Spectators: 40 (Terracing: 31, Seating: 9, VIP seats: 0) It was fairly windy and cold on the field when Ed Skittrall kicked off to start the match. In the 8th minute Kenneth Limmer shot on, it seemed, an open goal, but Cesar Toribio saw the ball coming and threw himself on it before it passed the goal line. Delmiro Luzea charged in rather forcefully in the 13th minute of the match, and managed to knock his opponent down. The referee showed Delmiro Luzea the yellow card, and asked the players to shake hands before continuing play. A hard shot by Braedan Wayland from long distance, 14 minutes into the match, got Cesar Toribio's attention. Through a fast twist with his body, he could stop the ball from going in on his right side. The crowd rose to their feet as Kenneth Limmer kicked a wonderful shot that went in to the left of a diving Cesar Toribio. That made the score 1-0 in the 18 minute of play. Elderslie Magpies's Corder Clubley played magnificently when he managed to stop the ball from hitting the goal, after a sharp shot by Angelino Lastur in the 22nd minute of play. Nicasio Ermano sent away a hard shot on goal in the 23rd minute, but the ball went just over the crossbar and out. A very good chance. In the 25thth minute of the game Arsenio Cordarrel who was perfectly placed tried to make a shot on goal, but Elderslie Magpies's Corder Clubley was lucky and managed to grab hold of the ball. After 25 played minutes ARMUS S.A. OFF got a freekick which was hit by Timoteo Quirce. ARMUS S.A. OFF's Cesar Toribio proved his good apprehension of play when he, in the 31st minute of the match, managed to save ARMUS S.A. OFF from getting a goal against them. In the 33rd minute, Arsenio Cordarrel ran past the defenders and hit a shot which went straight ahead into goal. Corder Clubley was frozen by the shot and now it was 1-1. The supporters of Elderslie Magpies booed when ARMUS S.A. OFF was adjudged a doubtful freekick after 38 match minutes in a wonderful position. Angelino Lastur didn't get a good kick on the ball. After 48 played minutes ARMUS S.A. OFF got a freekick which was hit by Leonides Unai. After recieving a nice pass, Elderslie Magpies's Braedan Wayland tried to score from far away in the 48th minute, but the ball went over the crossbar. The score stood at 1-1 when the half time whistle went. Both sets of players seemed reasonably pleased with how the match was going.

Both teams looked relatively alert before the second half when the referee blew his whistle to tell Arsenio Cordarrel to make the kick off. Jess Haslett made a great header on Elderslie Magpies's corner, it was just that ARMUS S.A. OFF's Cesar Toribio managed to reach the ball for a save. Arsenio Cordarrel recieved an excellent pass in front of the goal in the 56th minute. Unfortunately, he received the ball on his off foot and could only manage a weak shot that went over the goal. When Paco Smee fell near the penalty area in the 58th minute he thought he would be awarded a free kick. The referee ignored Elderslie Magpies's protests and gave Paco Smee a yellow card for diving instead. Paco Smee kicked well hit freekick during the 58th minute of the match. In the 62nd minute Ed Skittrall shot on, it seemed, an open goal, but Cesar Toribio saw the ball coming and threw himself on it before it passed the goal line. In the 63rd minute, Jess Haslett made a precise shot to the right of Cesar Toribio. ARMUS S.A. OFF's defense was at fault, and the scoreboard reflected the new score, 2-1. When Elderslie Magpies's Ed Skittrall in the 75th minute got a chance for a shot 75th didn't hesitate and placed the ball to the right of the goalie. A beautiful save bye ARMUS S.A. OFF's goalie prevented a goal. Elderslie Magpies's Ben Triplett was substituted for Kenneth Limmer. An unexpectedly hard shot by Angelino Lastur in the 90th minute of play forced Elderslie Magpies's goalkeeper Corder Clubley to throw himself to the left, to be able to save the ball. After a rather tough play, Elderslie Magpies's Paco Smee got a free kick in the 93rd minute. After 95 minutes, Basilio Fortun mouthed his way into the referee's book. The tension between the ARMUS S.A. OFF and the Elderslie Magpies players grew even worse after the yellow card. A collision led to ARMUS S.A. OFF getting a freekick after 95 minutes play. Basilio Fortun hit a great ball.
