League Play-Off

Estadio Carmen
Spectators: 32 (Terracing: 25, Seating: 7, VIP seats: 0) The field was rather wet after several days of rain when Gaudencio Pitin took the kick off in the first half of the match. When Gavino Balendin came up free with the goalie in the 2nd minute, the Líbaros fans jumped to their feet. But the shot missed the goal by a fraction of an inch, and the fans sat back down disappointed that Gavino Balendin couldn't finish the play. A collision led to Carmen getting a freekick after 3 minutes play. Tomas Maldonado hit a great ball. Leonardo Selatse made a wonderful reflex save on a shot from Flavio Rios in the 8th minute of play. Desiderio Dolcet sent away a hard shot on goal in the 9th minute, but the ball went just over the crossbar and out. A very good chance. The supporters of Líbaros booed when Carmen was adjudged a doubtful freekick after 11 match minutes in a wonderful position. Tomas Maldonado didn't get a good kick on the ball. Gavino Balendin struck a weak shot in the 14th minute. Leonardo Selatse didn't even have to move as the ball rolled over the line well wide of the goal. A wasted opportunity for Líbaros. Fernando Eguerdi received a nice pass in the box and took a hard shot in the 17th minute. Saverio Weather tensed up and prepared to dive, but the shot went over the goal with him having to interfere. Gavino Balendin blasted a shot towards the goal in the 20th minute, but the shot hit the top of the crossbar and went out without Leonardo Selatse having to make a save. Saverio Weather showed his good apprehension of the play when he made a fantastic save on a shot from Gaudencio Pitin, who was totally free with the ball in the 22nd minute. Fernando Eguerdi took the ball and in the 23 minute, shot a rapid shot to the right of a surprised Saverio Weather. Saverio Weather dived to the right, and did manage to get a hand on the shot, but it still went into the right corner making it 1-0. The Líbaros fans' excitement grew in the 27th match minute when Líbaros's Gavino Balendin looked to have a clear shot with the ball near the goal. The shot wasn't hard, but the ball still rolled over the goal line to make it 1-1 before the goalkeeper had a chance to intervene. When Jonas Abadie fell near the penalty area in the 31st minute he thought he would be awarded a free kick. The referee ignored Líbaros's protests and gave Jonas Abadie a yellow card for diving instead. In the 41st minute, Desiderio Dolcet made a precise shot to the right of Leonardo Selatse. Carmen's defense was at fault, and the scoreboard reflected the new score, 1-2. The Carmen players were disheartened as they walked off the pitch after the first half. Líbaros were winning 1-2.

The players of the home team were most fresh-looking when they entered the field to play the second half. Desiderio Dolcet was the one to do the kick off. If Desiderio Dolcet had kept his shot down it would have been a goal in the 53rd minute. The ball went over the crossbar and out instead. Desiderio Dolcet fired away a screaming shot towards the goal in the 56th minute, but the shot went just over the crossbar without Leonardo Selatse having to interfere. After a defensive mix-up in Líbaros's zone, Fernando Eguerdi stole the ball and had only the goalie to beat. Saverio Weather came out of the goal and Fernando Eguerdi tried to chip the ball over his head. To his dismay, the ball went over the crossbar and out of play. 67 minutes into the match, Líbaros's goal looked a bit too open when Fernando Eguerdi came free, but Saverio Weather reached the ball before it rolled over the goal line. If Gaudencio Pitin had kept his shot down it would have been a goal in the 68th minute. The ball went over the crossbar and out instead. Desiderio Dolcet sent away a hard shot on goal in the 70th minute, but the ball went just over the crossbar and out. A very good chance. Gavino Balendin succeeded to score despite a near miss that spronge from right pole into the goal to 1-4 in the 74th playminute. Leonardo Selatse made a wonderful reflex save on a shot from Desiderio Dolcet in the 78th minute of play. In the 79th minute Fernando Eguerdi shot on, it seemed, an open goal, but Saverio Weather saw the ball coming and threw himself on it before it passed the goal line. 89 minutes into the game, one of Líbaros:s players got tackled near the goal, and the referee blew for a penalty.
