League Play-Off

Igreja
Spectators: 36 (Terracing: 28, 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. João Castro started the match with the kick off. Sandro Paredes sent away a hard shot on goal in the 3rd minute, but the ball went just over the crossbar and out. A very good chance. After 10 minutes, Mário Lisboa mouthed his way into the referee's book. The tension between the Ossela and the Esmoriz players grew even worse after the yellow card. Mário Lisboa kicked well hit freekick during the 11th minute of the match. In the 13th minute António Cabral shot on, it seemed, an open goal, but Jaime Castro saw the ball coming and threw himself on it before it passed the goal line. Albertino Esteves hit a great freekick 14 minutes into the match. 20 minutes into the match, Sandro Paredes dribbled the ball past the defender and swiftly kicked the ball to the left of Jaime Castro, 2-0. After a defensive mix-up in Ossela's zone, Sandro Paredes stole the ball and had only the goalie to beat. Jaime Castro came out of the goal and Sandro Paredes tried to chip the ball over his head. To his dismay, the ball went over the crossbar and out of play. After a rather tough play, Ossela's Albertino Esteves got a free kick in the 30th minute. 33 minutes into the match, Ossela's goalkeeper Jaime Castro had to clear away a ball on his right side after a cunning shot by Sandro Paredes. After 47 minutes, Hugo Onofre mouthed his way into the referee's book. The tension between the Esmoriz and the Ossela players grew even worse after the yellow card. Hugo Onofre hit a great freekick 47 minutes into the match. The home fans were very happy to see their team leading 2-0 at half-time.

The players of the away team seemed most concentrated when Sandro Paredes stepped up to make the kick off in the second half. If João Castro had kept his shot down it would have been a goal in the 53rd minute. The ball went over the crossbar and out instead. The crowd rose to their feet as Ossela's Marco Almeida slotted home a wonderful shot that went in to the left of Aquilino Seixas. That made the score 2-1 after 55 minutes of play. 2-2 became the score in the 59th minute when Marco Almeida elegantly shot the ball into goal just under the crossbar. Bernardo Magalhães kicked well hit freekick during the 64th minute of the match. Ossela's Afonso Moreira got a good chance for a goal in the 69th minute, but he totally mistimed the shot and it went over the crossbar. When Hugo Onofre was, once again, overly rough in his play he received his second yellow card and was ordered off the ground. 70 minutes had been played. Hugo Onofre kicked well hit freekick during the 71st minute of the match. With his leg Aquilino Seixas managed to avoid a goal in the 72ndth minute, when Ossela's Marco Almeida fired away a shot with a lot of spin towards his right hand side. Esmoriz's André Sá quite brazenly broke a throw-in by Abel Monteiro, made in the 76th minute of the game. In the 80th minute of the game Afonso Moreira made a throw-in which Mário Lisboa played forward. An unexpectedly hard shot by João Castro in the 83rd minute of play forced Esmoriz's goalkeeper Aquilino Seixas to throw himself to the left, to be able to save the ball. In the 88th minute of the match Afonso Moreira sent off a long shot with destination to the right of the goalkeeper, but Aquilino Seixas skillfully saved the ball. António Cabral received a nice pass in the box and took a hard shot in the 92nd minute. Jaime Castro tensed up and prepared to dive, but the shot went over the goal with him having to interfere. Aquilino Seixas made an important save on a dangerous shot by Albertino Esteves in the 94th minute. Ossela were disappointed that they only managed a draw, even though they felt themselves to be the better team.
