Spectators: 7231 (Terracing: 5425, Seating: 1663, VIP seats: 143) The mood of the audience was pleasant when Celso Elia made the kick off which started today's match. Cosme Amaya was out of position in the 5 minute of play, and Ciro Manex capitalized on the mistake with a soft shot into the goal. Ciro Manex really showed his touch with that goal: 1-0. 10 minutes into the game, Celso Elia cracked a shot to the right of the goalkeeper, 1-1. Benedicto Prejun was not in position, and could only watch the ball fly in. Benedicto Prejun showed his good apprehension of the play when he made a fantastic save on a shot from Celso Elia, who was totally free with the ball in the 17th minute. Ciro Manex who was well placed in front of the goal fired away a dangerous shot that in the 19thth minute tested the skills of Cosme Amaya when he managed to save the team from getting behind. Ciro Manex struck a weak shot in the 20th minute. Cosme Amaya didn't even have to move as the ball rolled over the line well wide of the goal. A wasted opportunity for Berazategui FC. Cosme Amaya made a fantastic save in the 28th minute, when Fausto Oliveiro sent off a good shot on target. When Ciro Manex in the 31st play minute got the chance to kick a hard shot on goal from short distance neither the defense or Cosme Amaya kept up with the ball and suddenly the score was 2-1 when the ball slipped into goal inside the left pole. In the 35th minute Inocencio Raymundo shot on, it seemed, an open goal, but Benedicto Prejun saw the ball coming and threw himself on it before it passed the goal line. Benedicto Prejun showed brilliant goalkeeper skills when he caught the ball after a hard shot from Inocencio Raymundo in the 38th minute of the match. After some fancy dribbling in the 40th minute, Ciro Manex managed to get in a good position for a shot. Berazategui FC's supporters rose to their feet, but Ciro Manex was a bit off balance and shot the ball just wide of the left post. Cosme Amaya breathed a sigh of relief and went to take the goal kick. Arana's Cosme Amaya played magnificently when he managed to stop the ball from hitting the goal, after a sharp shot by Ciro Manex in the 44th minute of play. The audience thought a goal was coming when Fausto Oliveiro got free with Cosme Amaya in the 46th minute, but the goalkeeper managed to catch the ball with a huge effort. Filomeno Olivar hit a great freekick 47 minutes into the match. No-one was surprised that the home team were leading 2-1 at half-time.

The wind increased when Ciro Manex made the kick off in the second half. In the 57th minute, Filomeno Olivar hit a crossing free kick to the open man running down the field. Ciro Manex received a nice pass in the box and took a hard shot in the 59th minute. Cosme Amaya tensed up and prepared to dive, but the shot went over the goal with him having to interfere. In the 61stth minute of the game Ciro Manex who was perfectly placed tried to make a shot on goal, but Arana's Cosme Amaya was lucky and managed to grab hold of the ball. Cosme Amaya took care of the ball after a well-directed shot from Fausto Oliveiro, even though the ball almost passed him on his left side. If Ciro Manex had kept his shot down it would have been a goal in the 74th minute. The ball went over the crossbar and out instead. Inocencio Raymundo received a nice pass in the box and took a hard shot in the 77th minute. Benedicto Prejun tensed up and prepared to dive, but the shot went over the goal with him having to interfere. 79 minutes into the match, Arana's goal looked a bit too open when Ciro Manex came free, but Cosme Amaya reached the ball before it rolled over the goal line. Arana's Celso Elia got a good chance for a goal in the 87th minute, but he totally mistimed the shot and it went over the crossbar. After 88 minutes, Clemente Galo mouthed his way into the referee's book. The tension between the Arana and the Berazategui FC players grew even worse after the yellow card. Clemente Galo kicked well hit freekick during the 88th minute of the match. Cosme Amaya showed his good apprehension of the play when he made a fantastic save on a shot from Ciro Manex, who was totally free with the ball in the 89th minute. After a rather tough play, Arana's Miguel Barea got a free kick in the 93rd minute. For all the effort they put into the match, the Arana players left disappointed. They had fought hard, but couldn't break down the home team's defense. The match ended in a win for Berazategui FC.
