Spectators: 8020 (Terracing: 6017, Seating: 1844, VIP seats: 159) E➣ PINCHARRATA's Johan-Sebastián Milei started the match with a crisp pass. The crowd had been anticipating this game for weeks and the excitement in the stadium was easily visible. Mario Jesus Jardel recieved an excellent pass in front of the goal in the 8th minute. Unfortunately, he received the ball on his off foot and could only manage a weak shot that went over the goal. 10 minutes into the match, Xentrias's Mario Jesus Jardel sent off a blazing shot straight on target, a shot that Florentino Guillen narrowly saved just below the crossbar. The corner led Xentrias's Robert Ingemarsson to fire away a dangerous shot which Florentino Guillen despite some difficulties managed to get hold on the ball. The audience thought a goal was coming when Chandler Bing got free with Maximilian Strömbom in the 13th minute, but the goalkeeper managed to catch the ball with a huge effort. Rickard Söderberg hit a great freekick 20 minutes into the match. Maximilian Strömbom showed brilliant goalkeeper skills when he caught the ball after a hard shot from Johan-Sebastián Milei in the 22nd minute of the match. The supporters of Xentrias booed when E➣ PINCHARRATA was adjudged a doubtful freekick after 27 match minutes in a wonderful position. Godofredo Odilon didn't get a good kick on the ball. Benjamin Alonso hit a great freekick 30 minutes into the match. 31 minutes into the match, E➣ PINCHARRATA's goal looked a bit too open when Mario Jesus Jardel came free, but Florentino Guillen reached the ball before it rolled over the goal line. 35 minutes into the match, Mario Jesus Jardel notched a goal, 0-1, to the right of E➣ PINCHARRATA's Florentino Guillen.

In the 41st minute, Mario Jesus Jardel made a precise shot to the right of Florentino Guillen. E➣ PINCHARRATA's defense was at fault, and the scoreboard reflected the new score, 0-2. Mario Jesus Jardel scored 0-3 in the 47th match minute with a shot that went into the goal to the right of Florentino Guillen, who was just a little too slow in reacting to the shot.

Godofredo Odilon hit a great ball. Bernabe Gonzalez struck a weak shot in the 61st minute. Florentino Guillen didn't even have to move as the ball rolled over the line well wide of the goal. A wasted opportunity for Xentrias. 62 minutes into the match, Bernabe Gonzalez dribbled the ball past the defender and swiftly kicked the ball to the left of Florentino Guillen, 0-4.

Florentino Guillen was frozen by the shot and now it was 0-6. Bernabe Gonzalez might have been able to make a better finish in the 89th minute when he tried to place a hard shot over Florentino Guillen. Instead the ball went over the crossbar and out. Bernabe Gonzalez ran back to his position shaking his head. An unexpectedly hard shot by Bernabe Gonzalez in the 98th minute of play forced E➣ PINCHARRATA's goalkeeper Florentino Guillen to throw himself to the left, to be able to save the ball.
