PIEKŁO
Spectators: 7757 (Terracing: 5820, Seating: 1783, VIP seats: 154) The sun was shining, the grass was green and the audience cheered when Ulryk Hatman got the match started through his kick off. If Frank Rosa had kept his shot down it would have been a goal in the 13th minute. The ball went over the crossbar and out instead. Tomé Mota showed his good apprehension of the play when he made a fantastic save on a shot from Tobiasz Jaruzelski, who was totally free with the ball in the 20th minute. 22 minutes had been played when some careless play by Agua Santa's defense caused the ball to cross the line for a corner. Ulryk Hatman was slow to take the kick. During this time FC Wrocanka's players had a chance to rest. When Rafael Cruz fell near the penalty area in the 30th minute he thought he would be awarded a free kick. The referee ignored Agua Santa's protests and gave Rafael Cruz a yellow card for diving instead. A collision led to Agua Santa getting a freekick after 30 minutes play. Rafael Cruz hit a great ball. In the 31st minute, Wincenty Skirzynski hit a crossing free kick to the open man running down the field. Stefan Bochinski took care of the ball after a well-directed shot from Frank Rosa, even though the ball almost passed him on his left side. In the 33rd minute, Wincenty Skirzynski hit a crossing free kick to the open man running down the field. Tiago Cosme sent away a hard shot on goal in the 34th minute, but the ball went just over the crossbar and out. A very good chance. Tiago Cosme's late challenge caught a FC Wrocanka's player on the shin and left him crawling around in pain. The referee blew his whistle and produced the yellow card. Tiago Cosme helped the player get up and apologised. Tiago Cosme hit a great freekick 38 minutes into the match. Mateusz Trela fired away a screaming shot towards the goal in the 43rd minute, but the shot went just over the crossbar without Tomé Mota having to interfere. An unexpected shot in the 46th minute by Mateusz Trela got the crowd on their feet, but to their dismay it went out on the left side. With a little luck, Agua Santa's Tomé Mota got control of the ball when Ulryk Hatman tried to sneak it across the goal line. The score stood at 0-0 when the half time whistle went. Both sets of players seemed reasonably pleased with how the match was going.

The wind increased when Frank Rosa made the kick off in the second half. An unexpectedly hard shot by Ulryk Hatman in the 53rd minute of play forced Agua Santa's goalkeeper Tomé Mota to throw himself to the left, to be able to save the ball. 56 minutes into the match, Marcin Brak had an open shot that he just couldn't miss and scored to the right of Tomé Mota. Agua Santa's manager could be seen yelling to the referee that Marcin Brak was offside, but the referee ignored the protest. 1-0. Agua Santa made a substitution. William Luz replaced Fábio Lopez. 62 minutes into the game, Enrique Abreu recieved a splendid long ball, split the defenders, and gently placed the ball to the left of Stefan Bochinski. Enrique Abreu showed that you don't have to tear a hole in the net to score, 1-1. The audience thought a goal was coming when William Luz got free with Stefan Bochinski in the 66th minute, but the goalkeeper managed to catch the ball with a huge effort. If Enrique Abreu had kept his shot down it would have been a goal in the 69th minute. The ball went over the crossbar and out instead. After a rather tough play, FC Wrocanka's Eugeniusz Kanczuszewski got a free kick in the 70th minute. Stefan Bochinski made a wonderful reflex save on a shot from Frank Rosa in the 71st minute of play. With an all-out effort, Agua Santa's Stefan Bochinski threw himself towards the right post 73 minutes into the match and grabbed hold of the ball from Frank Rosa, which otherwise would have been placed in the net. Tomé Mota showed his good apprehension of the play when he made a fantastic save on a shot from Tobiasz Jaruzelski, who was totally free with the ball in the 74th minute. 77 minutes into the match, Agua Santa's Enrique Abreu sent off a blazing shot straight on target, a shot that Stefan Bochinski narrowly saved just below the crossbar. Stefan Bochinski came out of the goal in the 79th minute to try and stop a shot by Agua Santa's Dedê Mendes. But to his dismay, Dedê Mendes quickly shot the ball in between his legs and into the goal making it 1-2. 83 minutes into the match, FC Wrocanka's goal looked a bit too open when Tiago Cosme came free, but Stefan Bochinski reached the ball before it rolled over the goal line. Marcin Brak hit a great freekick 83 minutes into the match. In the 87th minute, Mateusz Trela ran past the defenders and hit a shot which went straight ahead into goal. Tomé Mota was frozen by the shot and now it was 2-2. Neither set of supporters seemed pleased with the draw, but both teams had played equally well today.
