The fallout from last Saturday's fracas is rather less than I expected. Imortal's Herlander Tome has a 1 match suspension, while one of the Silves players as a two match ban, another just the one. Imortal were mysteriously fined €15 for "Irregularidade na formação das equipas de agentes de segurança." Four armed GNR perhaps insufficient to keep order among the 150 so present!

Irregularity in the training of security agent teams.
Probably a barb aimed at Imortals own yellow jacket squad? Maybe not quite up to the job when it kicked off, Tom.

Yesterday : Quarteirense 2 - 1 Imortal I was unable to go owing toi the absence of buses back from Quarteira on Saturday evenings. Other important results were Portimonense B 3 - 0 Silves and Ferreiras 2 - 2 Os 11 Esperanças. Imortal are still top, but now only 1 point ahead of Portimonense B and two ahead of Ferreiras. Next Saturday Imortal will be at home to Portimonense B, ko probably at 1600hrs but check in cae of late change.

A bit more about Saturday's game. It was played on the second, artificial, pitch at Quarteiras,presumably because the main piutch was unfit. Glad I didn't go. Awful place. Anyway, Tiago Sousa, in his first game since 11th January, replaced Herlander Tome (suspended) and Coelho replaced Vieira, otherwise the team was as the previous game. Quarteirense took a very early lead, it was 1-0 at half time. They increased their lead on 65 minutes. Mario Duarte pulled one back for Imortal on 81 minutes but they failed to gain what would have been a useful equaliser. The radio commentary left a lot to be desired! Imortal team : Inacio; Prates, Pedro Rodrigues, Jose, Dragnez; Cintra, Coelho, Alves, António; Sousa, Duarte. Subs used Tómas Rodrigues, Vieira, Baldé, Santos, Martins. Two yellow cards - Pedro Rodrigues and Jose. Duarte is the league's top scorer, with 19 goals in 25 games. Next for Imortal is a must win home game against Portimonense B on Saturday 12th April, ko 1600hrs / 4pm.

Very disappointing today in front of a good crowd. Imortal 1 - 2 Portimonense B Report on Monday. Ferreiras won at Silves, so the top of the table after four of the ten second phase games looks like this. Points were carried forward but not goals. Portimonense 56pts GD +5 Ferreiras 55pts GD +1 Imortal 54pts GD +1 All is not lost but the next game for Imortal, away to Ferreiras, will be crucial. A reminder now that the Algarve League does not play over Easter. The next games will be on Saturday 26th April. PS the fine mentioned above for 'irregularities of the security team' was rescinded.

IMORTAL ALBUFEIRA 1 - 2 PORTIMONENSE B
A very disappointing outcome in front of a good crowd. Imortal played well in the build-up, creating many scoring chances, but the final touch was missing. In a frantic finale, the crossbar was rattled, headers and overhead kicks went just wide. All is not lost, but Imortal really do need to win their next game, at Ferreiras on 26th April. There was one change in the line-up. Herlander Tome returned after a one match suspension. Mauro Jose dropped to the bench, with Tiago Sousa moving into the back four. Whether or not that change to the established defence caused the problem, I don't know, but twice Imortal were caught by swift counter-attacks and were twice punished with well taken goals. A good crowd was in, including a fair few from Portimão and a boisterous but good natured group of about two dozen lads on a stag weekend. They appreciated the skills of Walter Alves, who did his best to torment the opposition, who did get rather physical as he twisted and turned around them. They also appreciated a bit of retaliation, for which he was lucky not to be booked. The early minutes were very cagey. The first effort on goals didn't come until 15 minutes in. Imortal won a corner, which Duarte headed wide. Imortal had a lot of the ball as the half went on, Portimonense resorted to shirt pulling, which earned them two yellow cards . The first indication of a threat from the visitors counter-attack came on 27 minutes but, fortunately for Imortal, Guilherme Costa blazed his shot way over the bar. Imortal responded. Good work in midfield by Alves set up Dragnev for a cross from the left but it was too high. Then came the second counter-attack and the first goal. Imortal lost the ball deep inside the Portimonense half. A hefty clearance found João Marques on the half way line. He sped off towards the Imortal goal, pursued by Pedro Rodrigues. Marques won the race and finished with a thunderous effort from 20 metres. Back came Imortal. A free kick by Alves shot across the goal, missing everyone, then a good header by Duarte put Coelho through on goal, but he shot wide from ten metres. Early in the second half Imortal a big shout for a penalty, nothing doing. But the visitor's defence was in a tangle. Could Imortal exploit this? As in the first half, Imortal dominated the play but could not find that vital touch inside the box. Substitute Baldé went close with a difficult header. The press was on. More good play set up a header for Duarte that hit the crossbar, bounced down and was hacked to safety from among the bodies. Then a killer blow, with eight minutes left of the ninety. A massive wind assisted clearance by 'keeper Henriques was picked by just inside the Imortal half, squared across to unmarked André Chamusca whose low shot went in off the far post. Much gloom among home fans, but within a minute there was light. Baldé was bundled over off the ball inside the penalty area. Referee had no hesitation in pointing to the spot. Duarte placed the ball calmly and after the customary delay fairly hammered it in. But it was not to be. News that Ferreiras had won didn´t help. Imortal now have a few days off, there being no games over Easter. The next game is at Ferreiras on Saturday 26th April, ko 1600hrs. I shall miss that one as I shall be enjoying the delights of Tonbridge v Borehamwood in National League south. Imortal don't do well against Ferreiras, having lost both games against them in the first phase. Imortal Team : Inácio; Prates, Pedro Rodrigues, Dragnev, Sousa; Cintra, Coelho, Alves, Antonio; Herlander Tome, Duarte. Subs used : Tomas Rodrigues, Vieira, Santos, Martins, Baldé. Match statistics : Free kicks conceded : Imortal 13, Portimonense B 18 + the penalty Offside : 1 each Shots on target : Imortal 3, Portimonense B 3 Shots off target : Imortal 8, Portimonense B 5 Shots blocked : Imortal 0, Portimonense B 2 Corners : Imortal 9, Portimonense B 4 Yellow cards : Imortal 2, Portimonense B 4 Red cards : none |
