Match Report
Milhundos
Spectators: 32 (Terracing: 25,
Seating: 7, VIP seats: 0) The sun was shining, the grass was green and the audience cheered when Catarino Faria got the match started through his kick off. Manuel Pacheco was in exellent shape and made a fantastic save when he, in the 9th minute of the match, managed to get hold of the ball after a long shot from Jaime Branco. If Miguel Nascimento had kept his shot down it would have been a goal in the 11th minute. The ball went over the crossbar and out instead. Bento Araújo took a chance and fired a shot far from the goal in the 13th minute, but it turned out to be a dangerous situation for Manuel Pacheco. Chaos FC's goalkeeper really had to stretch himself to stop the ball from crossing the goal line. In the 23rd minute, Diamantino Abreu ran past the defenders and hit a shot which went straight ahead into goal. André Correia was frozen by the shot and now it was 0-1. After 32 played minutes Chaos FC got a freekick which was hit by Jorge Abreu. João Valente struck a weak shot in the 37th minute. Manuel Pacheco didn't even have to move as the ball rolled over the line well wide of the goal. A wasted opportunity for Milhundos. Milhundos's João Valente got a good chance for a goal in the 41st minute, but he totally mistimed the shot and it went over the crossbar. Diamantino Abreu fired away a screaming shot towards the goal in the 45th minute, but the shot went just over the crossbar without André Correia having to interfere. Catarino Faria might have been able to make a better finish in the 46th minute when he tried to place a hard shot over André Correia. Instead the ball went over the crossbar and out. Catarino Faria ran back to his position shaking his head. The crowd was extremely unhappy with the home team's performance in the first half. They were losing 0-1.
The players of the home team were most fresh-looking when they entered the field to play the second half. João Valente was the one to do the kick off. Milhundos's André Correia played magnificently when he managed to stop the ball from hitting the goal, after a sharp shot by Catarino Faria in the 51st minute of play. André Correia showed brilliant goalkeeper skills when he caught the ball after a hard shot from Catarino Faria in the 57th minute of the match. After 58 minutes, Fernando Carvalho mouthed his way into the referee's book. The tension between the Milhundos and the Chaos FC players grew even worse after the yellow card. In the 58th match minute, Milhundos was awarded a freekick, the ball was picked up by Fernando Carvalho to maneuver through the defense. In the 72nd minute, Mário Moura hit a crossing free kick to the open man running down the field. After a rather tough play, Milhundos's Pedro Pedroso got a free kick in the 75th minute. After 79 minutes of play, Milhundos's João Valente made it 1-1 when he simply outclassed the defender marking him and hit a curling shot into the right side of the net. Manuel Pacheco was left in no man's land by his defense there! Milhundos's André Correia proved his good apprehension of play when he, in the 83rd minute of the match, managed to save Milhundos from getting a goal against them. If Catarino Faria had kept his shot down it would have been a goal in the 85th minute. The ball went over the crossbar and out instead. The audience thought a goal was coming when Diamantino Abreu got free with André Correia in the 90th minute, but the goalkeeper managed to catch the ball with a huge effort. 94 minutes into the match, Milhundos's João Valente sent off a blazing shot straight on target, a shot that Manuel Pacheco narrowly saved just below the crossbar.
