Enrique Lekubegi was clearly disgusted with the effort of the defense and let the defenders know about it.

When Damian Orlo came up free with the goalie in the 65th minute, the ALIDIM FOR EVER fans jumped to their feet. But the shot missed the goal by a fraction of an inch, and the fans sat back down disappointed that Damian Orlo couldn't finish the play.

In the 70th minute Jairo Selatse shot on, it seemed, an open goal, but Enrique Lekubegi saw the ball coming and threw himself on it before it passed the goal line. The corner went over the outstretched arms of Palermo's goalie and right to Oscar Ekhi. He fired away a shot at goal, but the shot had too much spin, and it went just outside the goal. Palermo's manager breathed a sigh of relief on the sidelines as his team had managed to escape an almost certain goal. After 78 minutes of play, ALIDIM FOR EVER's Gaueko Nanclares made it 5-0 when he simply outclassed the defender marking him and hit a curling shot into the right side of the net. Enrique Lekubegi was left in no man's land by his defense there! A hard shot by Ulises Hernandez from long distance, 81 minutes into the match, got Jonatan Cordarrell's attention. Through a fast twist with his body, he could stop the ball from going in on his right side. In the 83rd minute, ALIDIM FOR EVER's Anselmo Botello seemed to kick out at an opponent. The referee saw this and, surprisingly, showed Anselmo Botello the red card, dismissing him from the pitch.

In a very dangerous position, a player in ALIDIM FOR EVER fell when an opponent tried to get the ball from him in the 83rd minute. Penalty!
