Spectators: 7272 (Terracing: 5456, Seating: 1672, VIP seats: 144) Antonio Hermelando started the match with the kick off in front of an excited audience. 3 minutes into the match, Villa del Parque F.C's goal looked a bit too open when 马昂兴 came free, but Saturnino Nisio reached the ball before it rolled over the goal line. Saturnino Nisio took care of the ball after a well-directed shot from 马昂兴, even though the ball almost passed him on his left side. A hard shot 7 in the game by Antonio Hermelando from a close distance when the talented Kiko Van Hansewyck managed to make a qualified save. Cuquero's players were relieved. Ramon Arnas fired away a screaming shot towards the goal in the 10th minute, but the shot went just over the crossbar without Saturnino Nisio having to interfere. After some fancy dribbling in the 13th minute, 马昂兴 managed to get in a good position for a shot. Cuquero's supporters rose to their feet, but 马昂兴 was a bit off balance and shot the ball just wide of the left post. Saturnino Nisio breathed a sigh of relief and went to take the goal kick. After a defensive mix-up in Cuquero's zone, Florencio Tabb stole the ball and had only the goalie to beat. Kiko Van Hansewyck came out of the goal and Florencio Tabb tried to chip the ball over his head. To his dismay, the ball went over the crossbar and out of play. 18 minutes into the game, Ramiro Bartuelo was given a yellow card after he appeared to trip an opposing player. Villa del Parque F.C's manager was livid on the sidelines, but the referee was unmoved and gave Cuquero the free kick.

Saturnino Nisio showed his good apprehension of the play when he made a fantastic save on a shot from 马昂兴, who was totally free with the ball in the 25th minute. 马昂兴 sent away a hard shot on goal in the 27th minute, but the ball went just over the crossbar and out. A very good chance. If Florencio Tabb had kept his shot down it would have been a goal in the 32nd minute. The ball went over the crossbar and out instead. After 35 played minutes Villa del Parque F.C got a freekick which was hit by Gabriel Pereyra. 马昂兴 scored 0-1 in the 38th match minute with a shot that went into the goal to the right of Saturnino Nisio, who was just a little too slow in reacting to the shot. 马昂兴 struck a weak shot in the 45th minute. Saturnino Nisio didn't even have to move as the ball rolled over the line well wide of the goal. A wasted opportunity for Cuquero. After 46 played minutes Villa del Parque F.C got a freekick which was hit by Gabriel Pereyra.

The players of the home team were most fresh-looking when they entered the field to play the second half. 马昂兴 was the one to do the kick off. If Antonio Hermelando had kept his shot down it would have been a goal in the 60th minute. The ball went over the crossbar and out instead. Antonio Hermelando received a nice pass in the box and took a hard shot in the 68th minute. Kiko Van Hansewyck tensed up and prepared to dive, but the shot went over the goal with him having to interfere. Kiko Van Hansewyck made a wonderful reflex save on a shot from Antonio Hermelando in the 72nd minute of play. If Ramon Arnas had kept his shot down it would have been a goal in the 75th minute. The ball went over the crossbar instead. The audience was convinced that Antonio Hermelando's extremely hard shot when he got free in front of the goal was going in, but Kiko Van Hansewyck was relentless in the 77th minute of the game. When 马昂兴 came up free with the goalie in the 86th minute, the Cuquero 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 马昂兴 couldn't finish the play. In the 90th match minute, Villa del Parque F.C was awarded a freekick, the ball was picked up by Ramiro Bartuelo to maneuver through the defense. The Cuquero supporters could be heard counting down the last seconds of the match. They errupted in celebration when the whistle blew, knowing Cuquero would go home with victory in their luggage after a match that easily could have ended differently.
