League Play-Off

Mekhide
Spectators: 34 (Terracing: 26, Seating: 8, VIP seats: 0) Dark clouds were building up when the players entered the field. None of the them looked very eager to play. Rando Raudsoo started the match with the kick off. The referee was alert and spotted a serious foul by Ivo Kroonmäe during the 15th minute. The player immediately received a yellow card. 15 minutes into the game, one of Mekhide FC:s players got tackled near the goal, and the referee blew for a penalty. Joel Võrno acted impressively in front of the goal and made a superb save when he, in the 23rd minute, took the ball on the long shot from Maido Ereb. After a rather tough play, Mekhide FC's Ander Murelik got a free kick in the 27th minute. In the 32nd minute Maido Uudekülg shot on, it seemed, an open goal, but Robi Kõiv saw the ball coming and threw himself on it before it passed the goal line. Paavo Ojakäär fired away a screaming shot towards the goal in the 38th minute, but the shot went just over the crossbar without Robi Kõiv having to interfere. Robi Kõiv made a wonderful reflex save on a shot from Maido Uudekülg in the 41st minute of play. Joel Võrno was a little too slow when Rando Raudsoo got a fine hit on the ball which went right into the goal in the 44th minute. The score was now 1-1. The first half was very even, with the score at 1-1 when the whistle went for half-time. The players welcomed the break and quickly retired to the dressing rooms.

The players of the away team seemed most concentrated when Maido Uudekülg stepped up to make the kick off in the second half. After 51 played minutes Maido Uudekülg rounded Mekhide FC's defense and shot a beautiful shot into goal via left pole - 1-2. SK Ugla's Maido Uudekülg got a good chance for a goal in the 56th minute, but he totally mistimed the shot and it went over the crossbar. If Elmu Einla had kept his shot down it would have been a goal in the 58th minute. The ball went over the crossbar and out instead. In the 66th minute Maido Uudekülg shot on, it seemed, an open goal, but Robi Kõiv saw the ball coming and threw himself on it before it passed the goal line. After having played for 70 minutes, Maido Uudekülg managed to get in a good position for a shot on goal. SK Ugla's supporters crossed their fingers, but Maido Uudekülg was, after a quick turn that froze the defenders, out of balance and shot the ball just to the right of the goal. Elmu Einla sent away a hard shot on goal in the 72nd minute, but the ball hit the crossbar and went out. A very good chance for a goal. When the match had gone on for 74 minutes, Maido Uudekülg took a quick shot and it went in 1-3 without a chance for Robi Kõiv to make any attempt to save it. Maido Uudekülg received a nice pass in the box and took a hard shot in the 78th minute. Robi Kõiv tensed up and prepared to dive, but the shot went over the goal with him having to interfere. 79 minutes into the match, Rainer Kalinin dribbled the ball past the defender and swiftly kicked the ball to the left of Robi Kõiv, 1-4. If Maido Uudekülg had kept his shot down it would have been a goal in the 83rd minute. The ball went over the crossbar and out instead. After a defensive mix-up in Mekhide FC's zone, Elmu Einla stole the ball and had only the goalie to beat. Robi Kõiv came out of the goal and Elmu Einla tried to chip the ball over his head. To his dismay, the ball went over the crossbar and out of play. Rainer Kalinin struck a weak shot in the 87th minute. Robi Kõiv didn't even have to move as the ball rolled over the line well wide of the goal. A wasted opportunity for SK Ugla. In the 91st minute, Maido Uudekülg fired away a killer shot towards the goal that, to the delight of Robi Kõiv, passed just outside the right post. Rainer Kalinin received a nice pass in the box and took a hard shot in the 93rd minute. Robi Kõiv tensed up and prepared to dive, but the shot went over the goal with him having to interfere. SK Ugla's Leopold Looga couldn't find anyone to pass the ball to, so he shot a long shot towards the goal in the 96th minute. The shot went wide which resulted in a goal kick for Mekhide FC.
