Sococha
Spectators: 34 (Terracing: 26, Seating: 8, VIP seats: 0) The mood of the audience was pleasant when Marcelito Irizarry made the kick off which started today's match. Sococha's Aznaro Carrasquedo played magnificently when he managed to stop the ball from hitting the goal, after a sharp shot by Laureano Ferrero in the 6th minute of play. In the 16th minute, Lando Capdevila 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. After 20 played minutes Sococha got a freekick which was hit by Hernan Vanegas. Laureano Ferrero recieved an excellent pass in front of the goal in the 27th minute. Unfortunately, he received the ball on his off foot and could only manage a weak shot that went over the goal. 30 minutes into the game, Marcelito Irizarry lined in a short shot 1-0 behind a frustrated Dimas Fidalgo. After a defensive mix-up in Sococha's zone, Laureano Ferrero stole the ball and had only the goalie to beat. Aznaro Carrasquedo came out of the goal and Laureano Ferrero tried to chip the ball over his head. To his dismay, the ball went over the crossbar and out of play. 40 minutes into the match, Sococha's goal looked a bit too open when Palos Granda came free, but Aznaro Carrasquedo reached the ball before it rolled over the goal line. Lando Capdevila struck a weak shot in the 42nd minute. Dimas Fidalgo didn't even have to move as the ball rolled over the line well wide of the goal. A wasted opportunity for Sococha.

The players of the home team were most fresh-looking when they entered the field to play the second half. Palos Granda was the one to do the kick off. In the 54th minute, Palos Granda 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. Shepherd Urroz took a chance and fired a shot far from the goal in the 60th minute, but it turned out to be a dangerous situation for Dimas Fidalgo. Pallacllo's goalkeeper really had to stretch himself to stop the ball from crossing the goal line. If Laureano Ferrero had kept his shot down it would have been a goal in the 63rd minute. The ball went over the crossbar and out instead. The audience thought a goal was coming when Laureano Ferrero got free with Aznaro Carrasquedo in the 64th minute, but the goalkeeper managed to catch the ball with a huge effort. After a rather tough play, Sococha's Claudio Carrero got a free kick in the 65th minute. Marcelito Irizarry received a nice pass in the box and took a hard shot in the 76th minute. Dimas Fidalgo tensed up and prepared to dive, but the shot went over the goal with him having to interfere. Sococha's Aznaro Carrasquedo proved his good apprehension of play when he, in the 81st minute of the match, managed to save Sococha from getting a goal against them. Sococha's Marcelito Irizarry got a good chance for a goal in the 83rd minute, but he totally mistimed the shot and it went over the crossbar. If Lando Capdevila had kept his shot down it would have been a goal in the 86th minute. The ball went over the crossbar and out instead. If Marcelito Irizarry had kept his shot down it would have been a goal in the 88th minute. The ball went over the crossbar and out instead. In the 94th minute Palos Granda shot on, it seemed, an open goal, but Aznaro Carrasquedo saw the ball coming and threw himself on it before it passed the goal line. Pallacllo's players left the field with heads hung low after losing a match that had been finely balanced throughout.
