League Play-Off

Pacoya
Spectators: 36 (Terracing: 28, Seating: 8, VIP seats: 0) The field was rather wet after several days of rain when Niva Bebian took the kick off in the first half of the match. Niva Bebian struck a weak shot in the 5th minute. Cordarrel Serna didn't even have to move as the ball rolled over the line well wide of the goal. A wasted opportunity for Randacua. Cordarrel Serna showed his good apprehension of the play when he made a fantastic save on a shot from Salvadore Oton, who was totally free with the ball in the 6th minute. In the 10thth minute of the game Niva Bebian who was perfectly placed tried to make a shot on goal, but Pacoya's Cordarrel Serna was lucky and managed to grab hold of the ball. Sanduru Galanes charged in rather forcefully in the 10th minute of the match, and managed to knock his opponent down. The referee showed Sanduru Galanes the yellow card, and asked the players to shake hands before continuing play. If Salvadore Oton had kept his shot down it would have been a goal in the 11th minute. The ball went over the crossbar and out instead. After 16 played minutes Saul Vinuesa rounded Randacua's defense and shot a beautiful shot into goal via left pole - 1-0. Cordarrel Serna came out of the goal in the 19th minute to try and stop a shot by Randacua's Niva Bebian. But to his dismay, Niva Bebian quickly shot the ball in between his legs and into the goal making it 1-1. When the match clock showed 22 minutes, the score became 1-2 when Niva Bebian sped through Pacoya's defense and sent away a curving shot that went into the net to the right of Cordarrel Serna. After 26 minutes of play, Randacua's Salvadore Oton made it 1-3 when he simply outclassed the defender marking him and hit a curling shot into the right side of the net. Cordarrel Serna was left in no man's land by his defense there! Edur Gaztelumendi charged in rather forcefully in the 30th minute of the match, and managed to knock his opponent down. The referee showed Edur Gaztelumendi the yellow card, and asked the players to shake hands before continuing play. A collision led to Randacua getting a freekick after 30 minutes play. Edur Gaztelumendi hit a great ball. 31 minutes into the match, Randacua's goal looked a bit too open when Roldanillo Berar came free, but Segio Cainzos reached the ball before it rolled over the goal line. The audience was convinced that Niva Bebian's extremely hard shot when he got free in front of the goal was going in, but Cordarrel Serna was relentless in the 46th minute of the game. The Pacoya players were disheartened as they walked off the pitch after the first half. Randacua were winning 1-3.

The players of the home team were most fresh-looking when they entered the field to play the second half. Roldanillo Berar was the one to do the kick off. If Roldanillo Berar had kept his shot down it would have been a goal in the 52nd minute. The ball went over the crossbar and out instead. Cordarrel Serna showed brilliant goalkeeper skills when he caught the ball after a hard shot from Niva Bebian in the 56th minute of the match. Luisito Candolias hit a great freekick 62 minutes into the match. In the 62nd minute, Luisito Candolias fired away an extremely well hit free kick, but unfortunately the ball went just outside to the right hand side of Segio Cainzos. In the 72ndth minute of the game Luisito Candolias who was perfectly placed tried to make a shot on goal, but Randacua's Segio Cainzos was lucky and managed to grab hold of the ball. Luisito Candolias sent away a hard shot on goal in the 76th minute, but the ball went just over the crossbar and out. A very good chance. After 78 played minutes Randacua got a freekick which was hit by Rodas Lastras. Segio Cainzos took care of the ball after a well-directed shot from Luisito Candolias, even though the ball almost passed him on his left side. In the 85th minute the ball was on its way in behind Pacoya's goalkeeper Cordarrel Serna, but with the help of a sacrificing defense, he could catch the ball at the crossbar. If Niva Bebian had kept his shot down it would have been a goal in the 91st minute. The ball went over the crossbar and out instead. The Randacua supporters could be heard counting down the last seconds of the match. They errupted in celebration when the whistle blew, knowing Randacua would go home with victory in their luggage after a match that easily could have ended differently.
