Fausto Eneto was out of position in the 16 minute of play, and Bernardino Domenec capitalized on the mistake with a soft shot into the goal. Bernardino Domenec really showed his touch with that goal: 1-0.

After 88 minutes of play, Piratas de la Redonda's Bernardino Domenec made it 3-1 when he simply outclassed the defender marking him and hit a curling shot into the right side of the net.

Cipriano Afonso was clearly disgusted with the effort of the defense and let the defenders know about it.
