   ???

  TENERIFE         BARCELONE       :1 - 1
   ??? (83')        Bereguistain (10')

   That was the "game of the week" on UNIVISION.
   In summary, Barcelona should have won the game easily, but missed
   their numerous chances. They should have been up 4-0 at the half!
   Barcelona scored their goal when Bereguistain intercepted the
   ball from Tenerife's #5 (Toni?) from midfield and went on to easily
   beat the goalie on a one-on-one.
   After that goal, Barcelona had complete control of the first half.
   Amor missed two great chances as he had, twice, a one-on-one with
   Tenerife's goalie. The goalie (Manolo?) rejected both attempts.
   On one of the two chances, Amor seemed to be clearly offside...
   Also, still in the same half, Stoichkov scored!...but the goal
   was refused for an offside. The last minute of the half saw a
   Tenerife defender save his team by clearing the ball on the line!
   That one seemed to be a sure goal.
   Tenerife's defense, which plays a "line", seemed to be in constant
   trouble. They play the dangerous offside, and were often at the
   mercy of the line judge and the referee for calling those offsides.
   The second half saw Tenerife take more initiatives, and Barcelona
   drop back a little, but one could see that Barcelona was still in 
   control of things. Tenerife did have some chances, but were short
   on all of them.
   In minute 81, on one of Barcelona's counter attacks, Stoichkov
   came on a yet another one-on-one with the goalie, which in turn
   fouled Stoichkov. That foul was sanctioned by the referee with a red
   card. One of Tenerife's defenders replaced Manolo in the goal.
   Two minutes later, playing with 10 players only, and on another
   seemingly innocent and failed attack, Tenerife scored the equalizer.
   The goal was confusing! After a cross from the right side of the midfield,
   Barcelona's defense "panicked", which allowed ??? to score from about
   ten meters out with his...knee! The ball slowly rolled into the goal.
   A somewhat lucky goal!
   Basically, Barcelona wasted a point. They only have themselves to blame.
   They should have easily won that game, but I guess Tenerife's 
   perseverance prevaled. Tenerife never gave up. Their forwards were 
   always, always moving and trying.
   The refereing seemed to be, once again, biased for Barcelona, as some
   fouls were not called, and some offsides were mysteriously ommited.
