Spectators: 7245 (Terracing: 5435, Seating: 1666, VIP seats: 144) It was fairly windy and cold on the field when Ladislao Gitano kicked off to start the match. Cataclismo FC's Serafin Oroitz managed, thanks to a brazen rush, stole the ball on a throw-in made by Leonardo Matthew in the 9 minute of the game. If Domingo Satordi had kept his shot down it would have been a goal in the 15th minute. The ball went over the crossbar and out instead. Cecilio Oto fired away a screaming shot towards the goal in the 18th minute, but the shot went just over the crossbar without Emanuel Pes having to interfere. After a rather tough play, Cataclismo FC's Domingo Satordi got a free kick in the 19th minute. Alejandro Lapurdi showed his good apprehension of the play when he made a fantastic save on a shot from Ladislao Gitano, who was totally free with the ball in the 25th minute. When Cecilio Oto fell near the penalty area in the 26th minute he thought he would be awarded a free kick. The referee ignored L.P. CITY's protests and gave Cecilio Oto a yellow card for diving instead. A collision led to L.P. CITY getting a freekick after 26 minutes play. Cecilio Oto hit a great ball. After having played for 31 minutes, Serafin Oroitz managed to get in a good position for a shot on goal. Cataclismo FC's supporters crossed their fingers, but Serafin Oroitz was, after a quick turn that froze the defenders, out of balance and shot the ball just to the right of the goal. 33 minutes into the game, Bernabe Jaunzuria threw the ball into play from the sideline. Cataclismo FC's Ladislao Gitano quickly snatched the ball and retained possesion. In the 34th minute Ladislao Gitano shot on, it seemed, an open goal, but Alejandro Lapurdi saw the ball coming and threw himself on it before it passed the goal line. Ladislao Gitano sent away a hard shot on goal in the 40th minute, but the ball went just over the crossbar and out. A very good chance. After fighting hard for a draw in the first half, the players were able to take a much needed rest.

The hometeam waved at the audience when it was time for Cecilio Oto to strike the kick off in the second half. Ladislao Gitano recieved an excellent pass in front of the goal in the 54th minute. Unfortunately, he received the ball on his off foot and could only manage a weak shot that went over the goal. Cecilio Oto might have been able to make a better finish in the 56th minute when he tried to place a hard shot over Emanuel Pes. Instead the ball went over the crossbar and out. Cecilio Oto ran back to his position shaking his head. Cecilio Oto sent away a hard shot on goal in the 59th minute, but the ball went just over the crossbar and out. A very good chance. If Cecilio Oto had kept his shot down it would have been a goal in the 60th minute. The ball went over the crossbar and out instead. After a rather tough play, Cataclismo FC's Domingo Satordi got a free kick in the 64th minute. Ladislao Gitano charged in rather forcefully in the 67th minute of the match, and managed to knock his opponent down. The referee showed Ladislao Gitano the yellow card, and asked the players to shake hands before continuing play. After 67 played minutes Cataclismo FC got a freekick which was hit by Ladislao Gitano. An unexpectedly hard shot by Ladislao Gitano in the 70th minute of play forced L.P. CITY's goalkeeper Alejandro Lapurdi to throw himself to the left, to be able to save the ball. After a rather tough play, Cataclismo FC's Domingo Satordi got a free kick in the 81st minute. When Domingo Satordi was, once again, overly rough in his play he received his second yellow card and was ordered off the ground. 82 minutes had been played. Serafin Oroitz fired away a screaming shot towards the goal in the 95th minute, but the shot went just over the crossbar without Alejandro Lapurdi having to interfere.
