Spectators: 7069 (Terracing: 5407, Seating: 1657, VIP seats: 5) The field was rather wet after several days of rain when Ambrosio Truylos took the kick off in the first half of the match. Cirilo Lano received a nice pass in the box and took a hard shot in the 5th minute. Israel Perico tensed up and prepared to dive, but the shot went over the goal with him having to interfere. Sñupi's Prospero Gonchan got a good chance for a goal in the 12th minute, but he totally mistimed the shot and it went over the crossbar. In the 17th minute, Fernando Mikelats made a precise shot to the right of Francisco Columbo. Sñupi's defense was at fault, and the scoreboard reflected the new score, 0-1. The supporters of Sñupi booed when Drogocop Futbol Club was adjudged a doubtful freekick after 19 match minutes in a wonderful position. Vladimiro Napier didn't get a good kick on the ball. With his leg Israel Perico managed to avoid a goal in the 20thth minute, when Sñupi's Cirilo Lano fired away a shot with a lot of spin towards his right hand side. In the 24th minute, Drogocop Futbol Club's goalie took a deep sigh of relief after Silvestre Cebo fired away a hard shot that went just outside the left post. Cirilo Lano sent away a hard shot on goal in the 30th minute, but the ball went just over the crossbar and out. A very good chance. Silvestre Cebo fired away a screaming shot towards the goal in the 41st minute, but the shot went just over the crossbar without Israel Perico having to interfere. Israel Perico made a wonderful reflex save on a shot from Silvestre Cebo in the 43rd minute of play. After 45 played minutes Drogocop Futbol Club got a freekick which was hit by Geronimo Guillelme. Silvestre Cebo took the ball and in the 46 minute, shot a rapid shot to the right of a surprised Israel Perico. Israel Perico dived to the right, and did manage to get a hand on the shot, but it still went into the right corner making it 1-1. After fighting hard for a draw in the first half, the players were able to take a much needed rest.

Both teams looked relatively alert before the second half when the referee blew his whistle to tell Silvestre Cebo to make the kick off. Sñupi's Francisco Columbo proved his good apprehension of play when he, in the 55th minute of the match, managed to save Sñupi from getting a goal against them.

In the 60th minute the ball was on its way in behind Drogocop Futbol Club's goalkeeper Israel Perico, but with the help of a sacrificing defense, he could catch the ball at the crossbar. 61 minutes into the game, Vladimiro Napier was given a yellow card after he appeared to trip an opposing player. Drogocop Futbol Club's manager was livid on the sidelines, but the referee was unmoved and gave Sñupi the free kick. Drogocop Futbol Club's Israel Perico played magnificently when he managed to stop the ball from hitting the goal, after a sharp shot by Silvestre Cebo in the 65th minute of play. After 66 minutes of play, Sñupi's Cirilo Lano made it 2-1 when he simply outclassed the defender marking him and hit a curling shot into the right side of the net. Israel Perico was left in no man's land by his defense there! After 73 played minutes, Drogocop Futbol Club's David Gitano shot from a long distance, and at first it looked like the ball was going into the goal, but the goalkeeper Francisco Columbo came through and got his fingers on the ball before it flew over the goal line. He then quickly gripped the ball tighter before the forwards in Drogocop Futbol Club reached it. If Ambrosio Truylos had kept his shot down it would have been a goal in the 76th minute. The ball went over the crossbar and out instead. The long shot by Ramiro Ponc in the 80th minute really tested Francisco Columbo's skills. The ball was on its way into the goal to the left of him when he managed to stretch himself and save the shot and avoid a goal.

Silvestre Cebo's shot was meant for the net just under the crossbar, but Israel Perico read the situation well and was quickly in position to make a wonderful save in the 96th minute of play. The crowd rose to their feet and cheered when the referee blew the final whistle. Sñupi had won after a very even match.
