League Play-Off

Maraussan
Spectators: 34 (Terracing: 26, Seating: 8, VIP seats: 0) The field was rather wet after several days of rain when Mourad Touron took the kick off in the first half of the match. 7 minutes into the match, Perenchies's goalkeeper Patxi Rosse had to clear away a ball on his right side after a cunning shot by Omar Vauchel. Brandon Boudaud shot the penalty kick right outside the post. After some fancy dribbling in the 25th minute, Omar Vauchel managed to get in a good position for a shot. Maraussan's supporters rose to their feet, but Omar Vauchel was a bit off balance and shot the ball just wide of the left post. Patxi Rosse breathed a sigh of relief and went to take the goal kick. An unexpectedly hard shot by Maximilien Millot in the 26th minute of play forced Maraussan's goalkeeper Dorian Bluteau to throw himself to the left, to be able to save the ball. Donovan Rapp sent away a hard shot on goal in the 28th minute, but the ball went just over the crossbar and out. A very good chance. Dorian Bluteau took care of the ball after a well-directed shot from Donovan Rapp, even though the ball almost passed him on his left side. In the 36th minute Donovan Rapp shot on, it seemed, an open goal, but Dorian Bluteau saw the ball coming and threw himself on it before it passed the goal line. André Charret hit a great freekick 36 minutes into the match. In the 37th minute, Maximilien Millot ran past the defenders and hit a shot which went straight ahead into goal. Dorian Bluteau was frozen by the shot and now it was 0-1. Omar Vauchel blasted a shot towards the goal in the 43rd minute, but the shot hit the top of the crossbar and went out without Patxi Rosse having to make a save. The supporters of Perenchies booed when Maraussan was adjudged a doubtful freekick after 45 match minutes in a wonderful position. Rodolphe Fonseca didn't get a good kick on the ball. Maraussan's Dorian Bluteau played magnificently when he managed to stop the ball from hitting the goal, after a sharp shot by Brandon Boudaud in the 46th minute of play. After the first half Perenchies were leading 0-1. They had played with great self confidence throughout the first half and fully deserved their lead.

Both teams looked relatively alert before the second half when the referee blew his whistle to tell Donovan Rapp to make the kick off. Omar Vauchel sent away a hard shot on goal in the 54th minute, but the ball went just over the crossbar and out. A very good chance. 56 minutes into the match, Maraussan's Omar Vauchel sent off a blazing shot straight on target, a shot that Patxi Rosse narrowly saved just below the crossbar. In the 64th minute Octave Basque shot on, it seemed, an open goal, but Dorian Bluteau saw the ball coming and threw himself on it before it passed the goal line. If Omar Vauchel had kept his shot down it would have been a goal in the 65th minute. The ball went over the crossbar and out instead. Raymond Chausse received a nice pass in the box and took a hard shot in the 67th minute. Patxi Rosse tensed up and prepared to dive, but the shot went over the goal with him having to interfere. After a rather tough play, Perenchies's Octave Basque got a free kick in the 68th minute. Donovan Rapp sent away a hard shot on goal in the 74th minute, but the ball went just over the crossbar and out. A very good chance. Dorian Bluteau took care of the ball after a well-directed shot from Donovan Rapp, even though the ball almost passed him on his left side. Omar Vauchel struck a weak shot in the 79th minute. Patxi Rosse didn't even have to move as the ball rolled over the line well wide of the goal. A wasted opportunity for Maraussan. After 81 minutes, Mourad Touron mouthed his way into the referee's book. The tension between the Maraussan and the Perenchies players grew even worse after the yellow card. In the 81st match minute, Maraussan was awarded a freekick, the ball was picked up by Mourad Touron to maneuver through the defense. Brandon Boudaud took a chance and fired a shot far from the goal in the 82nd minute, but it turned out to be a dangerous situation for Dorian Bluteau. Maraussan's goalkeeper really had to stretch himself to stop the ball from crossing the goal line. Brandon Boudaud's late challenge caught a Maraussan's player on the shin and left him crawling around in pain. The referee blew his whistle and produced the yellow card. Brandon Boudaud helped the player get up and apologised. In a very dangerous position, a player in Perenchies fell when an opponent tried to get the ball from him in the 85th minute. Penalty! The referee gave Maraussan a penalty, 87 minutes into the game. The penalty shot was made by Lorenzo Caze, who made a well placed shot into the net to the right of Perenchies's Patxi Rosse. 1-1. The second half was just like the first, even and exciting. The match ended in a draw.
