League Play-Off

河北沧州白袜队
Spectators: 32 (Terracing: 25, Seating: 7, VIP seats: 0) 3 minutes into the match, 康榕思 had an open shot that he just couldn't miss and scored to the right of 邱永海. 新疆阿克苏浪客队's manager could be seen yelling to the referee that 康榕思 was offside, but the referee ignored the protest. 1-0. 于亦希 struck a weak shot in the 9th minute. 邱永海 didn't even have to move as the ball rolled over the line well wide of the goal. A wasted opportunity for 河北沧州白袜队. 14 minutes into the match, 河北沧州白袜队's goal looked a bit too open when 龙鹰烨 came free, but 胡然奕 reached the ball before it rolled over the goal line. In the 15th minute 龙鹰烨 shot on, it seemed, an open goal, but 胡然奕 saw the ball coming and threw himself on it before it passed the goal line. When 吴棋思 fell near the penalty area in the 21st minute he thought he would be awarded a free kick. The referee ignored 河北沧州白袜队's protests and gave 吴棋思 a yellow card for diving instead. After 21 played minutes 河北沧州白袜队 got a freekick which was hit by 吴棋思. 胡然奕 took care of the ball after a well-directed shot from 龙鹰烨, even though the ball almost passed him on his left side. If 于亦希 had kept his shot down it would have been a goal in the 24th minute. The ball went over the crossbar and out instead. After a defensive mix-up in 新疆阿克苏浪客队's zone, 于亦希 stole the ball and had only the goalie to beat. 邱永海 came out of the goal and 于亦希 tried to chip the ball over his head. To his dismay, the ball went over the crossbar and out of play. After 38 minutes of play, the referee blew the whistle. It was a penalty for 新疆阿克苏浪客队! The goalkeeper, 邱永海, was totally fooled by 河北沧州白袜队's 张卫弘, who 40 minutes into the game made a penalty shot that went in on the goalkeeper's left side. 于亦希 in the 44thth minute had a little luck and got a chance for a shot in front of the goal. Without hesitation aimed to the right of 邱永海, who managed to lunge to the right direction and made a save. When 于亦希 came up free with the goalie in the 45th minute, the 河北沧州白袜队 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 于亦希 couldn't finish the play. 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 2-0.

The corner ended in 张卫弘 almost managing to get the ball behind the net, but 新疆阿克苏浪客队's 邱永海 did a great save. After having played for 56 minutes, 于亦希 managed to get in a good position for a shot on goal. 河北沧州白袜队's supporters crossed their fingers, but 于亦希 was, after a quick turn that froze the defenders, out of balance and shot the ball just to the right of the goal. An unexpectedly hard shot by 叶森耀 in the 60th minute of play forced 河北沧州白袜队's goalkeeper 胡然奕 to throw himself to the left, to be able to save the ball. 邱永海 took care of the ball after a well-directed shot from 于亦希, even though the ball almost passed him on his left side. After 69 minutes, 李骋广 mouthed his way into the referee's book. The tension between the 河北沧州白袜队 and the 新疆阿克苏浪客队 players grew even worse after the yellow card. In the 71st minute, 叶森耀 fired away a killer shot towards the goal that, to the delight of 胡然奕, passed just outside the right post. If 康榕思 had kept his shot down it would have been a goal in the 78th minute. The ball went over the crossbar and out instead. 叶森耀 might have been able to make a better finish in the 93rd minute when he tried to place a hard shot over 胡然奕. Instead the ball went over the crossbar and out. 叶森耀 ran back to his position shaking his head. 于亦希 sent away a hard shot on goal in the 95th minute, but the ball went just over the crossbar and out. A very good chance. 96 minutes into the match, 新疆阿克苏浪客队's 龙鹰烨 sent off a blazing shot straight on target, a shot that 胡然奕 narrowly saved just below the crossbar. There was no doubt that 河北沧州白袜队 were the better team. 河北沧州白袜队's players enjoyed the ovations of the crowd after the victory.
