Roberto Figueroa was clearly disgusted with the effort of the defense and let the defenders know about it. With a couple of smart ball manuevers Doido De Maré in the 46th managed to get into a good position. With a left leg Roberto Figueroa saved LibertØs FC from getting behind. Even after changing tactics the home team jogged off the field with a 0-5 deficit. They would have to work harder if they wanted to turn things around in the second half.
