League Play-Off

Animaná
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. Eustaquio Senon started the match with the kick off. Ubaldo Arnau was really disappointed when he shot the ball just outside the right post instead of scoring a goal in the 10th minute. Animaná FC's manager could be seen on the sidelines shaking his head and muttering to himself as his team had just wasted another chance. After 12 played minutes Incahuasi got a freekick which was hit by Felipe Amato. Cesar Urbasa showed brilliant goalkeeper skills when he caught the ball after a hard shot from Eustaquio Senon in the 14th minute of the match. The supporters of Incahuasi booed when Animaná FC was adjudged a doubtful freekick after 17 match minutes in a wonderful position. Ubaldo Arnau didn't get a good kick on the ball. Dalmacio Aimar fired away a screaming shot towards the goal in the 22nd minute, but the shot went just over the crossbar without Romeo Palban having to interfere. Romeo Palban showed his good apprehension of the play when he made a fantastic save on a shot from Ismael Enol, who was totally free with the ball in the 24th minute. Flavio Quentin hit a great freekick 26 minutes into the match. Dalmacio Aimar 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. If Dalmacio Aimar had kept his shot down it would have been a goal in the 29th minute. The ball went over the crossbar and out instead. Ismael Enol sent away a hard shot on goal in the 38th minute, but the ball went just over the crossbar and out. A very good chance. When Jeronimo Satordi fell near the penalty area in the 41st minute he thought he would be awarded a free kick. The referee ignored Incahuasi's protests and gave Jeronimo Satordi a yellow card for diving instead. With a couple of smart ball manuevers Ismael Enol in the 46th managed to get into a good position. With a left leg Romeo Palban saved Animaná FC from getting behind.

The long shot by Jeronimo Satordi in the 53rd minute really tested Romeo Palban's skills. The ball was on its way into the goal to the left of him when he managed to stretch himself and save the shot and avoid a goal. Romeo Palban took care of the ball after a well-directed shot from Ismael Enol, even though the ball almost passed him on his left side. Romeo Palban was out of position in the 58 minute of play, and Ismael Enol capitalized on the mistake with a soft shot into the goal. Ismael Enol really showed his touch with that goal: 1-1. Cesar Urbasa didn't have a chance when a screaming shot from Alonzo Leoiar went, in the 62nd minute, to the upper right corner, 2-1 was the resulting score. After a rather tough play, Animaná FC's Alonzo Leoiar got a free kick in the 65th minute.
