League Play-Off

Achiras
Spectators: 34 (Terracing: 26, Seating: 8, VIP seats: 0) It was fairly windy and cold on the field when Kemen Casados kicked off to start the match. The supporters of Achiras booed when Verdun was adjudged a doubtful freekick after 2 match minutes in a wonderful position. Feliz Bolimburu didn't get a good kick on the ball. If Vergaray Lariz had kept his shot down it would have been a goal in the 6th minute. The ball went over the crossbar and out instead. The referee was alert and spotted a serious foul by Mingo Cerrudemos during the 9th minute. The player immediately received a yellow card. After a rather tough play, Verdun's Mingo Cerrudemos got a free kick in the 9th minute. When Maore Nevares came up free with the goalie in the 10th minute, the Achiras 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 Maore Nevares couldn't finish the play. Vergaray Lariz recieved an excellent pass in front of the goal in the 12th minute. Unfortunately, he received the ball on his off foot and could only manage a weak shot that went over the goal. After 13 played minutes Verdun got a freekick which was hit by Mingo Cerrudemos. 18 minutes into the match, Verdun's goal looked a bit too open when Maore Nevares came free, but Pablo Lavega reached the ball before it rolled over the goal line. After some fancy dribbling in the 22nd minute, Batista Arroyo managed to get in a good position for a shot. Verdun's supporters rose to their feet, but Batista Arroyo was a bit off balance and shot the ball just wide of the left post. Javier Gonzalo breathed a sigh of relief and went to take the goal kick. Tonete Arriete charged in rather forcefully in the 28th minute of the match, and managed to knock his opponent down. The referee showed Tonete Arriete the yellow card, and asked the players to shake hands before continuing play. Tonete Arriete hit a great freekick 28 minutes into the match. The audience held their breath when Xefe Manaut in the 34th minute of the game managed to trick the opponents defenses and fired away a shot outside the goal on the Pablo Lavega's left hand side. Tonete Arriete was shown his second yellow card after 42 minutes, following a rather ugly tackle on opponent. That was the end of his participation in the match. Tonete Arriete kicked well hit freekick during the 42nd minute of the match. Lobo Heces fired away a screaming shot towards the goal in the 48th minute, but the shot went just over the crossbar without Pablo Lavega having to interfere. After the first half the score was level. The break gave the players a chance to catch their breath, whilst the managers went over the tactics with them again.

In the 53rd match minute, Achiras was awarded a freekick, the ball was picked up by Lobo Heces to maneuver through the defense. A nice corner shot did that Sesuldo Baragaño got away a dangerous shot. Despite this Javier Gonzalo quite easily got ahold of the ball to make the save. Vergaray Lariz received a nice pass in the box and took a hard shot in the 60th minute. Pablo Lavega tensed up and prepared to dive, but the shot went over the goal with him having to interfere. In the 64th match minute, Verdun was awarded a freekick, the ball was picked up by Eguntsenti Presilla to maneuver through the defense. In the 65thth minute of the game Vergaray Lariz who was perfectly placed tried to make a shot on goal, but Verdun's Pablo Lavega was lucky and managed to grab hold of the ball. If Lobo Heces had kept his shot down it would have been a goal in the 66th minute. The ball went over the crossbar instead. Isauro Candana received a nice pass in the box and took a hard shot in the 74th minute. Pablo Lavega tensed up and prepared to dive, but the shot went over the goal with him having to interfere. Lobo Heces hit a great freekick 90 minutes into the match. Feliz Bolimburu sent away a hard shot on goal in the 97th minute, but the ball went just over the crossbar and out. A very good chance. The Verdun players were the happier at the end of the match as they had prevented Achiras from taking control. The game ends in a draw.
