League Play-Off

Stradella
Spectators: 32 (Terracing: 25, Seating: 7, VIP seats: 0) It was fairly windy and cold on the field when Carmine Lucantoni kicked off to start the match. In the 7th minute Carmine Lucantoni shot on, it seemed, an open goal, but Corrado Disastro saw the ball coming and threw himself on it before it passed the goal line. Alvise Rago showed brilliant goalkeeper skills when he caught the ball after a hard shot from Donato Carozza in the 11th minute of the match. Alvise Rago didn't have a chance when a screaming shot from Donato Carozza went, in the 11th minute, to the upper right corner, 1-0 was the resulting score. With a little luck, Trevignano's Alvise Rago got control of the ball when Alessio Ottaviani tried to sneak it across the goal line. Donato Carozza might have been able to make a better finish in the 30th minute when he tried to place a hard shot over Alvise Rago. Instead the ball went over the crossbar and out. Donato Carozza ran back to his position shaking his head. An unexpectedly hard shot by Donato Carozza in the 34th minute of play forced Trevignano's goalkeeper Alvise Rago to throw himself to the left, to be able to save the ball. Donato Carozza fired away a screaming shot towards the goal in the 36th minute, but the shot went just over the crossbar without Alvise Rago having to interfere. In the 39th minute of the match, Donato Carozza tried to roll the ball into the goal by the right post, but Alvise Rago saw his intentions and got control of the ball before it passed the line. When Alex Pascali came up free with the goalie in the 41st minute, the Trevignano 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 Alex Pascali couldn't finish the play. In the 41st minute, Carmine Lucantoni left the goalkeeper for dead before tapping the ball into the right side of the net. The Trevignano fans were clearly happy with the effort and the scoreboard reflected the new score: 2-1.

The hometeam waved at the audience when it was time for Donato Carozza to strike the kick off in the second half. Trevignano's Alvise Rago played magnificently when he managed to stop the ball from hitting the goal, after a sharp shot by Donato Carozza in the 52nd minute of play. A collision led to Trevignano getting a freekick after 52 minutes play. Demetrio Carnevale hit a great ball. If Alessio Ottaviani had kept his shot down it would have been a goal in the 54th minute. The ball went over the crossbar and out instead. Corrado Disastro made an important save on a dangerous shot by Alex Pascali in the 57th minute. After 66 played minutes Stradella FC got a freekick which was hit by Donato Carozza. After some fancy dribbling in the 69th minute, Carmine Lucantoni managed to get in a good position for a shot. Trevignano's supporters rose to their feet, but Carmine Lucantoni was a bit off balance and shot the ball just wide of the left post. Corrado Disastro breathed a sigh of relief and went to take the goal kick. Alvise Rago made a wonderful reflex save on a shot from Donato Carozza in the 73rd minute of play. Carmine Lucantoni's shot was meant for the net just under the crossbar, but Corrado Disastro read the situation well and was quickly in position to make a wonderful save in the 81st minute of play. 85 minutes into the game, Fausto Di Croce was given a yellow card after he appeared to trip an opposing player. Trevignano's manager was livid on the sidelines, but the referee was unmoved and gave Stradella FC the free kick. Alessio Ottaviani fired away a screaming shot towards the goal in the 87th minute, but the shot went just over the crossbar without Alvise Rago having to interfere. Florian Papa hit a great freekick 88 minutes into the match. Alex Pascali struck a weak shot in the 91st minute. Corrado Disastro didn't even have to move as the ball rolled over the line well wide of the goal. A wasted opportunity for Trevignano. Stradella FC's Alessio Ottaviani got a good chance for a goal in the 96th minute, but he totally mistimed the shot and it went over the crossbar. Trevignano's players left the field with heads hung low after losing a match that had been finely balanced throughout.
