Spectators: 5000 (Terracing: 4000, Seating: 1000, VIP seats: 0) Carabalis FC's Perico Arria 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. Nazario Tofino received a nice pass in the box and took a hard shot in the 5th minute. Gomez Ribota tensed up and prepared to dive, but the shot went over the goal with him having to interfere. Luar Altamirano made a wonderful reflex save on a shot from Urritz Ruesga in the 10th minute of play. After 15 minutes of play, Carabalis FC's Nazario Tofino made it 1-0 when he simply outclassed the defender marking him and hit a curling shot into the right side of the net. Gomez Ribota was left in no man's land by his defense there! Nazario Tofino might have been able to make a better finish in the 21st minute when he tried to place a hard shot over Gomez Ribota. Instead the ball went over the crossbar and out. Nazario Tofino ran back to his position shaking his head. In the 24th minute, Horacio Pereda hit a crossing free kick to the open man running down the field. Generosb Samano was probably a little too eager to shoot when he, in the 25th played minute, shot the ball from way out. The shot was hard, but the ball flew wide of the goal. Gomez Ribota made a fantastic save in the 32nd minute, when Nazario Tofino sent off a good shot on target. Perico Arria had several of the C A I C's defenders around him in the penalty area when he, after 37 minutes of play, received a pass and succeeded in some way to shoot a shot which went straight ahead into goal. This resulted in a 2-0 score and a disappointed Gomez Ribota as he didn't even see the shot coming. If Perico Arria had kept his shot down it would have been a goal in the 44th minute. The ball went over the crossbar and out instead. No-one was surprised that the home team were leading 2-0 at half-time.

When the second half was about to start, both teams quickly lined up and Tiago Leyva made a kick off. Urritz Ruesga fired away a screaming shot towards the goal in the 51st minute, but the shot went just over the crossbar without Luar Altamirano having to interfere. 59 minutes into the match, Perico Arria notched a goal, 3-0, to the right of C A I C's Gomez Ribota. Gomez Ribota was clearly disgusted with the effort of the defense and let the defenders know about it. In the 67th minute, Perico Arria made a precise shot to the right of Gomez Ribota. C A I C's defense was at fault, and the scoreboard reflected the new score, 4-0. When the match had gone on for 73 minutes, Perico Arria put it in 5-0 from a short distance just to the right of Gomez Ribota. C A I C's Iker Montaña was first on the ball when the corner was shot and he dangerously headed the ball towards goal, but Luar Altamirano in the goal jumped up to prevent it from getting in. Gomez Ribota showed brilliant goalkeeper skills when he caught the ball after a hard shot from Nazario Tofino in the 82nd minute of the match. In the 85th minute Perico Arria shot on, it seemed, an open goal, but Gomez Ribota saw the ball coming and threw himself on it before it passed the goal line. Carabalis FC's Perico Arria got a good chance for a goal in the 90th minute, but he totally mistimed the shot and it went over the crossbar. C A I C's Gomez Ribota played magnificently when he managed to stop the ball from hitting the goal, after a sharp shot by Perico Arria in the 95th minute of play. Carabalis FC's fans were exulted and cheered after their team won in a match that could easily have gone the other way.
