League Play-Off

Bletchley Stadium
Spectators: 36 (Terracing: 28, 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. Libardo Serrano started the match with the kick off. After a defensive mix-up in Bletchley's zone, Guillermo Guzman stole the ball and had only the goalie to beat. Ricardo Ochoa came out of the goal and Guillermo Guzman tried to chip the ball over his head. To his dismay, the ball went over the crossbar and out of play. When Libardo Serrano came up free with the goalie in the 5th minute, the Bletchley 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 Libardo Serrano couldn't finish the play. Ricardo Ochoa showed his good apprehension of the play when he made a fantastic save on a shot from Guillermo Guzman, who was totally free with the ball in the 11th minute. Jonathan Cerritos could have scored with his fast shot on goal in the 13th minute of the match, but Jairo Escalante made a huge save. Jairo Escalante showed brilliant goalkeeper skills when he caught the ball after a hard shot from Libardo Serrano in the 16th minute of the match.

Allan Leguizamon hit a great ball. In the 23rd minute, Rafael Lozano 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. 25 minutes into the match, Guillermo Guzman notched a goal, 0-1, to the right of Bletchley's Ricardo Ochoa. Ricardo Ochoa was clearly disgusted with the effort of the defense and let the defenders know about it. Misael Mena hit a great freekick 37 minutes into the match. Even after changing tactics the home team jogged off the field with a 0-1 deficit. They would have to work harder if they wanted to turn things around in the second half.

In the 52nd minute Guillermo Guzman shot on, it seemed, an open goal, but Ricardo Ochoa saw the ball coming and threw himself on it before it passed the goal line. Guillermo Guzman received a nice pass in the box and took a hard shot in the 54th minute. Ricardo Ochoa tensed up and prepared to dive, but the shot went over the goal with him having to interfere.

Jairo Escalante showed brilliant goalkeeper skills when he caught the ball after a hard shot from Jonathan Cerritos in the 84th minute of the match. 85 minutes into the game, Agustin Paredes was given a yellow card after he appeared to trip an opposing player. Cheshunt United's manager was livid on the sidelines, but the referee was unmoved and gave Bletchley the free kick. After a rather tough play, Cheshunt United's Agustin Paredes got a free kick in the 85th minute. If Rafael Lozano had kept his shot down it would have been a goal in the 89th minute. The ball went over the crossbar and out instead. Misael Mena sent away a hard shot on goal in the 92nd minute, but the ball went just over the crossbar and out. A very good chance. The teams fought very hard right up to the final whistle. Both sets of players were happy to go away with a draw.
