La Sanguchera
Spectators: 7468 (Terracing: 5602, Seating: 1717, VIP seats: 149) Dark clouds were building up when the players entered the field. None of the them looked very eager to play. Rafael Santos Borré started the match with the kick off. Rafael Santos Borré received a nice pass in the box and took a hard shot in the 2nd minute. Pascual Virila tensed up and prepared to dive, but the shot went over the goal with him having to interfere. With a couple of smart ball manuevers Rafael Santos Borré in the 5th managed to get into a good position. With a left leg Pascual Virila saved ☆☆El Gordo Team☆☆ from getting behind. After having played for 6 minutes, Rafael Santos Borré managed to get in a good position for a shot on goal. A.D Atlético Villa Gesell's supporters crossed their fingers, but Rafael Santos Borré was, after a quick turn that froze the defenders, out of balance and shot the ball just to the right of the goal. If Lucas Alario had kept his shot down it would have been a goal in the 14th minute. The ball went over the crossbar and out instead. Pascual Virila made a wonderful reflex save on a shot from Lucas Alario in the 17th minute of play. After a rather tough play, ☆☆El Gordo Team☆☆'s Ernesto Dolfo got a free kick in the 26th minute. In the 28th minute, Rafael Santos Borré left the goalkeeper for dead before tapping the ball into the right side of the net. The A.D Atlético Villa Gesell fans were clearly happy with the effort and the scoreboard reflected the new score: 0-1. In the 31st minute, Rafael Santos Borré 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. When Reynaldo Gartzi fell near the penalty area in the 32nd minute he thought he would be awarded a free kick. The referee ignored ☆☆El Gordo Team☆☆'s protests and gave Reynaldo Gartzi a yellow card for diving instead. Reynaldo Gartzi kicked well hit freekick during the 32nd minute of the match. Pascual Virila took care of the ball after a well-directed shot from Lucas Alario, even though the ball almost passed him on his left side. The throw-in from Rollo Kildemose in the 35th minute of the game was unfortunally taken care of by ☆☆El Gordo Team☆☆'s Salvador Benino. Albano Oro's shot straight on target was not completely harmless. The ball had pretty good speed, but Severo Elequemedo firmly grabbed it by the left post. A hard shot 39 in the game by Albano Oro from a close distance when the talented Severo Elequemedo managed to make a qualified save. A.D Atlético Villa Gesell's players were relieved. Luck had favoured the away team in the first, and they walked off with a 0-1 lead.

Lucas Alario recieved an excellent pass in front of the goal in the 51st minute. Unfortunately, he received the ball on his off foot and could only manage a weak shot that went over the goal. 55 minutes into the match, Dario Harkaitz had an open shot that he just couldn't miss and scored to the right of Severo Elequemedo. A.D Atlético Villa Gesell's manager could be seen yelling to the referee that Dario Harkaitz was offside, but the referee ignored the protest. 1-1. Pascual Virila was a little too slow when Lucas Alario got a fine hit on the ball which went right into the goal in the 59th minute. The score was now 1-2. The crowd rose to their feet as Lucas Alario kicked a wonderful shot that went in to the left of a diving Pascual Virila. That made the score 1-4 in the 72 minute of play. An unexpectedly hard shot by Aureliano Hunfredo in the 84th minute of play forced ☆☆El Gordo Team☆☆'s goalkeeper Pascual Virila to throw himself to the left, to be able to save the ball. The referee felt a red card was in order, 85 minutes into the game, when Santos Leoiar put in a rough tackle. Santos Leoiar hit a great freekick 86 minutes into the match. After 87 played minutes, A.D Atlético Villa Gesell's Alejo Loren shot from a long distance, and at first it looked like the ball was going into the goal, but the goalkeeper Pascual Virila came through and got his fingers on the ball before it flew over the goal line. He then quickly gripped the ball tighter before the forwards in A.D Atlético Villa Gesell reached it. In the 89th minute, A.D Atlético Villa Gesell's Lucas Alario dribbled the ball into the box and hit a shot with the outside of his foot, sending the keeper the wrong way. 1-5. In the 95th minute, Dario Harkaitz sent off a long shot on goal, but the shot was nowhere near the goal and A.D Atlético Villa Gesell's Severo Elequemedo didn't even have to move. A.D Atlético Villa Gesell played a much better game than ☆☆El Gordo Team☆☆ and deserved their victory. The ☆☆El Gordo Team☆☆ players were clearly disappointed as they left the ground.
