“Anything that can go wrong will go wrong,” says Murphy’s Law. Because the person who can really agree with the North American’s phrase is Manuel Balde, who had a day to forget.
The 21-year-old Penafiel goalkeeper made three mistakes in nine minutes, which resulted in three goals against Oliveirense, their opponents in the first round of the 2nd league this Sunday.
In the 3rd minute, Manuel Balde made a poor move away from the goal after a corner kick and failed to intercept the ball – Lucao took advantage of the mistake and put Oliveirense ahead. Three minutes later, the Penafiel goalkeeper tried to get past his opponent, but it didn’t work out very well, and Ze Manuel (6’) increased the guests’ advantage. In the 9th minute, Manuel Balde made another mistake – he passed the ball to his opponent and took a long time to return to the goal. Andre Santos made the score 3:0 in Oliveirense’s favor.
In the 12th minute, Manuel Balde was replaced by Filipe Ferreira, and when it was time to leave the field, the Penafiel goalkeeper was consoled by his teammates, coach Helder Cristovao and even referee Tiago Martins.
It is worth noting that in the 71st minute Penafiel came into their own (4-3).
