League Play-Off

Santiago
Spectators: 34 (Terracing: 26, Seating: 8, VIP seats: 0) The field was rather wet after several days of rain when Armando Trapiella took the kick off in the first half of the match. Cayetano Hinojosa could have scored with his fast shot on goal in the 4th minute of the match, but Goi Terrazos made a huge save. After a defensive mix-up in Tiatocura's zone, Mogel Basante stole the ball and had only the goalie to beat. Goi Terrazos came out of the goal and Mogel Basante tried to chip the ball over his head. To his dismay, the ball went over the crossbar and out of play. The supporters of Tiatocura booed when Santiago FC was adjudged a doubtful freekick after 6 match minutes in a wonderful position. Distiratsu Tezano didn't get a good kick on the ball. After 10 played minutes Santiago FC got a freekick which was hit by Endura Piega. Cayetano Hinojosa received a nice pass in the box and took a hard shot in the 15th minute. Goi Terrazos tensed up and prepared to dive, but the shot went over the goal with him having to interfere. Armando Trapiella fired away a screaming shot towards the goal in the 19th minute, but the shot went just over the crossbar without Gil Lerdo having to interfere. Gil Lerdo made a wonderful reflex save on a shot from Armando Trapiella in the 26th minute of play. 27 minutes into the match, Tiatocura's Bizen Lobo sent off a blazing shot straight on target, a shot that Gil Lerdo narrowly saved just below the crossbar. After a rather tough play, Santiago FC's Distiratsu Tezano got a free kick in the 28th minute. If Armando Trapiella had kept his shot down it would have been a goal in the 31st minute. The ball went over the crossbar and out instead. Bizen Lobo might have been able to make a better finish in the 43rd minute when he tried to place a hard shot over Gil Lerdo. Instead the ball went over the crossbar and out. Bizen Lobo ran back to his position shaking his head. Gil Lerdo showed brilliant goalkeeper skills when he caught the ball after a hard shot from Armando Trapiella in the 48th minute of the match. After the first half Tiatocura were leading 0-2. They had played with great self confidence throughout the first half and fully deserved their lead.

The hometeam waved at the audience when it was time for Mogel Basante to strike the kick off in the second half. Bizen Lobo recieved an excellent pass in front of the goal in the 56th minute. Unfortunately, he received the ball on his off foot and could only manage a weak shot that went over the goal. When Cayetano Hinojosa came up free with the goalie in the 61st minute, the Santiago FC 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 Cayetano Hinojosa couldn't finish the play. An unexpectedly hard shot by Armando Trapiella in the 64th minute of play forced Santiago FC's goalkeeper Gil Lerdo to throw himself to the left, to be able to save the ball. Bizen Lobo struck a weak shot in the 73rd minute. Gil Lerdo didn't even have to move as the ball rolled over the line well wide of the goal. A wasted opportunity for Tiatocura. Gil Lerdo showed his good apprehension of the play when he made a fantastic save on a shot from Armando Trapiella, who was totally free with the ball in the 75th minute. Bizen Lobo fired away a screaming shot towards the goal in the 83rd minute, but the shot went just over the crossbar without Gil Lerdo having to interfere. After a rather tough play, Santiago FC's Xurde Calzon got a free kick in the 84th minute. Tiatocura's Armando Trapiella got a good chance for a goal in the 88th minute, but he totally mistimed the shot and it went over the crossbar. Gil Lerdo made a wonderful reflex save on a shot from Armando Trapiella in the 92nd minute of play. Rik Barma kicked well hit freekick during the 94th minute of the match. Armando Trapiella's shot was meant for the net just under the crossbar, but Gil Lerdo read the situation well and was quickly in position to make a wonderful save in the 96th minute of play. Bizen Lobo received a nice pass in the box and took a hard shot in the 99th minute. Gil Lerdo tensed up and prepared to dive, but the shot went over the goal with him having to interfere. Tiatocura's players went to the stands to thank the travelling support. The fan's backing had helped spurr the team on to a fine performance that won them the match.
