Spectators: 5000 (Terracing: 4000, Seating: 1000, VIP seats: 0) It was fairly windy and cold on the field when Jacinto Haitz kicked off to start the match. If Lorenzo Ederono had kept his shot down it would have been a goal in the 3rd minute. The ball went over the crossbar and out instead. Lorenzo Ederono sent away a hard shot on goal in the 6th minute, but the ball went just over the crossbar and out. A very good chance. 7 minutes into the game, Pedro Salvadore was given a yellow card after he appeared to trip an opposing player. Cieneguillas's manager was livid on the sidelines, but the referee was unmoved and gave Usno the free kick. After a rather tough play, Cieneguillas's Pedro Salvadore got a free kick in the 7th minute. Albino Raphael showed his good apprehension of the play when he made a fantastic save on a shot from Lorenzo Ederono, who was totally free with the ball in the 9th minute. In the 11th minute, Lorenzo Ederono ran past the defenders and hit a shot which went straight ahead into goal. Albino Raphael was frozen by the shot and now it was 0-1. 16 minutes into the match, Candido Gaxan had an open shot that he just couldn't miss and scored to the right of Albino Raphael. Usno's manager could be seen yelling to the referee that Candido Gaxan was offside, but the referee ignored the protest. 0-2. After 20 minutes of play, the referee blew the whistle. It was a penalty for Usno! Albino Raphael showed brilliant goalkeeper skills when he caught the ball after a hard shot from Edgard Clodio in the 28th minute of the match. Justo Nalo was in the perfect position, and the defense had done a good job marking him, but Jacinto Haitz showcased his skills and made a perfect shot to score 1-2 in the 32 minute of play. When Jacinto Haitz came up free with the goalie in the 37th minute, the Usno 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 Jacinto Haitz couldn't finish the play. In the 43rd minute, Candido Gaxan 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 the first half Cieneguillas were leading 1-2. They had played with great self confidence throughout the first half and fully deserved their lead.

The wind increased when Candido Gaxan made the kick off in the second half. Albino Raphael took care of the ball after a well-directed shot from Pedro Salvadore, even though the ball almost passed him on his left side. When Anacleto Bizen fell near the penalty area in the 58th minute he thought he would be awarded a free kick. The referee ignored Usno's protests and gave Anacleto Bizen a yellow card for diving instead. Anacleto Bizen kicked well hit freekick during the 58th minute of the match. Jacinto Haitz might have been able to make a better finish in the 68th minute when he tried to place a hard shot over Justo Nalo. Instead the ball went over the crossbar and out. Jacinto Haitz ran back to his position shaking his head. 70 minutes into the match, Usno's Marcelo Astigar sent off a blazing shot straight on target, a shot that Justo Nalo narrowly saved just below the crossbar. After some fancy dribbling in the 76th minute, Robustiano Basualdo managed to get in a good position for a shot. Usno's supporters rose to their feet, but Robustiano Basualdo was a bit off balance and shot the ball just wide of the left post. Justo Nalo breathed a sigh of relief and went to take the goal kick. After having played for 79 minutes, Edgard Clodio managed to get in a good position for a shot on goal. Cieneguillas's supporters crossed their fingers, but Edgard Clodio was, after a quick turn that froze the defenders, out of balance and shot the ball just to the right of the goal. Jacinto Haitz might have been able to make a better finish in the 83rd minute when he tried to place a hard shot over Justo Nalo. Instead the ball went over the crossbar and out. Jacinto Haitz ran back to his position shaking his head. In the 83rd minute Jacinto Haitz shot on, it seemed, an open goal, but Justo Nalo saw the ball coming and threw himself on it before it passed the goal line. 86 minutes into the match, Cieneguillas's goal looked a bit too open when Jacinto Haitz came free, but Justo Nalo reached the ball before it rolled over the goal line.
