League Play-Off

Incirano
Spectators: 35 (Terracing: 27, 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. Alessio Musacchio started the match with the kick off. When Damiano Del Vecchio came up free with the goalie in the 3rd minute, the Montefiascone FC 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 Damiano Del Vecchio couldn't finish the play. Ercole Catapano didn't have a chance when a screaming shot from Fausto Mancini went, in the 5th minute, to the upper right corner, 0-1 was the resulting score. Fulvio Carnevale fired away a screaming shot towards the goal in the 8th minute, but the shot went just over the crossbar without Bernardo Domina having to interfere. Alessio Musacchio did some fancy footwork in front of goal and succeeded to deceive the defenders so he could slam the ball in 1-1 to the left of a surprised Bernardo Domina 10 minutes into the match.

In the 28th minute, Cosimo Amatori hit a crossing free kick to the open man running down the field. Arrigo De Zorzi, 29 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 Angelo Palladino had kept his shot down it would have been a goal in the 31st minute. The ball went over the crossbar and out instead. A collision led to Montefiascone FC getting a freekick after 36 minutes play. Angelo Palladino hit a great ball.
