League Play-Off

Estadio Chuchucaruan
Spectators: 32 (Terracing: 25, Seating: 7, VIP seats: 0) The field was rather wet after several days of rain when Eloy Selatse took the kick off in the first half of the match. After a rather tough play, Chuchucaruana's Jorge Ofelio got a free kick in the 3rd minute. After recieving a nice pass, Quehué's Marcos Horado tried to score from far away in the 4th minute, but the ball went over the crossbar. Orlando Ledesma sent away a hard shot on goal in the 15th minute, but the ball went just over the crossbar and out. A very good chance. The supporters of Chuchucaruana booed when Quehué was adjudged a doubtful freekick after 17 match minutes in a wonderful position. Timoteo Cibran didn't get a good kick on the ball. If Eloy Selatse had kept his shot down it would have been a goal in the 23rd minute. The ball went over the crossbar instead. After having played for 24 minutes, Roman Urritz managed to get in a good position for a shot on goal. Chuchucaruana's supporters crossed their fingers, but Roman Urritz was, after a quick turn that froze the defenders, out of balance and shot the ball just to the right of the goal. The audience thought a goal was coming when Roman Urritz got free with Roque Rios in the 26th minute, but the goalkeeper managed to catch the ball with a huge effort. In the 28th minute the ball was on its way in behind Quehué's goalkeeper Roque Rios, but with the help of a sacrificing defense, he could catch the ball at the crossbar. Jose Tulio made a wonderful reflex save on a shot from Orlando Ledesma in the 32nd minute of play. Jose Tulio took care of the ball after a well-directed shot from Orlando Ledesma, even though the ball almost passed him on his left side. If Roman Urritz had kept his shot down it would have been a goal in the 36th minute. The ball went over the crossbar and out instead. 38 minutes into the match, Quehué's goal looked a bit too open when Eloy Selatse came free, but Roque Rios reached the ball before it rolled over the goal line. 39 minutes into the match, Quehué's goalkeeper Roque Rios had to clear away a ball on his right side after a cunning shot by Roman Urritz. Eloy Selatse sent away a hard shot on goal in the 41st minute, but the ball went just over the crossbar and out. A very good chance. 43 minutes into the match, Quehué's Orlando Ledesma sent off a blazing shot straight on target, a shot that Jose Tulio narrowly saved just below the crossbar. The score stood at 0-0 when the half time whistle went. Both sets of players seemed reasonably pleased with how the match was going.

When the second half was about to start, both teams quickly lined up and Orlando Ledesma made a kick off. Jose Tulio was out of position in the 52 minute of play, and Orlando Ledesma capitalized on the mistake with a soft shot into the goal. Orlando Ledesma really showed his touch with that goal: 0-1. Roman Urritz sent away a hard shot on goal in the 59th minute, but the ball hit the crossbar and went out. A very good chance for a goal. 65 minutes into the game, Eloy Selatse cracked a shot to the right of the goalkeeper, 1-1. Roque Rios was not in position, and could only watch the ball fly in. The audience was convinced that Roman Urritz's extremely hard shot when he got free in front of the goal was going in, but Roque Rios was relentless in the 69th minute of the game. When Ovidio Hibai fell near the penalty area in the 75th minute he thought he would be awarded a free kick. The referee ignored Chuchucaruana's protests and gave Ovidio Hibai a yellow card for diving instead. Jacobo Emenon's late challenge caught a Quehué's player on the shin and left him crawling around in pain. The referee blew his whistle and produced the yellow card. Jacobo Emenon helped the player get up and apologised. After 77 played minutes Chuchucaruana got a freekick which was hit by Jacobo Emenon. Jose Tulio was in exellent shape and made a fantastic save when he, in the 78th minute of the match, managed to get hold of the ball after a long shot from Marcos Horado. Roman Urritz sent away a hard shot on goal in the 79th minute, but the ball went just over the crossbar and out. A very good chance. In the 81st minute, Eloy Selatse got an opportunity to score, but he didn't get a solid hit on the ball and ended up kicking it wide of the goal. Roque Rios showed brilliant goalkeeper skills when he caught the ball after a hard shot from Roman Urritz in the 83rd minute of the match. Jose Tulio showed his good apprehension of the play when he made a fantastic save on a shot from Orlando Ledesma, who was totally free with the ball in the 84th minute. Isaias Dei received a nice pass in the box and took a hard shot in the 85th minute. Jose Tulio tensed up and prepared to dive, but the shot went over the goal with him having to interfere. 88 minutes into the match, Quehué's goal looked a bit too open when Roman Urritz came free, but Roque Rios reached the ball before it rolled over the goal line. After a rather tough play, Chuchucaruana's Nicolas Abancens got a free kick in the 89th minute. Marcos Horado shot from long distance in the 91st minute, but Jose Tulio was prepared and stopped the ball at the left post. Despite being the better team, Chuchucaruana failed to find the winning goal and were forced to settle for a single point.
