Spectators: 8495 (Terracing: 6372, Seating: 1954, VIP seats: 169) Dark clouds were building up when the players entered the field. None of the them looked very eager to play. Goiz Rio started the match with the kick off. After a rather tough play, Franco Canadiense FC's Selmo Illescas got a free kick in the 3rd minute. In the 4th minute, Baristo Capon ran past the defenders and hit a shot which went straight ahead into goal. Zadornin Sirguero was frozen by the shot and now it was 0-1. 8 minutes into the game, Egana AFC's Goiz Rio nearly tore a hole in the net with a booming shot. Zadornin Sirguero made a valiant effort, but he could not reach the ball in time, 0-2. In the 16th minute, Roberto Monteserin got an opportunity to score, but he didn't get a solid hit on the ball and ended up kicking it wide of the goal. Cornelio Segurola charged in rather forcefully in the 20th minute of the match, and managed to knock his opponent down. The referee showed Cornelio Segurola the yellow card, and asked the players to shake hands before continuing play. After 20 played minutes Franco Canadiense FC got a freekick which was hit by Cornelio Segurola. The Egana AFC fans' excitement grew in the 23rd match minute when Egana AFC's Goiz Rio looked to have a clear shot with the ball near the goal. The shot wasn't hard, but the ball still rolled over the goal line to make it 0-5 before the goalkeeper had a chance to intervene. 26 minutes into the game, Dagoberto Prus cracked a shot to the right of the goalkeeper, 0-6. Zadornin Sirguero was not in position, and could only watch the ball fly in. 31 minutes into the game, Lorien Mayo was given a yellow card after he appeared to trip an opposing player. Franco Canadiense FC's manager was livid on the sidelines, but the referee was unmoved and gave Egana AFC the free kick. Lorien Mayo kicked well hit freekick during the 31st minute of the match. In the 34th minute, Goiz Rio ran past the defenders and hit a shot which went straight ahead into goal. Zadornin Sirguero was frozen by the shot and now it was 0-7. An unexpectedly hard shot by Lazaro Oyuelos in the 39th minute of play forced Egana AFC's goalkeeper Benjamin Danzo to throw himself to the left, to be able to save the ball. In the 41st minute the ball was on its way in behind Franco Canadiense FC's goalkeeper Zadornin Sirguero, but with the help of a sacrificing defense, he could catch the ball at the crossbar. The supporters of Egana AFC booed when Franco Canadiense FC was adjudged a doubtful freekick after 42 match minutes in a wonderful position. Selmo Illescas didn't get a good kick on the ball. Baristo Capon might have been able to make a better finish in the 42nd minute when he tried to place a hard shot over Zadornin Sirguero. Instead the ball went over the crossbar and out. Baristo Capon ran back to his position shaking his head.

Both teams looked relatively alert before the second half when the referee blew his whistle to tell Lazaro Oyuelos to make the kick off. If Goiz Rio had kept his shot down it would have been a goal in the 54th minute. The ball went over the crossbar and out instead. In the 58th minute, Cornelio Segurola hit a crossing free kick to the open man running down the field. If Miroslaw Wiatrak had kept his shot down it would have been a goal in the 64th minute. The ball went over the crossbar and out instead. In the 73rd minute Dagoberto Prus shot on, it seemed, an open goal, but Zadornin Sirguero saw the ball coming and threw himself on it before it passed the goal line. Goiz Rio was extremely unlucky when he, in the 74th minute, took a shot that hit the right post and went out. After 76 minutes of play, Egana AFC's Miroslaw Wiatrak made it 0-9 when he simply outclassed the defender marking him and hit a curling shot into the right side of the net. Zadornin Sirguero was left in no man's land by his defense there! Goiz Rio fired away a screaming shot towards the goal in the 89th minute, but the shot went just over the crossbar without Zadornin Sirguero having to interfere. When the final whistle sounded Egana AFC left the ground with the victory after a much better performance than Franco Canadiense FC.
