League Play-Off

Cadillo
Spectators: 32 (Terracing: 25, Seating: 7, VIP seats: 0) Dark clouds were building up when the players entered the field. None of the them looked very eager to play. Feliciano Lartaun started the match with the kick off. Damaso Mateo showed brilliant goalkeeper skills when he caught the ball after a hard shot from Feliciano Lartaun in the 8th minute of the match. Feliciano Lartaun's shot was meant for the net just under the crossbar, but Damaso Mateo read the situation well and was quickly in position to make a wonderful save in the 10th minute of play. In the 21st minute, Angel Chap 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. With a couple of smart ball manuevers Feliciano Lartaun in the 23rd managed to get into a good position. With a left leg Damaso Mateo saved Triunvirato FC from getting behind. 28 minutes into the match, Clodoveo Odon had an open shot that he just couldn't miss and scored to the right of Daniel Suero. Cadillo's manager could be seen yelling to the referee that Clodoveo Odon was offside, but the referee ignored the protest. 0-1. After some careless play in the Cadillo defense, Clodoveo Odon kicked a shot that curved into the net to the right of Daniel Suero. The Cadillo fans voiced their displeasure as they felt that Daniel Suero should have stopped the shot. The audience was convinced that Arnaldo Cristos's extremely hard shot when he got free in front of the goal was going in, but Daniel Suero was relentless in the 35th minute of the game. Daniel Suero showed his good apprehension of the play when he made a fantastic save on a shot from Clodoveo Odon, who was totally free with the ball in the 36th minute. Hector Ihintza's late challenge caught a Triunvirato FC's player on the shin and left him crawling around in pain. The referee blew his whistle and produced the yellow card. Hector Ihintza helped the player get up and apologised. Clodoveo Odon struck a weak shot in the 41st minute. Daniel Suero didn't even have to move as the ball rolled over the line well wide of the goal. A wasted opportunity for Triunvirato FC. 43 minutes into the match, Cadillo's goal looked a bit too open when Clodoveo Odon came free, but Daniel Suero reached the ball before it rolled over the goal line. After a defensive mix-up in Cadillo's zone, Arnaldo Cristos stole the ball and had only the goalie to beat. Daniel Suero came out of the goal and Arnaldo Cristos tried to chip the ball over his head. To his dismay, the ball went over the crossbar and out of play. Feliciano Lartaun fired away a screaming shot towards the goal in the 47th minute, but the shot went just over the crossbar without Damaso Mateo having to interfere. 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 away team seemed most concentrated when Clodoveo Odon stepped up to make the kick off in the second half. Feliciano Lartaun received a nice pass in the box and took a hard shot in the 56th minute. Damaso Mateo tensed up and prepared to dive, but the shot went over the goal with him having to interfere. Leonides Orlanda hit a great freekick 61 minutes into the match. Damaso Mateo showed brilliant goalkeeper skills when he caught the ball after a hard shot from Feliciano Lartaun in the 68th minute of the match. Feliciano Lartaun sent away a hard shot on goal in the 75th minute, but the ball went just over the crossbar and out. A very good chance. Arnaldo Cristos's late challenge caught a Cadillo's player on the shin and left him crawling around in pain. The referee blew his whistle and produced the yellow card. Arnaldo Cristos helped the player get up and apologised. In the 76th match minute, Triunvirato FC was awarded a freekick, the ball was picked up by Arnaldo Cristos to maneuver through the defense. When Cadillo's Angel Chap in the 77th minute got a chance for a shot 77th didn't hesitate and placed the ball to the right of the goalie. A beautiful save bye Triunvirato FC's goalie prevented a goal. In the 84th minute Arnaldo Cristos shot on, it seemed, an open goal, but Daniel Suero saw the ball coming and threw himself on it before it passed the goal line. Cadillo's Daniel Suero proved his good apprehension of play when he, in the 86th minute of the match, managed to save Cadillo from getting a goal against them.

A fine initiative that could have resulted in a goal.
