League Play-Off

Meadow Lane
Spectators: 32 (Terracing: 25, Seating: 7, VIP seats: 0) 2 minutes into the game, Artemio Isaio was given a yellow card after he appeared to trip an opposing player. Excursionistas Palermo's manager was livid on the sidelines, but the referee was unmoved and gave Notts County Footbal Club the free kick. The supporters of Notts County Footbal Club booed when Excursionistas Palermo was adjudged a doubtful freekick after 3 match minutes in a wonderful position. Artemio Isaio didn't get a good kick on the ball. If Prospero Napier had kept his shot down it would have been a goal in the 6th minute. The ball went over the crossbar and out instead. In the 11th minute, Artemio Isaio ran past the defenders and hit a shot which went straight ahead into goal. Cornelio Platon was frozen by the shot and now it was 0-1. Ildefonso Savion showed brilliant goalkeeper skills when he caught the ball after a hard shot from Serafin Martxelin in the 33rd minute of the match. 38 minutes into the game, Artemio Isaio cracked a shot to the right of the goalkeeper, 1-2. Cornelio Platon was not in position, and could only watch the ball fly in. Fermin Jon hit a great freekick 42 minutes into the match. Artemio Isaio's shot was meant for the net just under the crossbar, but Cornelio Platon read the situation well and was quickly in position to make a wonderful save in the 45th minute of play. Even after changing tactics the home team jogged off the field with a 1-2 deficit. They would have to work harder if they wanted to turn things around in the second half.

When the second half was about to start, both teams quickly lined up and Artemio Isaio made a kick off. Fermin Jon sent away a hard shot on goal in the 53rd minute, but the ball went just over the crossbar and out. A very good chance. Cristobal Elequemedo fired away a screaming shot towards the goal in the 58th minute, but the shot went just over the crossbar without Ildefonso Savion having to interfere. Prospero Napier made a well adjusted shot against goal in the 60thth minute coming free in front of the goal, but Cornelio Platon would not let the ball come through at any expense and made a nice save by the left post. Serafin Martxelin fired away a screaming shot towards the goal in the 61st minute, but the shot went just over the crossbar without Ildefonso Savion having to interfere. In the 62nd minute, Bonifacio Sendoa hit a crossing free kick to the open man running down the field. Serafin Martxelin fired away a screaming shot towards the goal in the 64th minute, but the shot went just over the crossbar without Ildefonso Savion having to interfere. After some fancy dribbling in the 84th minute, Cristobal Elequemedo managed to get in a good position for a shot. Notts County Footbal Club's supporters rose to their feet, but Cristobal Elequemedo was a bit off balance and shot the ball just wide of the left post. Ildefonso Savion breathed a sigh of relief and went to take the goal kick. Cornelio Platon took care of the ball after a well-directed shot from Artemio Isaio, even though the ball almost passed him on his left side.
