Spectators: 7174 (Terracing: 5382, Seating: 1650, VIP seats: 142) The field was rather wet after several days of rain when Carmelo Bilbo took the kick off in the first half of the match. After a rather tough play, Caminadores F.C.'s Narciso Jakes got a free kick in the 3rd minute. After 5 minutes Caminadores F.C.'s defender was forced to head the ball over the line for a corner. It was Amadeo Iruinea who took care of the corner kick. The goalkeeper smacked the ball away after a great corner, but Leopoldo Silviano advanced and headed the ball into goal, 0-1 in the 6th minute. Damian Ixidor fired away a screaming shot towards the goal in the 9th minute, but the shot went just over the crossbar without Florentino Abella having to interfere. Ruperto Gabon's shot straight on target was not completely harmless. The ball had pretty good speed, but Evelio Telmo firmly grabbed it by the left post. Damian Ixidor recieved an excellent pass in front of the goal in the 19th 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 Caminadores F.C.'s zone, Damian Ixidor stole the ball and had only the goalie to beat. Florentino Abella came out of the goal and Damian Ixidor tried to chip the ball over his head. To his dismay, the ball went over the crossbar and out of play. After 26 minutes of play, ANTONIO FC's Damian Ixidor made it 0-2 when he simply outclassed the defender marking him and hit a curling shot into the right side of the net. Florentino Abella was left in no man's land by his defense there! With a couple of smart ball manuevers Amadeo Iruinea in the 39th managed to get into a good position. With a left leg Florentino Abella saved Caminadores F.C. from getting behind. 41 minutes into the match, Caminadores F.C.'s goal looked a bit too open when Amadeo Iruinea came free, but Florentino Abella reached the ball before it rolled over the goal line. When Ildefonso Oto fell near the penalty area in the 42nd minute he thought he would be awarded a free kick. The referee ignored ANTONIO FC's protests and gave Ildefonso Oto a yellow card for diving instead. After 43 played minutes, Caminadores F.C.'s Prudencio Cordareo shot from a long distance, and at first it looked like the ball was going into the goal, but the goalkeeper Evelio Telmo 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 Caminadores F.C. reached it. When ANTONIO FC's Amadeo Iruinea in the 44th minute got a chance for a shot 44th didn't hesitate and placed the ball to the right of the goalie. A beautiful save bye Caminadores F.C.'s goalie prevented a goal. Damian Ixidor fired away a screaming shot towards the goal in the 46th minute, but the shot went just over the crossbar without Florentino Abella having to interfere. Even after changing tactics the home team jogged off the field with a 0-3 deficit. They would have to work harder if they wanted to turn things around in the second half.

Amadeo Iruinea recieved an excellent pass in front of the goal in the 54th minute. Unfortunately, he received the ball on his off foot and could only manage a weak shot that went over the goal. In the 56th minute, Amadeo Iruinea got an opportunity to score, but he didn't get a solid hit on the ball and ended up kicking it wide of the goal. If Damian Ixidor had kept his shot down it would have been a goal in the 58th minute. The ball went over the crossbar and out instead. Amadeo Iruinea could have scored with his fast shot on goal in the 61st minute of the match, but Florentino Abella made a huge save. Florentino Abella took care of the ball after a well-directed shot from Ildefonso Oto, even though the ball almost passed him on his left side. Higinio Gabirel took a chance and fired a shot far from the goal in the 66th minute, but it turned out to be a dangerous situation for Florentino Abella. Caminadores F.C.'s goalkeeper really had to stretch himself to stop the ball from crossing the goal line. 68 minutes into the match, Caminadores F.C.'s goalkeeper Florentino Abella had to clear away a ball on his right side after a cunning shot by Ildefonso Oto. In the 70th minute Amadeo Iruinea shot on, it seemed, an open goal, but Florentino Abella saw the ball coming and threw himself on it before it passed the goal line. 75 minutes into the game, Jairo Bertol was given a yellow card after he appeared to trip an opposing player. Caminadores F.C.'s manager was livid on the sidelines, but the referee was unmoved and gave ANTONIO FC the free kick. Jairo Bertol hit a great freekick 75 minutes into the match. Evelio Telmo showed brilliant goalkeeper skills when he caught the ball after a hard shot from Carmelo Bilbo in the 81st minute of the match. 83 minutes into the match, ANTONIO FC's goal looked a bit too open when Ruperto Gabon came free, but Evelio Telmo reached the ball before it rolled over the goal line.

ANTONIO FC's supporters crossed their fingers, but Damian Ixidor was, after a quick turn that froze the defenders, out of balance and shot the ball just to the right of the goal. When Amadeo Iruinea came up free with the goalie in the 90th minute, the ANTONIO FC 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 Amadeo Iruinea couldn't finish the play. ANTONIO FC made a substitution. Ernesto Bibiano replaced Leopoldo Silviano. In the 93rd minute, Epifanio Isias fired away a shot on goal. He put a little to much spin on the ball and sent it just wide of the right post. Amadeo Iruinea sent away a hard shot on goal in the 95th minute, but the ball went just over the crossbar and out. A very good chance. ANTONIO FC's players went to the stands to thank the travelling support. The fan's backing had helped spurr the team on to a fine performance that won them the match.
