League Play-Off

Estadio Amenábar
Spectators: 32 (Terracing: 25, Seating: 7, VIP seats: 0) It was fairly windy and cold on the field when Hermengildo Blanco kicked off to start the match. In the 4th minute, Lorenzo Fresco hit a crossing free kick to the open man running down the field. Gaudencio Gonchan's shot was meant for the net just under the crossbar, but Amador Luke read the situation well and was quickly in position to make a wonderful save in the 5th minute of play. Rosendo Nuñez showed brilliant goalkeeper skills when he caught the ball after a hard shot from Lorenzo Fresco in the 9th minute of the match. The audience was convinced that Lorenzo Fresco's extremely hard shot when he got free in front of the goal was going in, but Rosendo Nuñez was relentless in the 16th minute of the game. An unexpectedly hard shot by Lorenzo Fresco in the 18th minute of play forced Flow-er Power's goalkeeper Rosendo Nuñez to throw himself to the left, to be able to save the ball. Hermengildo Blanco fired away a screaming shot towards the goal in the 23rd minute, but the shot went just over the crossbar without Rosendo Nuñez having to interfere. When Joaquin Liberto fell near the penalty area in the 28th minute he thought he would be awarded a free kick. The referee ignored Flow-er Power's protests and gave Joaquin Liberto a yellow card for diving instead. A collision led to Flow-er Power getting a freekick after 28 minutes play. Joaquin Liberto hit a great ball. Hermengildo Blanco took the ball and in the 30 minute, shot a rapid shot to the right of a surprised Rosendo Nuñez. Rosendo Nuñez dived to the right, and did manage to get a hand on the shot, but it still went into the right corner making it 0-1. 33 minutes into the match, Hermengildo Blanco had an open shot that he just couldn't miss and scored to the right of Rosendo Nuñez. Flow-er Power's manager could be seen yelling to the referee that Hermengildo Blanco was offside, but the referee ignored the protest. 0-2. After 38 played minutes Correas got a freekick which was hit by Marco Miliano. If Lorenzo Goito had kept his shot down it would have been a goal in the 41st minute. The ball went over the crossbar and out instead. Amador Luke took care of the ball after a well-directed shot from Gaudencio Gonchan, even though the ball almost passed him on his left side. Gaudencio Gonchan received a nice pass in the box and took a hard shot in the 45th minute. Amador Luke tensed up and prepared to dive, but the shot went over the goal with him having to interfere. Even after changing tactics the home team jogged off the field with a 0-2 deficit. They would have to work harder if they wanted to turn things around in the second half.

In the 53rd minute, Lorenzo Fresco ran past the defenders and hit a shot which went straight ahead into goal. Rosendo Nuñez was frozen by the shot and now it was 0-3. After a defensive mix-up in Flow-er Power's zone, Hermengildo Blanco stole the ball and had only the goalie to beat. Rosendo Nuñez came out of the goal and Hermengildo Blanco tried to chip the ball over his head. To his dismay, the ball went over the crossbar and out of play. 60 minutes into the match, Hermengildo Blanco notched a goal, 0-4, to the right of Flow-er Power's Rosendo Nuñez. Rosendo Nuñez was clearly disgusted with the effort of the defense and let the defenders know about it. 0-5 became the score in the 65th minute when Hermengildo Blanco elegantly shot the ball into goal just under the crossbar. Hermengildo Blanco sent away a hard shot on goal in the 69th minute, but the ball went just over the crossbar and out. A very good chance. 76 minutes into the match, Correas's Lorenzo Fresco sent off a blazing shot straight on target, a shot that Rosendo Nuñez narrowly saved just below the crossbar. Hermengildo Blanco was really disappointed when he shot the ball just outside the right post instead of scoring a goal in the 84th minute. Correas's manager could be seen on the sidelines shaking his head and muttering to himself as his team had just wasted another chance. Rosendo Nuñez didn't have a chance when a screaming shot from Lorenzo Fresco went, in the 87th minute, to the upper right corner, 0-6 was the resulting score. A collision led to Flow-er Power getting a freekick after 92 minutes play. Nemesio Markel hit a great ball. The away crowd were delighted with the way their team had played and cheered loudly when the final whistle sounded. Correas walked away with the win, even though the match was close until the end.
