League Play-Off

Mori Stadium
Spectators: 35 (Terracing: 27, Seating: 8, VIP seats: 0) Dark clouds were building up when the players entered the field. None of the them looked very eager to play. Santiago Ruffin started the match with the kick off. After a defensive mix-up in San Marino's zone, Santiago Ruffin stole the ball and had only the goalie to beat. Avery Sousa came out of the goal and Santiago Ruffin tried to chip the ball over his head. To his dismay, the ball went over the crossbar and out of play. Zack Fields didn't have a chance when a screaming shot from Eddie Carson went, in the 9th minute, to the upper right corner, 0-1 was the resulting score. Santiago Ruffin struck a weak shot in the 14th minute. Avery Sousa didn't even have to move as the ball rolled over the line well wide of the goal. A wasted opportunity for Attack Mori FC. Scottie Finch recieved an excellent pass in front of the goal in the 16th minute. Unfortunately, he received the ball on his off foot and could only manage a weak shot that went over the goal. Zack Fields made a wonderful reflex save on a shot from Scottie Finch in the 18th minute of play. Tyrone Glass struck a weak shot in the 20th minute. Avery Sousa didn't even have to move as the ball rolled over the line well wide of the goal. A wasted opportunity for Attack Mori FC. Zack Fields showed brilliant goalkeeper skills when he caught the ball after a hard shot from Eddie Carson in the 22nd minute of the match. Eddie Carson scored 0-2 in the 26th match minute with a shot that went into the goal to the right of Zack Fields, who was just a little too slow in reacting to the shot. After some fancy dribbling in the 28th minute, Vincent Culver managed to get in a good position for a shot. Attack Mori FC's supporters rose to their feet, but Vincent Culver was a bit off balance and shot the ball just wide of the left post. Avery Sousa breathed a sigh of relief and went to take the goal kick. In the 33rd minute, Lewis Johns hit a crossing free kick to the open man running down the field. Eduardo Buck kicked well hit freekick during the 37th minute of the match. In the 38th minute, Terrance Shelton hit a crossing free kick to the open man running down the field. Even after changing tactics the home team jogged off the field with a 0-2 deficit. They would have to work harder if they wanted to turn things around in the second half.

The players of the home team were most fresh-looking when they entered the field to play the second half. Scottie Finch was the one to do the kick off. If Tristan Knox had kept his shot down it would have been a goal in the 52nd minute. The ball went over the crossbar and out instead. After 55 played minutes San Marino got a freekick which was hit by Scot Morse. Thanks to some nice foot action and superb ball handling Santiago Ruffin in the 62nd minute a chance for a shot on goal. With an extended leg and a bit of luck Avery Sousa prevented the ball from getting in the gole. Attack Mori FC's Zack Fields proved his good apprehension of play when he, in the 69th minute of the match, managed to save Attack Mori FC from getting a goal against them. Scottie Finch could have scored with his fast shot on goal in the 83rd minute of the match, but Zack Fields made a huge save. In the 84th minute, Eddie Carson ran past the defenders and hit a shot which went straight ahead into goal. Zack Fields was frozen by the shot and now it was 0-3. The Attack Mori FC supporters were disappointed that their team didn't take anything from the match, despite matching San Marino's performance. The match ended with a win for San Marino.
