La Huguera
Spectators: 7259 (Terracing: 5446, Seating: 1669, VIP seats: 144) Deportivo Leña y Leña's Jonatan Matro started the match with a crisp pass. The crowd had been anticipating this game for weeks and the excitement in the stadium was easily visible. Godfredo Pudes's late challenge caught a El Gran Huguito 2's player on the shin and left him crawling around in pain. The referee blew his whistle and produced the yellow card. Godfredo Pudes helped the player get up and apologised. Godfredo Pudes hit a great freekick 13 minutes into the match. 19 minutes into the match, Godfredo Pudes had an open shot that he just couldn't miss and scored to the right of Astor Jerano. El Gran Huguito 2's manager could be seen yelling to the referee that Godfredo Pudes was offside, but the referee ignored the protest. 0-1. In the 27th minute the ball was on its way in behind Deportivo Leña y Leña's goalkeeper Maximino Salomon, but with the help of a sacrificing defense, he could catch the ball at the crossbar. Florentino Urki sent away a hard shot on goal in the 28th minute, but the ball went just over the crossbar and out. A very good chance. Elpidio Distiratsu charged in rather forcefully in the 31st minute of the match, and managed to knock his opponent down. The referee showed Elpidio Distiratsu the yellow card, and asked the players to shake hands before continuing play. In the 31st match minute, Deportivo Leña y Leña was awarded a freekick, the ball was picked up by Elpidio Distiratsu to maneuver through the defense. Maximino Salomon acted impressively in front of the goal and made a superb save when he, in the 33rd minute, took the ball on the long shot from Eloy Tercero. After some fancy dribbling in the 39th minute, Florentino Urki managed to get in a good position for a shot. El Gran Huguito 2's supporters rose to their feet, but Florentino Urki was a bit off balance and shot the ball just wide of the left post. Maximino Salomon breathed a sigh of relief and went to take the goal kick. After a rather tough play, El Gran Huguito 2's Reynaldo Oto got a free kick in the 42nd minute. 46 minutes into the match, Deportivo Leña y Leña's goal looked a bit too open when Ruben Baraquiel came free, but Maximino Salomon reached the ball before it rolled over the goal line. Disappointed in the 0-1 score, the home team went to the dressing room to adjust tactics for the second half.

Both teams looked relatively alert before the second half when the referee blew his whistle to tell Florentino Urki to make the kick off. If Florentino Urki had kept his shot down it would have been a goal in the 51st minute. The ball went over the crossbar and out instead. Evaristo Lucila fired away a screaming shot towards the goal in the 53rd minute, but the shot went just over the crossbar without Maximino Salomon having to interfere. Astor Jerano was in the perfect position, and the defense had done a good job marking him, but Jonatan Matro showcased his skills and made a perfect shot to score 0-2 in the 55 minute of play. Evaristo Lucila struck a weak shot in the 68th minute. Maximino Salomon didn't even have to move as the ball rolled over the line well wide of the goal. A wasted opportunity for El Gran Huguito 2. After some fancy dribbling in the 71st minute, Florentino Urki managed to get in a good position for a shot. El Gran Huguito 2's supporters rose to their feet, but Florentino Urki was a bit off balance and shot the ball just wide of the left post. Maximino Salomon breathed a sigh of relief and went to take the goal kick. When Marciano Oliverios fell near the penalty area in the 72nd minute he thought he would be awarded a free kick. The referee ignored Deportivo Leña y Leña's protests and gave Marciano Oliverios a yellow card for diving instead. After 72 played minutes Deportivo Leña y Leña got a freekick which was hit by Marciano Oliverios. When the match had gone on for 77 minutes, Florentino Urki put it in 2-2 from a short distance just to the right of Maximino Salomon. The attack was good, but when Florentino Urki in the 84th minute was about to shoot he didn't kick quite good enough and the ball went high over goal. A hard, long distance shot from Reynaldo Oto flew over the goal. If Florentino Urki had kept his shot down it would have been a goal in the 92nd minute. The ball went over the crossbar and out instead. The audience was convinced that Florentino Urki's extremely hard shot when he got free in front of the goal was going in, but Maximino Salomon was relentless in the 95th minute of the game. Despite being the better team, El Gran Huguito 2 failed to find the winning goal and were forced to settle for a single point.
