League Play-Off

Mamago
Spectators: 34 (Terracing: 26, Seating: 8, VIP seats: 0) Davide Varglien made the kick off and thus started the match. In the 5th minute of the match Christian Cassone shot from a long distance. The ball could have gone into the goal to the right of the goalkeeper, but Anfilogino Frezza showed his good shape when he easily got hold of the ball. 12 minutes into the game, Cosimo Ucci was given a yellow card after he appeared to trip an opposing player. Vignale's manager was livid on the sidelines, but the referee was unmoved and gave Mamago AFC the free kick. The supporters of Mamago AFC booed when Vignale was adjudged a doubtful freekick after 12 match minutes in a wonderful position. Cosimo Ucci didn't get a good kick on the ball. Alvaro Rosini fired away a screaming shot towards the goal in the 14th minute, but the shot went just over the crossbar without Ennio Toppi having to interfere. After having played for 16 minutes, Alvaro Rosini managed to get in a good position for a shot on goal. Mamago AFC's supporters crossed their fingers, but Alvaro Rosini was, after a quick turn that froze the defenders, out of balance and shot the ball just to the right of the goal. Cesare Palmucci struck a weak shot in the 29th minute. Anfilogino Frezza didn't even have to move as the ball rolled over the line well wide of the goal. A wasted opportunity for Vignale. Ennio Toppi took care of the ball after a well-directed shot from Davide Varglien, even though the ball almost passed him on his left side. Anfilogino Frezza didn't have a chance when a screaming shot from Cosimo Ucci went, in the 37th minute, to the upper right corner, 0-1 was the resulting score. In the 42nd minute, Amos Castellazzi hit a crossing free kick to the open man running down the field. If Davide Varglien had kept his shot down it would have been a goal in the 45th minute. The ball went over the crossbar and out instead. Alvaro Rosini received a nice pass in the box and took a hard shot in the 47th minute. Ennio Toppi tensed up and prepared to dive, but the shot went over the goal with him having to interfere. Even after changing tactics the home team jogged off the field with a 0-1 deficit. They would have to work harder if they wanted to turn things around in the second half.

Both teams looked relatively alert before the second half when the referee blew his whistle to tell Cosimo Ucci to make the kick off. With a little luck, Mamago AFC's Anfilogino Frezza got control of the ball when Cesare Palmucci tried to sneak it across the goal line. Cosimo Ucci blasted a shot towards the goal in the 54th minute, but the shot hit the top of the crossbar and went out without Anfilogino Frezza having to make a save. Cosimo Ucci sent away a hard shot on goal in the 55th minute, but the ball went just over the crossbar and out. A very good chance. An unexpectedly hard shot by Alvaro Rosini in the 57th minute of play forced Vignale's goalkeeper Ennio Toppi to throw himself to the left, to be able to save the ball. Enrico Patrizi took a chance and fired a shot far from the goal in the 61st minute, but it turned out to be a dangerous situation for Anfilogino Frezza. Mamago AFC's goalkeeper really had to stretch himself to stop the ball from crossing the goal line. In the 63rdth minute of the game Davide Varglien who was perfectly placed tried to make a shot on goal, but Vignale's Ennio Toppi was lucky and managed to grab hold of the ball. Cosimo Ucci was really disappointed when he shot the ball just outside the right post instead of scoring a goal in the 66th minute. Vignale's manager could be seen on the sidelines shaking his head and muttering to himself as his team had just wasted another chance. After some careless play in the Vignale defense, Alvaro Rosini kicked a shot that curved into the net to the right of Ennio Toppi. The Vignale fans voiced their displeasure as they felt that Ennio Toppi should have stopped the shot. After a defensive mix-up in Mamago AFC's zone, Cosimo Ucci stole the ball and had only the goalie to beat. Anfilogino Frezza came out of the goal and Cosimo Ucci tried to chip the ball over his head. To his dismay, the ball went over the crossbar and out of play. When Alvaro Rosini came up free with the goalie in the 78th minute, the Mamago AFC 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 Alvaro Rosini couldn't finish the play. Ennio Toppi made a wonderful reflex save on a shot from Davide Varglien in the 88th minute of play. The Vignale players were the happier at the end of the match as they had prevented Mamago AFC from taking control. The game ends in a draw.
