Spectators: 5000 (Terracing: 4000, Seating: 1000, VIP seats: 0) It was fairly windy and cold on the field when Ruperto Bras kicked off to start the match.

Prudencio Medardo really showed his touch with that goal: 1-6. When Raul Chepe came up free with the goalie in the 76th minute, the Berduc 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 Raul Chepe couldn't finish the play. Ruperto Bastian fired away a screaming shot towards the goal in the 77th minute, but the shot went just over the crossbar without Adrian Txordon having to interfere.
