Spectators: 34 (Terracing: 26, Seating: 8, VIP seats: 0) After a rather tough play, Scuole Cristiane CalcioVC's Jacinto Amaral got a free kick in the 2nd minute. In the 6th minute Ciro De Matteis shot on, it seemed, an open goal, but Eugenio Feliziani saw the ball coming and threw himself on it before it passed the goal line. Angelo Lazzaro took care of the ball after a well-directed shot from Felice Granata, even though the ball almost passed him on his left side. In the 10th minute, Scuole Cristiane CalcioVC's Carlo Salomone seemed to kick out at an opponent. The referee saw this and, surprisingly, showed Carlo Salomone the red card, dismissing him from the pitch. The coaching staff of Scuole Cristiane CalcioVC protested bitterly, but the referee would have none of it, and Carlo Salomone had no choice but to slowly walk off the pitch. The referee blew the whistle for a penalty in the 9th minute of the game. One of Scuole Cristiane CalcioVC:s players had nearly got his shirt torn off by an opponent while getting free in front of Marsignano:s goal. The goalkeeper, Angelo Lazzaro, was totally fooled by Marsignano's Fabiano Lorenzi, who 12 minutes into the game made a penalty shot that went in on the goalkeeper's left side. If Ciro De Matteis had kept his shot down it would have been a goal in the 16th minute. The ball went over the crossbar instead. Demetrio Rago in the 23rdth minute had a little luck and got a chance for a shot in front of the goal. Without hesitation aimed to the right of Angelo Lazzaro, who managed to lunge to the right direction and made a save. Arturo Sergi received a nice pass in the box and took a hard shot in the 34th minute. Eugenio Feliziani tensed up and prepared to dive, but the shot went over the goal with him having to interfere. The audience was convinced that Ciro De Matteis's extremely hard shot when he got free in front of the goal was going in, but Eugenio Feliziani was relentless in the 36th minute of the game.

Francesco Masciarelli sent away a hard shot on goal in the 40th minute, but the ball went just over the crossbar and out. A very good chance. Domenico Albertosi fired away a screaming shot towards the goal in the 42nd minute, but the shot went just over the crossbar without Eugenio Feliziani having to interfere. After a rather tough play, Marsignano's Demetrio Rago got a free kick in the 45th minute. When Francesco Masciarelli came up free with the goalie in the 47th minute, the Scuole Cristiane CalcioVC 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 Francesco Masciarelli couldn't finish the play. No-one was surprised that the home team were leading 1-0 at half-time.

Both teams looked relatively alert before the second half when the referee blew his whistle to tell Felice Granata to make the kick off. After a defensive mix-up in Marsignano's zone, Ain Liib stole the ball and had only the goalie to beat. Eugenio Feliziani came out of the goal and Ain Liib tried to chip the ball over his head. To his dismay, the ball went over the crossbar and out of play. 55 minutes into the match, Francesco Masciarelli dribbled the ball past the defender and swiftly kicked the ball to the left of Eugenio Feliziani, 1-1. 59 minutes into the game, Felice Granata cracked a shot to the right of the goalkeeper, 2-1.
