Spectators: 7285 (Terracing: 5466, Seating: 1675, VIP seats: 144) Dark clouds were building up when the players entered the field. None of the them looked very eager to play. Maximino Jesco started the match with the kick off. Aquiles Etxahun might have been able to make a better finish in the 3rd minute when he tried to place a hard shot over Ezequiel Gabirel. Instead the ball went over the crossbar and out. Aquiles Etxahun ran back to his position shaking his head. Ezequiel Gabirel came out of the goal in the 5th minute to try and stop a shot by Helvecia's Samuel Goizeder. But to his dismay, Samuel Goizeder quickly shot the ball in between his legs and into the goal making it 0-1. Samuel Goizeder received a nice pass in the box and took a hard shot in the 8th minute. Ezequiel Gabirel tensed up and prepared to dive, but the shot went over the goal with him having to interfere. In the 10th minute, Samuel Goizeder got an opportunity to score, but he didn't get a solid hit on the ball and ended up kicking it wide of the goal. After 18 minutes of play, Molino FC's Roberto Gabrio made it 1-1 when he simply outclassed the defender marking him and hit a curling shot into the right side of the net. Gavino Norino was left in no man's land by his defense there! Felix Rudolfo made a great header on Helvecia's corner, it was just that Molino FC's Ezequiel Gabirel managed to reach the ball for a save. With a little luck, Helvecia's Gavino Norino got control of the ball when Roberto Gabrio tried to sneak it across the goal line. Epifanio Abeitia recieved an excellent pass in front of the goal in the 42nd minute. Unfortunately, he received the ball on his off foot and could only manage a weak shot that went over the goal. Saturnino Urtun sent away a hard shot on goal in the 44th minute, but the ball went just over the crossbar and out. A very good chance. With a couple of smart ball manuevers Samuel Goizeder in the 47th managed to get into a good position. With a left leg Ezequiel Gabirel saved Molino FC from getting behind.

When the second half was about to start, both teams quickly lined up and Samuel Goizeder made a kick off. Ezequiel Gabirel was a little too slow when Felix Rudolfo got a fine hit on the ball which went right into the goal in the 55th minute. The score was now 1-2. After a defensive mix-up in Molino FC's zone, Epifanio Abeitia stole the ball and had only the goalie to beat. Ezequiel Gabirel came out of the goal and Epifanio Abeitia tried to chip the ball over his head. To his dismay, the ball went over the crossbar and out of play. Samuel Goizeder's shot when he came free in front of the goal in the 61stth minute, Ezequiel Gabirel skillfully showed off with a save to what seemed to be an obvious goal. If Evaristo Indartsu had kept his shot down it would have been a goal in the 65th minute. The ball went over the crossbar instead. Helvecia made a substitution. Lino Mitxel replaced Evaristo Indartsu. Ezequiel Gabirel made a fantastic save in the 68th minute, when Lino Mitxel sent off a good shot on target. Samuel Goizeders short, quick shot in the 69thth minute got Ezequiel Gabirel to make great effort and bar the ball away from getting in.

A very good chance. 76 minutes had been played when some careless play by Molino FC's defense caused the ball to cross the line for a corner. Felix Rudolfo was slow to take the kick. During this time Helvecia's players had a chance to rest. 79 minutes into the game, Maximino Jesco cracked a shot to the right of the goalkeeper, 2-2. Gavino Norino was not in position, and could only watch the ball fly in. In the 85th minute, Samuel Goizeder ran past the defenders and hit a shot which went straight ahead into goal. Ezequiel Gabirel was frozen by the shot and now it was 2-3. Samuel Goizeder struck a weak shot in the 88th minute. Ezequiel Gabirel didn't even have to move as the ball rolled over the line well wide of the goal. A wasted opportunity for Helvecia.

Helvecia's players went to the stands to thank the travelling support. The fan's backing had helped spurr the team on to a fine performance that won them the match.
