Spectators: 6769 (Terracing: 5000, Seating: 1769, VIP seats: 0) The mood of the audience was pleasant when Frederico Angostina made the kick off which started today's match. Mendiko Cerejido took care of the ball after a well-directed shot from Frederico Angostina, even though the ball almost passed him on his left side. Bazil Sustaeta sent away a hard shot on goal in the 5th minute, but the ball went just over the crossbar and out. A very good chance. Zuhaitz Castella came out of the goal in the 7th minute to try and stop a shot by Otazu's Bazil Sustaeta. But to his dismay, Bazil Sustaeta quickly shot the ball in between his legs and into the goal making it 1-0. Romeo Gaviria might have been able to make a better finish in the 13th minute when he tried to place a hard shot over Zuhaitz Castella. Instead the ball went over the crossbar and out. Romeo Gaviria ran back to his position shaking his head. Balendin Cetina received a nice pass in the box and took a hard shot in the 19th minute. Mendiko Cerejido tensed up and prepared to dive, but the shot went over the goal with him having to interfere. In the 21st minute Frederico Angostina shot on, it seemed, an open goal, but Mendiko Cerejido saw the ball coming and threw himself on it before it passed the goal line. With a couple of smart ball manuevers Frederico Angostina in the 23rd managed to get into a good position. With a left leg Mendiko Cerejido saved Otazu from getting behind. Mendiko Cerejido made a wonderful reflex save on a shot from Balendin Cetina in the 29th minute of play. Balendin Cetina received a nice pass in the box and took a hard shot in the 33rd minute. Mendiko Cerejido tensed up and prepared to dive, but the shot went over the goal with him having to interfere. An unexpectedly hard shot by Frederico Angostina in the 35th minute of play forced Otazu's goalkeeper Mendiko Cerejido to throw himself to the left, to be able to save the ball. Otazu's Mendiko Cerejido played magnificently when he managed to stop the ball from hitting the goal, after a sharp shot by Balendin Cetina in the 36th minute of play. After some fancy dribbling in the 38th minute, Bazil Sustaeta managed to get in a good position for a shot. Otazu's supporters rose to their feet, but Bazil Sustaeta was a bit off balance and shot the ball just wide of the left post. Zuhaitz Castella breathed a sigh of relief and went to take the goal kick. Mendiko Cerejido came out of the goal in the 40th minute to try and stop a shot by Curuzuaba's Balendin Cetina. But to his dismay, Balendin Cetina quickly shot the ball in between his legs and into the goal making it 1-1. 44 minutes into the game, Natanael Selgas was given a yellow card after he appeared to trip an opposing player. Curuzuaba's manager was livid on the sidelines, but the referee was unmoved and gave Otazu the free kick. Natanael Selgas kicked well hit freekick during the 44th minute of the match. 47 minutes had been played when some careless play by Curuzuaba's defense caused the ball to cross the line for a corner. Celestino Luyando was slow to take the kick. During this time Otazu's players had a chance to rest.

When the second half was about to start, both teams quickly lined up and Bazil Sustaeta made a kick off. After having played for 52 minutes, Romeo Gaviria managed to get in a good position for a shot on goal. Otazu's supporters crossed their fingers, but Romeo Gaviria was, after a quick turn that froze the defenders, out of balance and shot the ball just to the right of the goal. After a defensive mix-up in Curuzuaba's zone, Bazil Sustaeta stole the ball and had only the goalie to beat. Zuhaitz Castella came out of the goal and Bazil Sustaeta tried to chip the ball over his head. To his dismay, the ball went over the crossbar and out of play. Romeo Gaviria struck a weak shot in the 64th minute. Zuhaitz Castella didn't even have to move as the ball rolled over the line well wide of the goal. A wasted opportunity for Otazu. After a rather tough play, Curuzuaba's Natanael Selgas got a free kick in the 65th minute. Balendin Cetina could have scored with his fast shot on goal in the 68th minute of the match, but Mendiko Cerejido made a huge save. Otazu's Mendiko Cerejido proved his good apprehension of play when he, in the 70th minute of the match, managed to save Otazu from getting a goal against them. A well-hit corner resulted in Xofre Posse heading the ball towards the goal, but to his dismay he misdirected it and missed the goal completely. Leandro Urtarte got his second yellow card in the match during the 78th minute which meant that he had to leave the ground. The referee blew the whistle for a penalty in the 78th minute of the game. One of Otazu:s players had nearly got his shirt torn off by an opponent while getting free in front of Curuzuaba:s goal. The goalkeeper, Mendiko Cerejido, was totally fooled by Curuzuaba's Lluciano Armiñan, who 81 minutes into the game made a penalty shot that went in on the goalkeeper's left side. In the 92nd minute, Frederico Angostina 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. The referee was alert and spotted a serious foul by Bazil Sustaeta during the 93rd minute. The player immediately received a yellow card. After 93 played minutes Otazu got a freekick which was hit by Bazil Sustaeta. Curuzuaba's Lluciano Armiñan couldn't find anyone to pass the ball to, so he shot a long shot towards the goal in the 94th minute. The shot went wide which resulted in a goal kick for Otazu. The Otazu fans had already started to leave before the final whistle blew. Curuzuaba were clearly better and deserved to take the win.
