League Play-Off

Miguelete
Spectators: 34 (Terracing: 26, Seating: 8, VIP seats: 0) The sun was shining, the grass was green and the audience cheered when Lucas Soterraña got the match started through his kick off. Jerico Mallen stood for a superb save when he managed to get hold of Lucas Soterraña's shot from short distance in the 3rd minute. Fero Indart made a fantastic save in the 17th minute, when Diego Echeguren sent off a good shot on target. After having played for 18 minutes, Dionisio Lombraña managed to get in a good position for a shot on goal. Miguelete's supporters crossed their fingers, but Dionisio Lombraña was, after a quick turn that froze the defenders, out of balance and shot the ball just to the right of the goal. Dionisio Lombraña sent away a hard shot on goal in the 21st minute, but the ball went just over the crossbar and out. A very good chance. Jerico Mallen showed his good apprehension of the play when he made a fantastic save on a shot from Lucas Soterraña, who was totally free with the ball in the 26th minute. After a rather tough play, Nando's Cayo Martino got a free kick in the 26th minute. When Satordi Gurruchaga came up free with the goalie in the 30th minute, the Nando 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 Satordi Gurruchaga couldn't finish the play. After some fancy dribbling in the 35th minute, Lucas Soterraña managed to get in a good position for a shot. Nando's supporters rose to their feet, but Lucas Soterraña was a bit off balance and shot the ball just wide of the left post. Jerico Mallen breathed a sigh of relief and went to take the goal kick. In the 38th match minute, Miguelete was awarded a freekick, the ball was picked up by Prospero Regalado to maneuver through the defense. Juan-Alfredo Orgera fired away a screaming shot towards the goal in the 44th minute, but the shot went just over the crossbar without Jerico Mallen having to interfere. After a very even first half the match was still tied. The players went to their respective dressing rooms to discuss the tactics for the second half.

The players of the home team were most fresh-looking when they entered the field to play the second half. Dionisio Lombraña was the one to do the kick off. An unexpectedly hard shot by Lucas Soterraña in the 52nd minute of play forced Miguelete's goalkeeper Jerico Mallen to throw himself to the left, to be able to save the ball. After 54 minutes of play, Miguelete's Dionisio Lombraña made it 1-0 when he simply outclassed the defender marking him and hit a curling shot into the right side of the net. Fero Indart was left in no man's land by his defense there! Miguelete's Jerico Mallen played magnificently when he managed to stop the ball from hitting the goal, after a sharp shot by Lucas Soterraña in the 58th minute of play. After 61 minutes of play, Nando's Juan-Alfredo Orgera made it 1-1 when he simply outclassed the defender marking him and hit a curling shot into the right side of the net. Jerico Mallen was left in no man's land by his defense there! Diego Echeguren 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. Vinicio Uribizalgo kicked well hit freekick during the 75th minute of the match. Juan-Alfredo Orgera's shot straight on target was not completely harmless. The ball had pretty good speed, but Jerico Mallen firmly grabbed it by the left post. With a couple of smart ball manuevers Lucas Soterraña in the 85th managed to get into a good position. With a left leg Jerico Mallen saved Miguelete from getting behind. In the 92nd minute, Diego Echeguren 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. If Dionisio Lombraña had kept his shot down it would have been a goal in the 95th minute. The ball went over the crossbar and out instead. Both teams had looked equal from kick-off, and no-one was surprised when the match finally ended in a draw.
