Spectators: 7258 (Terracing: 5445, Seating: 1669, VIP seats: 144) The mood of the audience was pleasant when Simon Gorbea made the kick off which started today's match. After some fancy dribbling in the 8th minute, Aaron Abaurre managed to get in a good position for a shot. Escriña's supporters rose to their feet, but Aaron Abaurre was a bit off balance and shot the ball just wide of the left post. Ovidio Johans breathed a sigh of relief and went to take the goal kick. Mateo Izotz kicked well hit freekick during the 9th minute of the match. An unexpected shot in the 19th minute by Joaquin Tabby got the crowd on their feet, but to their dismay it went out on the left side. The Escriña fans' excitement grew in the 26th match minute when Escriña's German Cordara looked to have a clear shot with the ball near the goal. The shot wasn't hard, but the ball still rolled over the goal line to make it 0-1 before the goalkeeper had a chance to intervene. The supporters of Escriña booed when Balderramas 99 was adjudged a doubtful freekick after 34 match minutes in a wonderful position. Ambrosio Merexildo didn't get a good kick on the ball. Aureliano Cedro recieved an excellent pass in front of the goal in the 35th minute. Unfortunately, he received the ball on his off foot and could only manage a weak shot that went over the goal. After a defensive mix-up in Balderramas 99's zone, German Cordara stole the ball and had only the goalie to beat. Ovidio Johans came out of the goal and German Cordara tried to chip the ball over his head. To his dismay, the ball went over the crossbar and out of play. 38 minutes into the match, Balderramas 99's goal looked a bit too open when Aaron Abaurre came free, but Ovidio Johans reached the ball before it rolled over the goal line. The audience was convinced that Aaron Abaurre's extremely hard shot when he got free in front of the goal was going in, but Ovidio Johans was relentless in the 39th minute of the game. After 45 played minutes, Escriña's Aureliano Cedro shot from a long distance, and at first it looked like the ball was going into the goal, but the goalkeeper Ovidio Johans came through and got his fingers on the ball before it flew over the goal line. He then quickly gripped the ball tighter before the forwards in Escriña reached it.

When the second half was about to start, both teams quickly lined up and German Cordara made a kick off. After 58 played minutes Balderramas 99 got a freekick which was hit by Ambrosio Merexildo. 59 minutes into the match, Aureliano Cedro sent off a long shot that looked like it was going straight into the goal, but because Ovidio Johans threw himself in his full length he managed to grip the ball by the left post, and there was no goal for Aureliano Cedro this time. Aaron Abaurres short, quick shot in the 66thth minute got Ovidio Johans to make great effort and bar the ball away from getting in. When Simon Gorbea came up free with the goalie in the 75th minute, the Balderramas 99 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 Simon Gorbea couldn't finish the play. If German Cordara had kept his shot down it would have been a goal in the 76th minute. The ball went over the crossbar and out instead. German Criston's late challenge caught a Balderramas 99's player on the shin and left him crawling around in pain. The referee blew his whistle and produced the yellow card. German Criston helped the player get up and apologised. Aaron Abaurre sent away a hard shot on goal in the 85th minute, but the ball went just over the crossbar and out. A very good chance. Aaron Abaurre scored 0-4 in the 88th match minute with a shot that went into the goal to the right of Ovidio Johans, who was just a little too slow in reacting to the shot. 101 minutes into the game, German Cordara lined in a short shot 0-5 behind a frustrated Ovidio Johans. The Escriña players were relieved to hear the final whistle blow to end the match. The away crowd was happy to see their team win after a very tight game.
