The referee ignored Locademia's protests and gave Feliberto Iigo a yellow card for diving instead. Feliberto Iigo hit a great freekick 21 minutes into the match. An unexpectedly hard shot by Quico Gibert in the 22nd minute of play forced Locademia's goalkeeper Fermin Garaona to throw himself to the left, to be able to save the ball.

Tabb Barral sent away a hard shot on goal in the 72nd minute, but the ball went just over the crossbar and out. A very good chance. When Cirilo Enaut came up free with the goalie in the 83rd minute, the Locademia fans jumped to their feet. But the shot missed the goal by a fraction of an inch, and the fans sat back down disappointed that Cirilo Enaut couldn't finish the play. After 85 minutes, Eustaquio Orlanda mouthed his way into the referee's book. The tension between the Locademia and the Ciruel Academy players grew even worse after the yellow card. Locademia:s Fermin Garaona showed great skill when he stopped Tabb Barral:s penalty. After some fancy dribbling in the 93rd minute, Quico Gibert managed to get in a good position for a shot. Ciruel Academy's supporters rose to their feet, but Quico Gibert was a bit off balance and shot the ball just wide of the left post. Fermin Garaona breathed a sigh of relief and went to take the goal kick. With a little luck, Locademia's Fermin Garaona got control of the ball when Edelmiro Belalcaraz tried to sneak it across the goal line. Fermin Garaona was out of position in the 97 minute of play, and Quico Gibert capitalized on the mistake with a soft shot into the goal. Quico Gibert really showed his touch with that goal: 1-2.
