Estadio Palmita
Spectators: 32 (Terracing: 25, Seating: 7, VIP seats: 0) Dark clouds were building up when the players entered the field. None of the them looked very eager to play. Elpidio Osoro started the match with the kick off. In the 5th minute the ball was on its way in behind Palmita FC's goalkeeper Amador Ganix, but with the help of a sacrificing defense, he could catch the ball at the crossbar. If Maximo Casado had kept his shot down it would have been a goal in the 10th minute. The ball went over the crossbar and out instead. Maximo Casado received a nice pass in the box and took a hard shot in the 12th minute. 梅兴天 tensed up and prepared to dive, but the shot went over the goal with him having to interfere. 梅兴天 showed brilliant goalkeeper skills when he caught the ball after a hard shot from Marcos Guerau in the 15th minute of the match. Gervasio Egoi fired away a screaming shot towards the goal in the 17th minute, but the shot went just over the crossbar without Amador Ganix having to interfere. After a rather tough play, Palmita FC's Gilberto Ted got a free kick in the 18th minute. 梅兴天 stood for a superb save when he managed to get hold of Marcos Guerau's shot from short distance in the 21st minute. Amador Ganix came out of the goal in the 23rd minute to try and stop a shot by Padua FC's Gervasio Egoi. But to his dismay, Gervasio Egoi quickly shot the ball in between his legs and into the goal making it 0-1. An unexpectedly hard shot by Marcos Guerau in the 29th minute of play forced Padua FC's goalkeeper 梅兴天 to throw himself to the left, to be able to save the ball. If Marcos Guerau had kept his shot down it would have been a goal in the 31st minute. The ball went over the crossbar and out instead. After some careless play in the Padua FC defense, Marcos Guerau kicked a shot that curved into the net to the right of 梅兴天. The Padua FC fans voiced their displeasure as they felt that 梅兴天 should have stopped the shot. Federico Isaio kicked well hit freekick during the 40th minute of the match. Palmita FC's Maximo Casado got a good chance for a goal in the 44th minute, but he totally mistimed the shot and it went over the crossbar. After the first half the score was level. The break gave the players a chance to catch their breath, whilst the managers went over the tactics with them again.

Both teams looked relatively alert before the second half when the referee blew his whistle to tell Marcos Guerau to make the kick off. Maximo Casado struck a weak shot in the 51st minute. 梅兴天 didn't even have to move as the ball rolled over the line well wide of the goal. A wasted opportunity for Palmita FC. In the 53rd minute Maximo Casado shot on, it seemed, an open goal, but 梅兴天 saw the ball coming and threw himself on it before it passed the goal line. In the 57th play minute Elpidio Osoro came free and shot an unsuspected shot which went into goal from the right pole behind a surprised Amador Ganix. 1-2. After 63 played minutes Palmita FC got a freekick which was hit by Baltasar Savion. In the 67th match minute, Padua FC was awarded a freekick, the ball was picked up by Saverio Cugat to maneuver through the defense. Javier Ereinotz might have been able to make a better finish in the 70th minute when he tried to place a hard shot over 梅兴天. Instead the ball went over the crossbar and out. Javier Ereinotz ran back to his position shaking his head. Amador Ganix made a wonderful reflex save on a shot from Elpidio Osoro in the 80th minute of play. In the 83rd minute, Marcos Guerau ran past the defenders and hit a shot which went straight ahead into goal. 梅兴天 was frozen by the shot and now it was 3-2. In the 88th match minute, Padua FC was awarded a freekick, the ball was picked up by Tomás Inko to maneuver through the defense. Maximo Casado sent away a hard shot on goal in the 91st minute, but the ball went just over the crossbar and out. A very good chance. When Marcos Guerau came up free with the goalie in the 94th minute, the Palmita FC 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 Marcos Guerau couldn't finish the play. 95 minutes into the game, Maximo Casado cracked a shot to the right of the goalkeeper, 4-2. 梅兴天 was not in position, and could only watch the ball fly in. When the referee ended the match the Palmita FC players were able to celebrate. They had won a fair victory and recieved the ovations of their fans.
