Spectators: 5000 (Terracing: 4000, Seating: 1000, VIP seats: 0) It was fairly windy and cold on the field when Gavino Jeraldo kicked off to start the match. After a rather tough play, BH RAFAELA's Benê Arruda got a free kick in the 3rd minute. In the 4th minute, a hard, long distance shot from Luciano Orlin hit the top of the crossbar and flew over the goal. Nereo Etxahun who was well placed in front of the goal fired away a dangerous shot that in the 5thth minute tested the skills of Mario Paz when he managed to save the team from getting behind. Juan Urko might have been able to make a better finish in the 14th minute when he tried to place a hard shot over Mario Paz. Instead the ball went over the crossbar and out. Juan Urko ran back to his position shaking his head. Florencio Elodio kicked well hit freekick during the 15th minute of the match. After a defensive mix-up in C.A. Euler's zone, Rafael Federigo stole the ball and had only the goalie to beat. Mario Paz came out of the goal and Rafael Federigo tried to chip the ball over his head.

With his leg Mario Paz managed to avoid a goal in the 41stth minute, when BH RAFAELA's Nereo Etxahun fired away a shot with a lot of spin towards his right hand side. If Rafael Federigo had kept his shot down it would have been a goal in the 42nd minute. The ball went over the crossbar and out instead. Mariano Michael took care of the ball after a well-directed shot from Gavino Jeraldo, even though the ball almost passed him on his left side. 45 minutes into the match, Ricardo Isaio had an open shot that he just couldn't miss and scored to the right of Mariano Michael.

Euler's defender lost control of the ball, allowing it to roll out over the line. Nemesio Iratxo took the corner. 55 minutes into the match, C.A. Euler's goal looked a bit too open when Falcão Baptista came free, but Mario Paz reached the ball before it rolled over the goal line.

The audience was convinced that Nereo Etxahun's extremely hard shot when he got free in front of the goal was going in, but Mario Paz was relentless in the 62nd minute of the game.
