League Play-Off

Espinillos
Spectators: 33 (Terracing: 26, Seating: 7, VIP seats: 0) It was fairly windy and cold on the field when Miguel Rocendo kicked off to start the match. Alberto Goyo sent away a hard shot on goal in the 3rd minute, but the ball went just over the crossbar and out. A very good chance. 6 minutes into the game, Gregorio Felo was given a yellow card after he appeared to trip an opposing player. La Antigua's manager was livid on the sidelines, but the referee was unmoved and gave Espinillos FC the free kick. After a rather tough play, La Antigua's Gregorio Felo got a free kick in the 6th minute. Elvio Leocadio made a wonderful reflex save on a shot from Alberto Goyo in the 10th minute of play. Miguel Rocendo scored 0-1 in the 23rd match minute with a shot that went into the goal to the right of Fausto Lluterio, who was just a little too slow in reacting to the shot. An unexpectedly hard shot by Miguel Rocendo in the 29th minute of play forced Espinillos FC's goalkeeper Fausto Lluterio to throw himself to the left, to be able to save the ball. In the 30th minute, Esteban Cordario hit a crossing free kick to the open man running down the field. German Beltxe could have scored with his fast shot on goal in the 41st minute of the match, but Elvio Leocadio made a huge save. The supporters of Espinillos FC booed when La Antigua was adjudged a doubtful freekick after 46 match minutes in a wonderful position. Gregorio Felo didn't get a good kick on the ball. Gervasio Iigo was probably a little too eager to shoot when he, in the 47th played minute, shot the ball from way out. The shot was hard, but the ball flew wide of the goal.

The players of the home team were most fresh-looking when they entered the field to play the second half. German Beltxe was the one to do the kick off. La Antigua's Elvio Leocadio played magnificently when he managed to stop the ball from hitting the goal, after a sharp shot by German Beltxe in the 54th minute of play. If German Beltxe had kept his shot down it would have been a goal in the 61st minute. The ball went over the crossbar and out instead. German Beltxe received a nice pass in the box and took a hard shot in the 67th minute. Elvio Leocadio tensed up and prepared to dive, but the shot went over the goal with him having to interfere. German Beltxe fired away a screaming shot towards the goal in the 85th minute, but the shot went just over the crossbar without Elvio Leocadio having to interfere. 87 minutes into the match, German Beltxe had an open shot that he just couldn't miss and scored to the right of Elvio Leocadio. La Antigua's manager could be seen yelling to the referee that German Beltxe was offside, but the referee ignored the protest. 2-1. Ignacio Heli sent away a hard shot on goal in the 93rd minute, but the ball went just over the crossbar and out. A very good chance. When Espinillos FC's German Beltxe in the 95th minute got a chance for a shot 95th didn't hesitate and placed the ball to the right of the goalie. A beautiful save bye La Antigua's goalie prevented a goal. The referee blew his whistle, and the match came to a close. The players exchanged shirts and headed down the tunnel. The Espinillos FC fans cheered their team off the field, for while La Antigua had put up a good fight, they were unable to come out of the game with any points to show for their effort.
