What a dominant display by 9 de Octubre tonight at the Estadio Alejandro Ponce Noboa de Fertisa! They completely outplayed Vargas Torres, running out 2-0 victors.
The first half was a cagey affair, with both teams feeling each other out. 9 de Octubre did manage to grab a goal, with W. Caicedo finding the back of the net in the 8th minute. That goal really set the tone for the rest of the game.
The second half saw 9 de Octubre really turn up the heat. W. Caicedo struck again in the 59th minute, and that was all she wrote. Vargas Torres couldn't seem to get a grip on the match, their attacks lacking the spark and precision of their opponents.
The most exciting moment for me was definitely that second goal. The sheer determination and controlled execution of 9 de Octubre's attack was brilliant, a real treat to watch!
It's clear 9 de Octubre came out with a focused strategy to control the midfield and dominate possession. Vargas Torres seemed to struggle in the face of their pressure and didn't have enough creativity to find a way past the 9 de Octubre defence.
A commanding performance by 9 de Octubre, and a significant win to add to their league campaign. Overall a satisfying match!
