play, SiTomanBoy´s's Hernán Torrejón got a free kick in the 18th minute. SiTomanBoy´s's James Novak played magnificently when he managed to stop the ball from hitting the goal, after a sharp shot by Stamen Tekeliev in the 19th minute of play. Thanks to some nice foot action and superb ball handling Michael Guisla in the 25th minute a chance for a shot on goal. With an extended leg and a bit of luck James Novak prevented the ball from getting in the gole. In the 29th minute Stamen Tekeliev shot on, it seemed, an open goal, but James Novak saw the ball coming and threw himself on it before it passed the goal line. SiTomanBoy´s's James Novak proved his good apprehension of play when he, in the 31st minute of the match, managed to save SiTomanBoy´s from getting a goal against them. With an all-out effort, Playa Malvín's James Novak threw himself towards the right post 32 minutes into the match and grabbed hold of the ball from Stamen Tekeliev, which otherwise would have been placed in the net. Through an outstanding action, after 36 minutes, James Novak successfully got his hands on the ball before it slid into the goal at the right post. Playa Malvín's Stamen Tekeliev managed to work through SiTomanBoy´s's defense and was going for an easy goal, but he hit the shot with his toe and the ball flew outside the goal. Stamen Tekeliev dejectedly held out his arms as if to ask why the ball hadn't gone in. If Sandu Mândrilă had kept his shot down it would have been a goal in the 39th minute. The ball went over the crossbar instead. With his leg James Novak managed to avoid a goal in the 45thth minute, when Playa Malvín's Michael Guisla fired away a shot with a lot of spin towards his right hand side. Hernán Torrejón fired away a screaming shot towards the goal in the 47th minute, but the shot went just over the crossbar without Zé Roberto Teixeira having to interfere. When the referee blew for the end of the half the home team players were clearly happier, as they went in to the break leading 1-0.

The players of the away team seemed most concentrated when Hernán Torrejón stepped up to make the kick off in the second half. After having played for 53 minutes, Hernán Torrejón managed to get in a good position for a shot on goal. SiTomanBoy´s's supporters crossed their fingers, but Hernán Torrejón was, after a quick turn that froze the defenders, out of balance and shot the ball just to the right of the goal. Stamen Tekeliev scored 2-0 in the 55th match minute with a shot that went into the goal to the right of James Novak, who was just a little too slow in reacting to the shot. The supporters of Playa Malvín booed when SiTomanBoy´s was adjudged a doubtful freekick after 75 match minutes in a wonderful position. Cassiano Novais didn't get a good kick on the ball. SiTomanBoy´s made a substitution. Verner Nord replaced Calvin Bessone. A collision led to SiTomanBoy´s getting a freekick after 77 minutes play. Cassiano Novais hit a great ball. Michael Guisla's shot was meant for the net just under the crossbar, but James Novak read the situation well and was quickly in position to make a wonderful save in the 84th minute of play. Cassiano Novais struck a weak shot in the 85th minute. Zé Roberto Teixeira didn't even have to move as the ball rolled over the line well wide of the goal. A wasted opportunity for SiTomanBoy´s. In the 94th minute Michael Guisla shot on, it seemed, an open goal, but James Novak saw the ball coming and threw himself on it before it passed the goal line. It was no surprise that this one had ended in a win for the home team. Playa Malvín had played much better football throughout.
