Spectators: 7203 (Terracing: 5404, Seating: 1656, VIP seats: 143) The field was rather wet after several days of rain when Cosme Ilixo took the kick off in the first half of the match. Fernan Maiorga took care of the ball after a well-directed shot from Leonel Ibañez, even though the ball almost passed him on his left side. In the 7th minute of the match Bernardino Demesio sent off a long shot with destination to the right of the goalkeeper, but Fernan Maiorga skillfully saved the ball. Quemquemtreu's Leonel Ibañez got a good chance for a goal in the 11th minute, but he totally mistimed the shot and it went over the crossbar. In the 15th minute Leonel Ibañez shot on, it seemed, an open goal, but Fernan Maiorga saw the ball coming and threw himself on it before it passed the goal line. Bernardino Demesio's late challenge caught a ֎ Atlanta ֎'s player on the shin and left him crawling around in pain. The referee blew his whistle and produced the yellow card. Bernardino Demesio helped the player get up and apologised. A hard shot by Teo Nesto from long distance, 18 minutes into the match, got Daniel Lartaun's attention. Through a fast twist with his body, he could stop the ball from going in on his right side. Cosme Ilixo received a nice pass in the box and took a hard shot in the 21st minute. Daniel Lartaun tensed up and prepared to dive, but the shot went over the goal with him having to interfere. When Quemquemtreu's Leonel Ibañez in the 25th minute got a chance for a shot 25th didn't hesitate and placed the ball to the right of the goalie. A beautiful save bye ֎ Atlanta ֎'s goalie prevented a goal. Santos Cugat scored 0-1 in the 26th match minute with a shot that went into the goal to the right of Fernan Maiorga, who was just a little too slow in reacting to the shot. An unexpectedly hard shot by Santos Cugat in the 30th minute of play forced ֎ Atlanta ֎'s goalkeeper Fernan Maiorga to throw himself to the left, to be able to save the ball. Gervasio Machado kicked well hit freekick during the 35th minute of the match. Cosme Ilixo got in the 36th a clear chance and fired away a hard shot against goal, but Daniel Lartaun handled the situation perfectly and made a save by the crossbar. 38 minutes into the match, Quemquemtreu's goal looked a bit too open when Cosme Ilixo came free, but Daniel Lartaun reached the ball before it rolled over the goal line. Daniel Lartaun showed his good apprehension of the play when he made a fantastic save on a shot from Cosme Ilixo, who was totally free with the ball in the 42nd minute. If Cosme Ilixo had kept his shot down it would have been a goal in the 44th minute. The ball went over the crossbar instead. When Quemquemtreu's Leonel Ibañez, in the 47th minute, received a pass right in front of the net, it looked like a certain goal, but his shot went outside. A wasted opportunity for Quemquemtreu. Even after changing tactics the home team jogged off the field with a 0-1 deficit. They would have to work harder if they wanted to turn things around in the second half.

Both teams looked relatively alert before the second half when the referee blew his whistle to tell Leonel Ibañez to make the kick off. If Santos Cugat had kept his shot down it would have been a goal in the 55th minute. The ball went over the crossbar and out instead. Santos Cugat's shot was meant for the net just under the crossbar, but Fernan Maiorga read the situation well and was quickly in position to make a wonderful save in the 57th minute of play. Quemquemtreu's Daniel Lartaun played magnificently when he managed to stop the ball from hitting the goal, after a sharp shot by Wilfredo Maureo in the 60th minute of play. An unexpectedly hard shot by Wilfredo Maureo in the 61st minute of play forced Quemquemtreu's goalkeeper Daniel Lartaun to throw himself to the left, to be able to save the ball. In the 62nd minute, Prudencio Laurin hit a crossing free kick to the open man running down the field. With a little luck, ֎ Atlanta ֎'s Fernan Maiorga got control of the ball when Santos Cugat tried to sneak it across the goal line. Daniel Lartaun showed brilliant goalkeeper skills when he caught the ball after a hard shot from Cosme Ilixo in the 78th minute of the match. Gervasio Machado hit a great freekick 79 minutes into the match. The supporters of ֎ Atlanta ֎ booed when Quemquemtreu was adjudged a doubtful freekick after 83 match minutes in a wonderful position. Paolo Erruki didn't get a good kick on the ball. Carolo Lesardo hit a great freekick 85 minutes into the match. The away crowd were delighted with the way their team had played and cheered loudly when the final whistle sounded. Quemquemtreu walked away with the win, even though the match was close until the end.
