Estadio Loreto
Spectators: 32 (Terracing: 25, Seating: 7, VIP seats: 0) The sun was shining, the grass was green and the audience cheered when Ricardo Poncio got the match started through his kick off. An unexpectedly hard shot by Celedonio Johans in the 3rd minute of play forced Goya AFC's goalkeeper Pascual Donostia to throw himself to the left, to be able to save the ball. Pascual Donostia was in exellent shape and made a fantastic save when he, in the 8th minute of the match, managed to get hold of the ball after a long shot from Silverio Ongile. Goya AFC's Augusto Celino got a good chance for a goal in the 11th minute, but he totally mistimed the shot and it went over the crossbar. Cipriano Cordairo showed brilliant goalkeeper skills when he caught the ball after a hard shot from Pedro Distiratsu in the 18th minute of the match. Domingos Chago's late challenge caught a Goya AFC's player on the shin and left him crawling around in pain. The referee blew his whistle and produced the yellow card. Domingos Chago helped the player get up and apologised. After 18 played minutes Loreto got a freekick which was hit by Domingos Chago. In the 29th minute, Amancio Aznaro got an opportunity to score, but he didn't get a solid hit on the ball and ended up kicking it wide of the goal. When Pedro Distiratsu came up free with the goalie in the 31st minute, the Goya AFC 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 Pedro Distiratsu couldn't finish the play. When Lázaro Firmo fell near the penalty area in the 33rd minute he thought he would be awarded a free kick. The referee ignored Loreto's protests and gave Lázaro Firmo a yellow card for diving instead. After a rather tough play, Loreto's Lázaro Firmo got a free kick in the 33rd minute. In the 36th match minute, Loreto was awarded a freekick, the ball was picked up by Lázaro Firmo to maneuver through the defense.

Pedro Distiratsu struck a weak shot in the 45th minute. Cipriano Cordairo didn't even have to move as the ball rolled over the line well wide of the goal. A wasted opportunity for Goya AFC. If Amancio Aznaro had kept his shot down it would have been a goal in the 47th minute. The ball went over the crossbar and out instead.

Lucas Nafarroa hit a great freekick 52 minutes into the match. Pedro Distiratsu might have been able to make a better finish in the 53rd minute when he tried to place a hard shot over Cipriano Cordairo. Instead the ball went over the crossbar and out. Pedro Distiratsu ran back to his position shaking his head. Augusto Celino fired away a screaming shot towards the goal in the 54th minute, but the shot went just over the crossbar without Cipriano Cordairo having to interfere.

Goya AFC's manager was livid on the sidelines, but the referee was unmoved and gave Loreto the free kick. After 66 played minutes Goya AFC got a freekick which was hit by Maximo Lugo. The audience thought a goal was coming when Pedro Distiratsu got free with Cipriano Cordairo in the 70th minute, but the goalkeeper managed to catch the ball with a huge effort.

Amancio Aznaro sent away a hard shot on goal in the 89th minute, but the ball went just over the crossbar and out. A very good chance.
