League Play-Off

Estadio Chouto
Spectators: 33 (Terracing: 26, Seating: 7, VIP seats: 0) The sun was shining, the grass was green and the audience cheered when Alexandre Moutinho got the match started through his kick off. Augusto Oliveira was astounded when the referee showed him the red card after a seemingly innocent challenge, 5 minutes into the match. 4 minutes into the game, one of Maiorga FC:s players got tackled near the goal, and the referee blew for a penalty. When Gil Ferreira fell near the penalty area in the 15th minute he thought he would be awarded a free kick. The referee ignored SC Chouto's protests and gave Gil Ferreira a yellow card for diving instead. A collision led to SC Chouto getting a freekick after 15 minutes play. Gil Ferreira hit a great ball. Paulo Macedo received a nice pass in the box and took a hard shot in the 19th minute. João Carneiro tensed up and prepared to dive, but the shot went over the goal with him having to interfere. 23 minutes into the match, Maiorga FC's José Carvalho sent off a blazing shot straight on target, a shot that João Carneiro narrowly saved just below the crossbar. João Barros came free with the goalkeeper in the 34th minute of the match, and shot straight on target. The shot was a little too simple and Rui Paredes could save by the left post. After 36 minutes of play, SC Chouto's João Barros made it 3-0 when he simply outclassed the defender marking him and hit a curling shot into the right side of the net. Rui Paredes was left in no man's land by his defense there! In the 43rd minute, SC Chouto's Vasco Gueifão dribbled the ball into the box and hit a shot with the outside of his foot, sending the keeper the wrong way. 4-0.

The players of the away team seemed most concentrated when Vasco Gueifão stepped up to make the kick off in the second half. An unexpectedly hard shot by João Barros in the 52nd minute of play forced Maiorga FC's goalkeeper Rui Paredes to throw himself to the left, to be able to save the ball. João Barros received a nice pass in the box and took a hard shot in the 54th minute. Rui Paredes tensed up and prepared to dive, but the shot went over the goal with him having to interfere. João Barros struck a weak shot in the 56th minute. Rui Paredes didn't even have to move as the ball rolled over the line well wide of the goal. A wasted opportunity for SC Chouto. The supporters of SC Chouto booed when Maiorga FC was adjudged a doubtful freekick after 64 match minutes in a wonderful position. José Carvalho didn't get a good kick on the ball. After 65 played minutes, SC Chouto's Gil Ferreira shot from a long distance, and at first it looked like the ball was going into the goal, but the goalkeeper Rui Paredes came through and got his fingers on the ball before it flew over the goal line. He then quickly gripped the ball tighter before the forwards in SC Chouto reached it. When the match had gone on for 67 minutes, Vasco Gueifão put it in 5-0 from a short distance just to the right of Rui Paredes. Daniel Azevedo blasted a shot towards the goal in the 70th minute, but the shot hit the top of the crossbar and went out without Rui Paredes having to make a save. After a defensive mix-up in Maiorga FC's zone, João Barros stole the ball and had only the goalie to beat. Rui Paredes came out of the goal and João Barros 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, SC Chouto's Vítor Macedo got a free kick in the 85th minute. Paulo Macedo recieved an excellent pass in front of the goal in the 86th minute. Unfortunately, he received the ball on his off foot and could only manage a weak shot that went over the goal. 95 minutes into the match, SC Chouto's Vasco Gueifão sent off a blazing shot straight on target, a shot that Rui Paredes narrowly saved just below the crossbar. João Barros took the ball and in the 97 minute, shot a rapid shot to the right of a surprised Rui Paredes. Rui Paredes dived to the right, and did manage to get a hand on the shot, but it still went into the right corner making it 6-0.
