Estadio Pantanillo
Spectators: 32 (Terracing: 25, Seating: 7, VIP seats: 0) It was fairly windy and cold on the field when Tomás Innocenzio kicked off to start the match. Gaudencio Celino showed his good apprehension of the play when he made a fantastic save on a shot from Anier Donzel, who was totally free with the ball in the 3rd minute. With a little luck, Palma FC's Albano Poncio got control of the ball when Silvano Tebaldo tried to sneak it across the goal line. In the 6th minute, Arnaldo Gizon hit a crossing free kick to the open man running down the field. Tomás Innocenzio fired away a screaming shot towards the goal in the 9th minute, but the shot went just over the crossbar without Albano Poncio having to interfere. A hard shot 12 in the game by Silvano Tebaldo from a close distance when the talented Albano Poncio managed to make a qualified save. Palma FC's players were relieved. Anier Donzel struck a weak shot in the 14th minute. Gaudencio Celino didn't even have to move as the ball rolled over the line well wide of the goal. A wasted opportunity for Palma FC. Mauricio Patxi fired away a screaming shot towards the goal in the 16th minute, but the shot went just over the crossbar without Gaudencio Celino having to interfere. Pantanillo's Silvano Tebaldo got a good chance for a goal in the 18th minute, but he totally mistimed the shot and it went over the crossbar. If Mauricio Patxi had kept his shot down it would have been a goal in the 25th minute. The ball went over the crossbar and out instead. In the 27th minute Mauricio Patxi shot on, it seemed, an open goal, but Gaudencio Celino saw the ball coming and threw himself on it before it passed the goal line. An unexpectedly hard shot by Anier Donzel in the 29th minute of play forced Pantanillo's goalkeeper Gaudencio Celino to throw himself to the left, to be able to save the ball. Anier Donzel received a nice pass in the box and took a hard shot in the 32nd minute. Gaudencio Celino tensed up and prepared to dive, but the shot went over the goal with him having to interfere. Silvano Tebaldo was really disappointed when he shot the ball just outside the right post instead of scoring a goal in the 36th minute. Pantanillo's manager could be seen on the sidelines shaking his head and muttering to himself as his team had just wasted another chance. Tomás Innocenzio sent away a hard shot on goal in the 38th minute, but the ball went just over the crossbar and out. A very good chance. 41 minutes into the match, Palma FC's goal looked a bit too open when Tomás Innocenzio came free, but Albano Poncio reached the ball before it rolled over the goal line. 42 minutes into the match, Palma FC's goalkeeper Albano Poncio had to clear away a ball on his right side after a cunning shot by Silvano Tebaldo. Donato Jaume kicked well hit freekick during the 46th minute of the match. In the 48th minute, Silvano Tebaldo 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. The first half was very even, with the score at 0-0 when the whistle went for half-time. The players welcomed the break and quickly retired to the dressing rooms.

Pantanillo's goalkeeper couldn't reach when Mauricio Patxi 55 minutes into the game got a good kick on the ball which found its way into goal just inside left pole. 0-1. Mauricio Patxi received a nice pass in the box and took a hard shot in the 60th minute. Gaudencio Celino tensed up and prepared to dive, but the shot went over the goal with him having to interfere. Gaudencio Celino was out of position in the 63 minute of play, and Mauricio Patxi capitalized on the mistake with a soft shot into the goal. Mauricio Patxi really showed his touch with that goal: 0-2. After having played for 71 minutes, Mauricio Patxi managed to get in a good position for a shot on goal. Palma FC's supporters crossed their fingers, but Mauricio Patxi was, after a quick turn that froze the defenders, out of balance and shot the ball just to the right of the goal. An unexpected shot in the 75th minute by Mauricio Patxi got the crowd on their feet, but to their dismay it went out on the left side. Albano Poncio showed his good apprehension of the play when he made a fantastic save on a shot from Aldo Kauldi, who was totally free with the ball in the 78th minute. When Mauricio Patxi, who was free, got the in front of the goal in the 79 minute he wasn't focused and tipped the ball just over the goal. The Gaudencio Celino was delighted since the ball would have got in if it had gone under the crossbar. After a defensive mix-up in Pantanillo's zone, Virgilio Gimenez stole the ball and had only the goalie to beat. Gaudencio Celino came out of the goal and Virgilio Gimenez tried to chip the ball over his head. To his dismay, the ball went over the crossbar and out of play.
