Spectators: 9289 (Terracing: 6968, Seating: 2136, VIP seats: 185) The mood of the audience was pleasant when Franco Bosch made the kick off which started today's match. In the 8th minute Benat Aller shot on, it seemed, an open goal, but Ermengol Baena saw the ball coming and threw himself on it before it passed the goal line. Uruguayo AFC's attacker deliberately struck the ball against an opponent to win a corner for his team. The corner was taken by Doctor Alban in the 10th minute. A nice corner shot did that Doctor Alban got away a dangerous shot. Despite this Ermengol Baena quite easily got ahold of the ball to make the save. Franco Bosch might have been able to make a better finish in the 13th minute when he tried to place a hard shot over Mojmír Sivák. Instead the ball went over the crossbar and out. Franco Bosch ran back to his position shaking his head. In the 14th match minute, Uruguayo AFC was awarded a freekick, the ball was picked up by Nuno Pizaño to maneuver through the defense. If Bob Morley had kept his shot down it would have been a goal in the 15th minute. The ball went over the crossbar and out instead. 18 minutes into the game, ◄◄Lucas Cerro Largo►►'s Franco Bosch nearly tore a hole in the net with a booming shot. Mojmír Sivák made a valiant effort, but he could not reach the ball in time, 0-1. Franco Bosch's shot was meant for the net just under the crossbar, but Mojmír Sivák read the situation well and was quickly in position to make a wonderful save in the 22nd minute of play. Ermengol Baena showed brilliant goalkeeper skills when he caught the ball after a hard shot from Benat Aller in the 28th minute of the match. 29 minutes had been played when some careless play by ◄◄Lucas Cerro Largo►►'s defense caused the ball to cross the line for a corner. Doctor Alban was slow to take the kick. During this time Uruguayo AFC's players had a chance to rest. Doctor Alban made a great header on Uruguayo AFC's corner, it was just that ◄◄Lucas Cerro Largo►►'s Ermengol Baena managed to reach the ball for a save. Mojmír Sivák didn't have a chance when a screaming shot from Franco Bosch went, in the 32nd minute, to the upper right corner, 0-2 was the resulting score. An unexpectedly hard shot by Franco Bosch in the 36th minute of play forced Uruguayo AFC's goalkeeper Mojmír Sivák to throw himself to the left, to be able to save the ball. ◄◄Lucas Cerro Largo►►'s Ermengol Baena proved his good apprehension of play when he, in the 37th minute of the match, managed to save ◄◄Lucas Cerro Largo►► from getting a goal against them. 43 minutes into the match, ◄◄Lucas Cerro Largo►►'s goal looked a bit too open when Paulo Dybala came free, but Ermengol Baena reached the ball before it rolled over the goal line. If Nicollao Narbona had kept his shot down it would have been a goal in the 44th minute. The ball went over the crossbar and out instead. The crowd was extremely unhappy with the home team's performance in the first half. They were losing 0-2.

When the second half was about to start, both teams quickly lined up and Benat Aller made a kick off. The supporters of Uruguayo AFC booed when ◄◄Lucas Cerro Largo►► was adjudged a doubtful freekick after 58 match minutes in a wonderful position. Jimeno Sadurni didn't get a good kick on the ball. The audience was convinced that Benat Aller's extremely hard shot when he got free in front of the goal was going in, but Ermengol Baena was relentless in the 60th minute of the game. In the 65th minute Mertcan Kaynak shot on, it seemed, an open goal, but Ermengol Baena saw the ball coming and threw himself on it before it passed the goal line. 67 minutes into the match, ◄◄Lucas Cerro Largo►►'s goal looked a bit too open when Mertcan Kaynak came free, but Ermengol Baena reached the ball before it rolled over the goal line. 70 minutes into the game, Jimeno Sadurni was given a yellow card after he appeared to trip an opposing player. ◄◄Lucas Cerro Largo►►'s manager was livid on the sidelines, but the referee was unmoved and gave Uruguayo AFC the free kick. In the 70th match minute, ◄◄Lucas Cerro Largo►► was awarded a freekick, the ball was picked up by Jimeno Sadurni to maneuver through the defense. After having played for 74 minutes, Nicollao Narbona managed to get in a good position for a shot on goal. ◄◄Lucas Cerro Largo►►'s supporters crossed their fingers, but Nicollao Narbona was, after a quick turn that froze the defenders, out of balance and shot the ball just to the right of the goal. Daniel Golob kicked well hit freekick during the 76th minute of the match. Doctor Alban came free in the 78th minute and tried to tip the ball over Ermengol Baena, but to the joy of ◄◄Lucas Cerro Largo►►'s supporters the ball hit the crossbar and out. Benat Aller took the ball and in the 80 minute, shot a rapid shot to the right of a surprised Ermengol Baena. Ermengol Baena dived to the right, and did manage to get a hand on the shot, but it still went into the right corner making it 1-2. The audience thought a goal was coming when Nicollao Narbona got free with Mojmír Sivák in the 83rd minute, but the goalkeeper managed to catch the ball with a huge effort. After some careless play in the Uruguayo AFC defense, Franco Bosch kicked a shot that curved into the net to the right of Mojmír Sivák. The Uruguayo AFC fans voiced their displeasure as they felt that Mojmír Sivák should have stopped the shot. Mojmír Sivák showed brilliant goalkeeper skills when he caught the ball after a hard shot from Daniel Golob in the 91st minute of the match. After a rather tough play, Uruguayo AFC's Paulo Dybala got a free kick in the 92nd minute. The ◄◄Lucas Cerro Largo►► supporters could be heard counting down the last seconds of the match. They errupted in celebration when the whistle blew, knowing ◄◄Lucas Cerro Largo►► would go home with victory in their luggage after a match that easily could have ended differently.
