It was a penalty for C. A Chipa y Terere! Maximo Bas had in the 21stth minute some difficulties stopping David Bizi's well aimed penalty as it nearly passed him on his left side, but he still managed to hold the ball. When Esteve Agado fell near the penalty area in the 25th minute he thought he would be awarded a free kick. The referee ignored C.

Esteve Agado sent away a hard shot on goal in the 37th minute, but the ball hit the crossbar and went out. A very good chance for a goal.

Johans Gavela's shot was meant for the net just under the crossbar, but Gino Bessone read the situation well and was quickly in position to make a wonderful save in the 65th minute of play.
