Spectators: 7542 (Terracing: 5658, Seating: 1734, VIP seats: 150) The field was rather wet after several days of rain when Angelo Arenas took the kick off in the first half of the match. After 4 minutes, Angelo Arenas mouthed his way into the referee's book. The tension between the A.D. Alcorcón and the Hooligans FC players grew even worse after the yellow card. After 4 played minutes A.D. Alcorcón got a freekick which was hit by Angelo Arenas. Bernt Karlberg took a chance and fired a shot far from the goal in the 5th minute, but it turned out to be a dangerous situation for Lucian Segarra. A.D. Alcorcón's goalkeeper really had to stretch himself to stop the ball from crossing the goal line. The supporters of A.D. Alcorcón booed when Hooligans FC was adjudged a doubtful freekick after 6 match minutes in a wonderful position. Tor Engström didn't get a good kick on the ball. In the 10th minute, Saverio Alfaro reached a very good position and smashed the ball with a huge effort into the net, just to the left of Tim Tidén. The goal made the score 1-0. 13 minutes into the match, Angelo Arenas had an open shot that he just couldn't miss and scored to the right of Tim Tidén. Hooligans FC's manager could be seen yelling to the referee that Angelo Arenas was offside, but the referee ignored the protest. 2-0. Bernt Karlberg kicked well hit freekick during the 17th minute of the match. The crowd rose to their feet as Amerigo Batuecas kicked a wonderful shot that went in to the left of a diving Tim Tidén. That made the score 3-0 in the 20 minute of play. Tim Tidén was out of position in the 24 minute of play, and Angelo Arenas capitalized on the mistake with a soft shot into the goal. Angelo Arenas really showed his touch with that goal: 4-0. Lucian Segarra stood for a superb save when he managed to get hold of Jonny Strömberg's shot from short distance in the 31st minute. Angelo Arenas had several of the Hooligans FC's defenders around him in the penalty area when he, after 35 minutes of play, received a pass and succeeded in some way to shoot a shot which went straight ahead into goal. This resulted in a 5-0 score and a disappointed Tim Tidén as he didn't even see the shot coming. In the 42nd minute Daniel Frykberg shot on, it seemed, an open goal, but Lucian Segarra saw the ball coming and threw himself on it before it passed the goal line. In the 43rd minute, Sven-Olof Asklöv hit a crossing free kick to the open man running down the field. 45 minutes into the match, Stig Törnblom had an open shot that he just couldn't miss and scored to the right of Lucian Segarra. A.D. Alcorcón's manager could be seen yelling to the referee that Stig Törnblom was offside, but the referee ignored the protest. 5-1. No-one was surprised that the home team were leading 5-1 at half-time.

The hometeam waved at the audience when it was time for Jonny Strömberg to strike the kick off in the second half. Jonny Strömberg sent away a hard shot on goal in the 53rd minute, but the ball went just over the crossbar and out. A very good chance. In the 55th minute, Sven-Olof Asklöv hit a crossing free kick to the open man running down the field. Lucian Segarra stood for a superb save when he managed to get hold of Stig Törnblom's shot from short distance in the 62nd minute. When Stellan Blomquist fell near the penalty area in the 69th minute he thought he would be awarded a free kick. The referee ignored Hooligans FC's protests and gave Stellan Blomquist a yellow card for diving instead. After a rather tough play, Hooligans FC's Stellan Blomquist got a free kick in the 69th minute. In the 70th minute Fortunato Amer shot on, it seemed, an open goal, but Tim Tidén saw the ball coming and threw himself on it before it passed the goal line. An unexpectedly hard shot by Saverio Alfaro in the 73rd minute of play forced Hooligans FC's goalkeeper Tim Tidén to throw himself to the left, to be able to save the ball. The supporters of A.D. Alcorcón booed when Hooligans FC was adjudged a doubtful freekick after 79 match minutes in a wonderful position. Fredric Wallin didn't get a good kick on the ball. In the 80th minute, Felip Japón made a precise shot to the right of Tim Tidén. Hooligans FC's defense was at fault, and the scoreboard reflected the new score, 6-1. In the 85th minute, Felip Japón left the goalkeeper for dead before tapping the ball into the right side of the net. The A.D. Alcorcón fans were clearly happy with the effort and the scoreboard reflected the new score: 7-1. After having played for 88 minutes, Jonny Strömberg managed to get in a good position for a shot on goal. Hooligans FC's supporters crossed their fingers, but Jonny Strömberg was, after a quick turn that froze the defenders, out of balance and shot the ball just to the right of the goal. In the 89th minute, Valentín santillana hit a crossing free kick to the open man running down the field. Amerigo Batuecas struck a weak shot in the 93rd minute. Tim Tidén didn't even have to move as the ball rolled over the line well wide of the goal. A wasted opportunity for A.D. Alcorcón. The crowd rose to their feet and cheered when the referee blew the final whistle. A.D. Alcorcón had won after a very even match.
