League Play-Off

Estadio Neves
Spectators: 32 (Terracing: 25, Seating: 7, VIP seats: 0) Dark clouds were building up when the players entered the field. None of the them looked very eager to play. Gustavo Domingues started the match with the kick off. Oliveira Melo struck a weak shot in the 5th minute. Basílio Santos didn't even have to move as the ball rolled over the line well wide of the goal. A wasted opportunity for SC Neves. 11 minutes into the match, SC Neves's goal looked a bit too open when Armando Faria came free, but Ricardo Almeida reached the ball before it rolled over the goal line. Gustavo Domingues fired away a screaming shot towards the goal in the 22nd minute, but the shot went just over the crossbar without Basílio Santos having to interfere. When SC Neves's Gustavo Domingues in the 29th minute got a chance for a shot 29th didn't hesitate and placed the ball to the right of the goalie. A beautiful save bye SC Vales's goalie prevented a goal. Vicente Veiga hit a great freekick 33 minutes into the match. Armando Faria sent away a hard shot on goal in the 36th minute, but the ball went just over the crossbar and out. A very good chance. Miguel Brás fired away a screaming shot towards the goal in the 43rd minute, but the shot went just over the crossbar without Ricardo Almeida having to interfere.

Both teams looked relatively alert before the second half when the referee blew his whistle to tell Miguel Brás to make the kick off. If Vítor Anjos had kept his shot down it would have been a goal in the 72nd minute. The ball went over the crossbar and out instead. Gustavo Domingues took the ball and in the 74 minute, shot a rapid shot to the right of a surprised Basílio Santos. Basílio Santos dived to the right, and did manage to get a hand on the shot, but it still went into the right corner making it 2-1. An unexpected shot in the 79th minute by Armando Faria got the crowd on their feet, but to their dismay it went out on the left side. Carlos Trindade charged in rather forcefully in the 83rd minute of the match, and managed to knock his opponent down. The referee showed Carlos Trindade the yellow card, and asked the players to shake hands before continuing play. Carlos Trindade hit a great freekick 83 minutes into the match. Ricardo Almeida made a fantastic save in the 86th minute, when Armando Faria sent off a good shot on target. If Vítor Anjos had kept his shot down it would have been a goal in the 93rd minute. The ball went over the crossbar and out instead. Basílio Santos showed his good apprehension of the play when he made a fantastic save on a shot from Gustavo Domingues, who was totally free with the ball in the 95th minute. Vítor Anjos struck a weak shot in the 96th minute. Basílio Santos didn't even have to move as the ball rolled over the line well wide of the goal. A wasted opportunity for SC Neves. Neither set of supporters seemed pleased with the draw, but both teams had played equally well today.
