Spectators: 32 (Terracing: 25, Seating: 7, VIP seats: 0) The mood of the audience was pleasant when Mariano Oalo made the kick off which started today's match. When Dario Gar came up free with the goalie in the 6th minute, the CSD Zamba 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 Dario Gar couldn't finish the play. Dario Gar sent away a hard shot on goal in the 8th minute, but the ball went just over the crossbar and out. A very good chance. After a rather tough play, CSD Zamba's Froilan Garaile got a free kick in the 12th minute. Benedicto Arnalt took a chance and fired a shot far from the goal in the 13th minute, but it turned out to be a dangerous situation for Genaro Hermelando.

Dario Gar ran back to his position shaking his head. Angelo Jacindo hit a great freekick 32 minutes into the match. In the 36th minute, Tadeo Matia hit a crossing free kick to the open man running down the field. If Jonathan Chago had kept his shot down it would have been a goal in the 38th minute.
