League Play-Off

Hervas Estadio
Spectators: 34 (Terracing: 26, Seating: 8, VIP seats: 0) It was fairly windy and cold on the field when Santiago Losada kicked off to start the match. Santiago Losada might have been able to make a better finish in the 4th minute when he tried to place a hard shot over Elvis Rapado. Instead the ball went over the crossbar and out. Santiago Losada ran back to his position shaking his head. A collision led to Loriana getting a freekick after 5 minutes play. Medero Etxeberria hit a great ball. After 7 minutes, Xulio Figueroa mouthed his way into the referee's book. The tension between the Loriana and the Hervas players grew even worse after the yellow card. In the 7th minute, Xulio Figueroa hit a crossing free kick to the open man running down the field. In the 8th minute, Josepe Gómez sent off a long shot on goal, but the shot was nowhere near the goal and Loriana's Elvis Rapado didn't even have to move. Elvis Rapado made a wonderful reflex save on a shot from Santiago Losada in the 10th minute of play. In the 19th minute, Quintin Belalcaraz got an opportunity to score, but he didn't get a solid hit on the ball and ended up kicking it wide of the goal. A collision led to Hervas getting a freekick after 27 minutes play. Macerio Losada hit a great ball. Montxo Silva struck a weak shot in the 31st minute. Isaias Medina didn't even have to move as the ball rolled over the line well wide of the goal. A wasted opportunity for Loriana. Isaias Medina showed brilliant goalkeeper skills when he caught the ball after a hard shot from Cordario Zabalo in the 33rd minute of the match. Isaias Medina made a wonderful reflex save on a shot from Cordario Zabalo in the 36th minute of play. Elvis Rapado came out of the goal in the 44th minute to try and stop a shot by Hervas's Quintin Belalcaraz. But to his dismay, Quintin Belalcaraz quickly shot the ball in between his legs and into the goal making it 1-0. 48 minutes into the match, Hervas's goal looked a bit too open when Cordario Zabalo came free, but Isaias Medina reached the ball before it rolled over the goal line.

Both teams looked relatively alert before the second half when the referee blew his whistle to tell Cordario Zabalo to make the kick off. Montxo Silva sent away a hard shot on goal in the 53rd minute, but the ball went just over the crossbar and out. A very good chance. Cordario Zabalo fired away a screaming shot towards the goal in the 58th minute, but the shot went just over the crossbar without Isaias Medina having to interfere. After a defensive mix-up in Hervas's zone, Cordario Zabalo stole the ball and had only the goalie to beat. Isaias Medina came out of the goal and Cordario Zabalo tried to chip the ball over his head. To his dismay, the ball went over the crossbar and out of play. The crowd rose to their feet as Cordario Zabalo kicked a wonderful shot that went in to the left of a diving Isaias Medina. That made the score 1-2 in the 68 minute of play. Elvis Rapado showed brilliant goalkeeper skills when he caught the ball after a hard shot from Quintin Belalcaraz in the 74th minute of the match. Elvis Rapado took care of the ball after a well-directed shot from Quintin Belalcaraz, even though the ball almost passed him on his left side. Josepe Gómez hit a great freekick 79 minutes into the match. Cordario Zabalo blasted a shot towards the goal in the 83rd minute, but the shot hit the top of the crossbar and went out without Isaias Medina having to make a save. In the 88th minute, Medero Etxeberria hit a crossing free kick to the open man running down the field. Josepe Gómez, 89 minutes into the match, dribbled the ball up the side of the field and decided to take a long shot at the goal. Unfortunately, the ball was poorly hit and landed closer to the corner than to the goal. If Montxo Silva had kept his shot down it would have been a goal in the 93rd minute. The ball went over the crossbar and out instead. The Hervas supporters were disappointed that their team didn't take anything from the match, despite matching Loriana's performance. The match ended with a win for Loriana.
