BERNABEU ALONSO
Spectators: 40 (Terracing: 31, Seating: 9, VIP seats: 0) The mood of the audience was pleasant when Daniel Zorita made the kick off which started today's match. 9 minutes into the game, Ecuador's Daniel Zorita nearly tore a hole in the net with a booming shot. Alkan Soysaltürk made a valiant effort, but he could not reach the ball in time, 0-1. In the 12th minute Luis Andino shot on, it seemed, an open goal, but Alkan Soysaltürk saw the ball coming and threw himself on it before it passed the goal line. Enis Dersu recieved an excellent pass in front of the goal in the 14th minute. Unfortunately, he received the ball on his off foot and could only manage a weak shot that went over the goal. Alkan Soysaltürk stood for a superb save when he managed to get hold of Agustín Saelices's shot from short distance in the 23rd minute. Alkan Soysaltürk showed his good apprehension of the play when he made a fantastic save on a shot from Cristian Sancho, who was totally free with the ball in the 26th minute. 27 minutes into the game, Enis Dersu cracked a shot to the right of the goalkeeper, 1-1. Julio Vera was not in position, and could only watch the ball fly in. Julio Vera came out of the goal in the 30th minute to try and stop a shot by DONPATO's Enis Dersu. But to his dismay, Enis Dersu quickly shot the ball in between his legs and into the goal making it 2-1. An unexpectedly hard shot by Enis Dersu in the 41st minute of play forced Ecuador's goalkeeper Julio Vera to throw himself to the left, to be able to save the ball.

When the second half was about to start, both teams quickly lined up and Enis Dersu made a kick off. If Enis Dersu had kept his shot down it would have been a goal in the 52nd minute. The ball went over the crossbar instead. With a couple of smart ball manuevers Enis Dersu in the 56th managed to get into a good position. With a left leg Julio Vera saved Ecuador from getting behind. DONPATO's Alkan Soysaltürk proved his good apprehension of play when he, in the 68th minute of the match, managed to save DONPATO from getting a goal against them. DONPATO's Jairo Francesco was substituted for Lambis Tsekouras. DONPATO's Benedito de Sousa was substituted for Enis Dersu. DONPATO's Elequemedo Lomba quite brazenly broke a throw-in by Luis Andino, made in the 71st minute of the game. In the 74th minute the ball was on its way in behind DONPATO's goalkeeper Alkan Soysaltürk, but with the help of a sacrificing defense, he could catch the ball at the crossbar. After some fancy dribbling in the 77th minute, Benedito de Sousa managed to get in a good position for a shot. DONPATO's supporters rose to their feet, but Benedito de Sousa was a bit off balance and shot the ball just wide of the left post. Julio Vera breathed a sigh of relief and went to take the goal kick. The throw-in from Camilo Gisbert in the 80th minute of the game was unfortunally taken care of by DONPATO's Gaudencio Ugaitz. 83 minutes had been played when some careless play by Ecuador's defense caused the ball to cross the line for a corner. Timoteo Dalmau was slow to take the kick. During this time DONPATO's players had a chance to rest. After having played for 86 minutes, Cristian Sancho managed to get in a good position for a shot on goal. Ecuador's supporters crossed their fingers, but Cristian Sancho was, after a quick turn that froze the defenders, out of balance and shot the ball just to the right of the goal. Dé Sensø charged in rather forcefully in the 90th minute of the match, and managed to knock his opponent down. The referee showed Dé Sensø the yellow card, and asked the players to shake hands before continuing play. Dé Sensø hit a great freekick 90 minutes into the match. Daniel Zorita 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. 95 minutes into the game, DONPATO's Benedito de Sousa nearly tore a hole in the net with a booming shot. Julio Vera made a valiant effort, but he could not reach the ball in time, 3-1. Many of Ecuador's supporters were seen to leave the ground early as it became clear their team was going to lose. Ecuador may have spent more time on the ball, but DONPATO were more willing to take their chances and they walked away with the win.
