Jhony Arena
Spectators: 36 (Terracing: 28, Seating: 8, VIP seats: 0) Dark clouds were building up when the players entered the field. None of the them looked very eager to play.

Antana FC's Unax Basozabal played magnificently when he managed to stop the ball from hitting the goal, after a sharp shot by Guillerme Abello in the 5th minute of play.

Etor Aballe sent away a hard shot on goal in the 11th minute, but the ball went just over the crossbar and out. A very good chance. Saverio Abajas made a wonderful reflex save on a shot from Francesco Mendigoitia in the 15th minute of play. When Etor Aballe came up free with the goalie in the 19th minute, the Jhony FC fans jumped to their feet.

Unax Basozabal was a little too slow when Guillerme Abello got a fine hit on the ball which went right into the goal in the 42nd minute. The score was now 1-0. When the referee blew for the end of the half the home team players were clearly happier, as they went in to the break leading 1-0.
