Spectators: 42 (Terracing: 32, Seating: 10, VIP seats: 0) It was fairly windy and cold on the field when Elian Müller kicked off to start the match. After 3 played minutes Aragorn got a freekick which was hit by Tony Stark. Sigfrido Auletta received a nice pass in the box and took a hard shot in the 9th minute. Andrés Casado tensed up and prepared to dive, but the shot went over the goal with him having to interfere. Elian Müller could have scored with his fast shot on goal in the 19th minute of the match, but Flavio Vittori made a huge save. In the 20th minute, Fedele Moretti ran past the defenders and hit a shot which went straight ahead into goal. Flavio Vittori was frozen by the shot and now it was 1-0. In the 26th minute Zaccheo Andolina shot on, it seemed, an open goal, but Andrés Casado saw the ball coming and threw himself on it before it passed the goal line. Through an outstanding action, after 29 minutes, Flavio Vittori successfully got his hands on the ball before it slid into the goal at the right post. After a defensive mix-up in Italy's zone, Elian Müller stole the ball and had only the goalie to beat. Flavio Vittori came out of the goal and Elian Müller tried to chip the ball over his head. To his dismay, the ball went over the crossbar and out of play. Aragorn's Feliks Orszak managed, thanks to a brazen rush, stole the ball on a throw-in made by Eliseo Cutri in the 38 minute of the game. Feliks Orszak hit a great freekick 40 minutes into the match. Andrés Casado took care of the ball after a well-directed shot from Sigfrido Auletta, even though the ball almost passed him on his left side. Flavio Vittori had great luck who in the 44thth minute grab hold of the ball when Elian Müller from a short distance tried to put the ball inside the right post. 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.

The players of the away team seemed most concentrated when Zaccheo Andolina stepped up to make the kick off in the second half. Andrés Casado made a wonderful reflex save on a shot from Zaccheo Andolina in the 54th minute of play. Dario Bertoni hit a great freekick 56 minutes into the match. The supporters of Italy booed when Aragorn was adjudged a doubtful freekick after 60 match minutes in a wonderful position. Dario Bertoni didn't get a good kick on the ball. Andrés Casado made a fantastic save in the 67th minute, when Sigfrido Auletta sent off a good shot on target. Feliks Orszak kicked well hit freekick during the 69th minute of the match. A sloppy throw-in by Gianpaolo Mascari in the 70th minute of the game went astray and was snapped up by Aragorn's Wade Wilson. In the 79th minute, Italy's Sigfrido Auletta dribbled the ball into the box and hit a shot with the outside of his foot, sending the keeper the wrong way. 1-1. 84 minutes into the match, Italy's goal looked a bit too open when Dario Bertoni came free, but Flavio Vittori reached the ball before it rolled over the goal line. 87 minutes in the game, Siricio Liotta fired away an excellent shot, which passed to the side of the right post without Andrés Casado having to interfere. Zaccheo Andolinas short, quick shot in the 87thth minute got Andrés Casado to make great effort and bar the ball away from getting in. Italy's Adriano Curto was substituted for Zaccheo Andolina. 90 minutes had been played when some careless play by Aragorn's defense caused the ball to cross the line for a corner. Siricio Liotta was slow to take the kick. During this time Italy's players had a chance to rest. Adriano Curto had several of the Aragorn's defenders around him in the penalty area when he, after 91 minutes of play, received a pass and succeeded in some way to shoot a shot which went straight ahead into goal. This resulted in a 1-2 score and a disappointed Andrés Casado as he didn't even see the shot coming. When the match was over Italy could go home with a victory in their luggage, having controlled the game far better than Aragorn throughout the match.
