Spectators: 32 (Terracing: 25, Seating: 7, VIP seats: 0) It was fairly windy and cold on the field when Siro Leizarraga kicked off to start the match.

Guillermo Gartzen struck a weak shot in the 15th minute. Arnulfo Orzaize didn't even have to move as the ball rolled over the line well wide of the goal. A wasted opportunity for RACING SOLCHU CLUB. 17 minutes into the match, RACING SOLCHU CLUB's goalkeeper Ermegildo Mingo had to clear away a ball on his right side after a cunning shot by Fabricio Llorenc. Arnulfo Orzaize didn't have a chance when a screaming shot from Rosendo Uhin went, in the 21st minute, to the upper right corner, 0-2 was the resulting score.

After a defensive mix-up in Pericote AFC's zone, Rosendo Uhin stole the ball and had only the goalie to beat. Arnulfo Orzaize came out of the goal and Rosendo Uhin tried to chip the ball over his head. To his dismay, the ball went over the crossbar and out of play. A collision led to Pericote AFC getting a freekick after 47 minutes play. Alfonso Kelemen hit a great ball.

The wind increased when Rafael Froila made the kick off in the second half. 54 minutes had been played when some careless play by Pericote AFC's defense caused the ball to cross the line for a corner. Rafael Froila was slow to take the kick. During this time RACING SOLCHU CLUB's players had a chance to rest. After some fancy dribbling in the 57th minute, Rosendo Uhin managed to get in a good position for a shot. RACING SOLCHU CLUB's supporters rose to their feet, but Rosendo Uhin was a bit off balance and shot the ball just wide of the left post. Arnulfo Orzaize breathed a sigh of relief and went to take the goal kick. If Rosendo Uhin had kept his shot down it would have been a goal in the 60th minute. The ball went over the crossbar and out instead. Rosendo Uhin recieved an excellent pass in front of the goal in the 63rd minute. Unfortunately, he received the ball on his off foot and could only manage a weak shot that went over the goal.

When Rosendo Uhin came up free with the goalie in the 73rd minute, the RACING SOLCHU CLUB fans jumped to their feet.
