League Play-Off

Estadio Suripugio
Spectators: 32 (Terracing: 25, Seating: 7, VIP seats: 0) Dark clouds were building up when the players entered the field. None of the them looked very eager to play. Augusto Abilio started the match with the kick off. If Enzo Serapio had kept his shot down it would have been a goal in the 11th minute. The ball went over the crossbar and out instead. Bonifacio Isidor recieved an excellent pass in front of the goal in the 15th minute. Unfortunately, he received the ball on his off foot and could only manage a weak shot that went over the goal. 16 minutes into the match, Gauchos de Boedo's goal looked a bit too open when Israel Ponce came free, but Celedonio Cordarrell reached the ball before it rolled over the goal line. When Reynaldo Transito came up free with the goalie in the 18th minute, the Gauchos de Boedo 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 Reynaldo Transito couldn't finish the play. After a defensive mix-up in ★Rosario Central★'s zone, Teo Elixio stole the ball and had only the goalie to beat. Iker Gurutz came out of the goal and Teo Elixio tried to chip the ball over his head. To his dismay, the ball went over the crossbar and out of play. 24 minutes into the match, Bonifacio Isidor had an open shot that he just couldn't miss and scored to the right of Celedonio Cordarrell. Gauchos de Boedo's manager could be seen yelling to the referee that Bonifacio Isidor was offside, but the referee ignored the protest. 0-1. 30 minutes into the game, Israel Ponce cracked a shot to the right of the goalkeeper, 0-2. Celedonio Cordarrell was not in position, and could only watch the ball fly in. In the 33rd minute, Teo Elixio 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. Iker Gurutz took care of the ball after a well-directed shot from Augusto Abilio, even though the ball almost passed him on his left side. 42 minutes into the match, Gauchos de Boedo's goal looked a bit too open when Bonifacio Isidor came free, but Celedonio Cordarrell reached the ball before it rolled over the goal line. An unexpectedly hard shot by Enzo Serapio in the 43rd minute of play forced ★Rosario Central★'s goalkeeper Iker Gurutz to throw himself to the left, to be able to save the ball. The supporters of ★Rosario Central★ booed when Gauchos de Boedo was adjudged a doubtful freekick after 44 match minutes in a wonderful position. Nicanor Oinaz didn't get a good kick on the ball. With a little luck, ★Rosario Central★'s Iker Gurutz got control of the ball when Reynaldo Transito tried to sneak it across the goal line. In the 47th minute, Daniel Baciu hit a crossing free kick to the open man running down the field. Disappointed in the 0-2 score, the home team went to the dressing room to adjust tactics for the second half.

The players of the away team seemed most concentrated when Israel Ponce stepped up to make the kick off in the second half. In the 57th match minute, ★Rosario Central★ was awarded a freekick, the ball was picked up by Ludomir Niedziela to maneuver through the defense. In the 59th minute of the match Nicanor Oinaz sent off a long shot with destination to the right of the goalkeeper, but Iker Gurutz skillfully saved the ball. Iker Gurutz made a wonderful reflex save on a shot from Reynaldo Transito in the 63rd minute of play. Reynaldo Transito fired away a screaming shot towards the goal in the 69th minute, but the shot went just over the crossbar without Iker Gurutz having to interfere. If Israel Ponce had kept his shot down it would have been a goal in the 71st minute. The ball went over the crossbar and out instead. Gauchos de Boedo's Celedonio Cordarrell played magnificently when he managed to stop the ball from hitting the goal, after a sharp shot by Dalmacio Erramun in the 73rd minute of play. Israel Ponce fired away a screaming shot towards the goal in the 74th minute, but the shot went just over the crossbar without Celedonio Cordarrell having to interfere. Alfredo Pero fired away a screaming shot towards the goal in the 76th minute, but the shot went just over the crossbar without Iker Gurutz having to interfere. Reynaldo Transito struck a weak shot in the 80th minute. Iker Gurutz didn't even have to move as the ball rolled over the line well wide of the goal. A wasted opportunity for Gauchos de Boedo. If Reynaldo Transito had kept his shot down it would have been a goal in the 84th minute. The ball went over the crossbar and out instead. After some fancy dribbling in the 86th minute, Augusto Abilio managed to get in a good position for a shot. Gauchos de Boedo's supporters rose to their feet, but Augusto Abilio was a bit off balance and shot the ball just wide of the left post. Iker Gurutz breathed a sigh of relief and went to take the goal kick. In the 89th minute, ★Rosario Central★'s Israel Ponce dribbled the ball into the box and hit a shot with the outside of his foot, sending the keeper the wrong way. 0-3. In the 94th minute Bonifacio Isidor shot on, it seemed, an open goal, but Celedonio Cordarrell saw the ball coming and threw himself on it before it passed the goal line.
