Spectators: 7245 (Terracing: 5457, Seating: 1673, VIP seats: 115) Bragadense AFC's Filomeno Goyo 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. Israel Hechter took a chance and fired a shot far from the goal in the 4th minute, but it turned out to be a dangerous situation for Jeremias Pueblo. Bragadense AFC's goalkeeper really had to stretch himself to stop the ball from crossing the goal line. When Ciriaco Fresco came up free with the goalie in the 11th minute, the Pincén 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 Ciriaco Fresco couldn't finish the play. Rafael Igon sent away a hard shot on goal in the 13th minute, but the ball went just over the crossbar and out. A very good chance. In the 18th minute Ciriaco Fresco shot on, it seemed, an open goal, but Jeremias Pueblo saw the ball coming and threw himself on it before it passed the goal line. A collision led to Bragadense AFC getting a freekick after 20 minutes play. Cristian Arixo hit a great ball. Israel Hechter, 20 minutes into the match, dribbled the ball up the side of the field and decided to take a long shot at the goal. Unfortunately, the ball was poorly hit and landed closer to the corner than to the goal. Ciriaco Fresco received a nice pass in the box and took a hard shot in the 22nd minute. Jeremias Pueblo tensed up and prepared to dive, but the shot went over the goal with him having to interfere. After 25 minutes of play, Pincén's Rafael Igon made it 0-1 when he simply outclassed the defender marking him and hit a curling shot into the right side of the net. Jeremias Pueblo was left in no man's land by his defense there! After having played for 30 minutes, Laureano Cordarin managed to get in a good position for a shot on goal. Bragadense AFC's supporters crossed their fingers, but Laureano Cordarin was, after a quick turn that froze the defenders, out of balance and shot the ball just to the right of the goal. Jeremias Pueblo showed his good apprehension of the play when he made a fantastic save on a shot from Rafael Igon, who was totally free with the ball in the 33rd minute. In the 36th minute Ciriaco Fresco shot on, it seemed, an open goal, but Jeremias Pueblo saw the ball coming and threw himself on it before it passed the goal line. Jeremias Pueblo came out of the goal in the 41st minute to try and stop a shot by Pincén's Rafael Igon. But to his dismay, Rafael Igon quickly shot the ball in between his legs and into the goal making it 0-2. After the first half Pincén were leading 0-2. They had played with great self confidence throughout the first half and fully deserved their lead.

The players of the away team seemed most concentrated when Rafael Igon stepped up to make the kick off in the second half. Tomás Breogan was in a good position and managed to take a shot, but he missed just to the outside of the post. Ciriaco Fresco sent away a hard shot on goal in the 56th minute, but the ball went just over the crossbar and out. A very good chance. Rafael Igon might have been able to make a better finish in the 61st minute when he tried to place a hard shot over Jeremias Pueblo. Instead the ball went over the crossbar and out. Rafael Igon ran back to his position shaking his head. Filomeno Goyo sent away a hard shot on goal in the 66th minute, but the ball went just over the crossbar and out. A very good chance. If Rafael Igon had kept his shot down it would have been a goal in the 69th minute. The ball went over the crossbar and out instead. Rafael Igon fired away a screaming shot towards the goal in the 73rd minute, but the shot went just over the crossbar without Jeremias Pueblo having to interfere. After 79 played minutes Bragadense AFC got a freekick which was hit by Cristian Arixo. 80 minutes into the match, Pincén's Israel Hechter broke free and took a long shot that unfortunately flew wide. A fine initiative that could have resulted in a goal. Laureano Cordarin recieved an excellent pass in front of the goal in the 84th minute. Unfortunately, he received the ball on his off foot and could only manage a weak shot that went over the goal. The supporters of Bragadense AFC booed when Pincén was adjudged a doubtful freekick after 88 match minutes in a wonderful position. Tomás Breogan didn't get a good kick on the ball. With his leg Jeremias Pueblo managed to avoid a goal in the 92ndth minute, when Pincén's Ciriaco Fresco fired away a shot with a lot of spin towards his right hand side. Rafael Igon received a nice pass, split the defenders, and ran untouched towards the goal. Jeremias Pueblo came out and tried to block the shot, but Rafael Igon slotted it home off the left post making it 0-3 in the 96th minute. The Bragadense AFC fans had already started to leave before the final whistle blew. Pincén were clearly better and deserved to take the win.
