Panamarillos 0 - 1 Rangers (394228256)

It was an exceptionally sunny day for the crowd of 2631 that came out to Hornillón. Defoe Brough was the appointed referee with assistance provided by Giuliano Grammatico and Haike Bastiaans. Panamarillos tactics involved an interesting 5-4-1 combination. The following players took the field: Ayroldi - Roca, Kabbaj, Riaño, Galbete, Bauçà - Cascasona, Spetler, Desvalls, Ericeira - Padrez.

A 2-5-3 alignment was the formation of choice for Rangers. Lineup: Karllund - Heesterman, Trotta - Panoš, Scott, Lamb, Summerfield, Doyle - Pelado, Dict, Heves.

P. Ayroldi looked great 6 minutes into the match after stopping a shot from the middle of the penalty area from the visitors' G. Pelado. O. Kabbaj behaved like an inexperienced youth player after 29 minutes as he gave the ball away to G. Pelado. Lucky for him though, there was no goal. The home crowd breathed a collective sigh of relief when J. Summerfield was unable to put the ball in the net after his show of skill down the left 31 minutes into the match. He was seen beating the pitch in frustration at missing such a good chance to give his team the lead! After 38 minutes, the defensive line of Panamarillos created a counterattack through the middle that gave O. Kabbaj a good look at the goal, but his shot glanced harmlessly off the crossbar. The teams went for the halftime break at 0 - 0. Possession in this half belonged to Rangers, who controlled the ball 72 percent of the time.

0 - 1 was the score with 48 minutes played, after B. Dict cut through the central defence and chipped home a goal for Rangers. The home crowd cheered when, after 64 minutes, B. Dict's charge up the middle resulted in the keeper making one of his best saves of the day. 66 minutes into the match, B. Heves came through the middle and almost added to his team's lead, but the shot went wide. Rangers enjoyed most of the ball, as they maintained 74 percent of possession.

Most important Panamarillos player was Z. Roca. N. Spetler turned in a dismal performance, however. Rangers's top performer was clearly B. Heves. On the other hand, D. Heesterman's play was disheartening. The match ends 0 - 1.
