Spectators: 7380 (Terracing: 5500, Seating: 1780, VIP seats: 100) The sun was shining, the grass was green and the audience cheered when Narciso Tano got the match started through his kick off. The supporters of ★ᴇꜱᴛᴜᴅɪᴀɴᴛᴇꜱ ᴅᴇ ʟᴀ ᴘʟᴀᴛᴀ★ booed when Club El Progreso was adjudged a doubtful freekick after 3 match minutes in a wonderful position. Pascual Gomesano didn't get a good kick on the ball. After 9 played minutes, Club El Progreso's Pascual Gomesano shot from a long distance, and at first it looked like the ball was going into the goal, but the goalkeeper Gavino Orlan 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 Club El Progreso reached it. ★ᴇꜱᴛᴜᴅɪᴀɴᴛᴇꜱ ᴅᴇ ʟᴀ ᴘʟᴀᴛᴀ★'s Gavino Orlan played magnificently when he managed to stop the ball from hitting the goal, after a sharp shot by Ignacio Ebere in the 20th minute of play. In the 20th match minute, Club El Progreso was awarded a freekick, the ball was picked up by Pascual Gomesano to maneuver through the defense. Club El Progreso's Juan Vergaray proved his good apprehension of play when he, in the 22nd minute of the match, managed to save Club El Progreso from getting a goal against them. Pascual Gomesano scored 0-1 in the 23rd match minute with a shot that went into the goal to the right of Gavino Orlan, who was just a little too slow in reacting to the shot. An unexpectedly hard shot by Bruno Ekialde in the 41st minute of play forced Club El Progreso's goalkeeper Juan Vergaray to throw himself to the left, to be able to save the ball. After having played for 44 minutes, Bruno Ekialde managed to get in a good position for a shot on goal. ★ᴇꜱᴛᴜᴅɪᴀɴᴛᴇꜱ ᴅᴇ ʟᴀ ᴘʟᴀᴛᴀ★'s supporters crossed their fingers, but Bruno Ekialde was, after a quick turn that froze the defenders, out of balance and shot the ball just to the right of the goal. After having played for 45 minutes, Narciso Tano managed to get in a good position for a shot on goal. ★ᴇꜱᴛᴜᴅɪᴀɴᴛᴇꜱ ᴅᴇ ʟᴀ ᴘʟᴀᴛᴀ★'s supporters crossed their fingers, but Narciso Tano was, after a quick turn that froze the defenders, out of balance and shot the ball just to the right of the goal. Disappointed in the 0-1 score, the home team went to the dressing room to adjust tactics for the second half.

Isaac Vistruario fired away a screaming shot towards the goal in the 52nd minute, but the shot went just over the crossbar without Juan Vergaray having to interfere. Igor Birjaio's shot straight on target was not completely harmless. The ball had pretty good speed, but Gavino Orlan firmly grabbed it by the left post. 60 minutes into the match, ★ᴇꜱᴛᴜᴅɪᴀɴᴛᴇꜱ ᴅᴇ ʟᴀ ᴘʟᴀᴛᴀ★'s goalkeeper Gavino Orlan had to clear away a ball on his right side after a cunning shot by Ignacio Ebere. In the 62nd minute, Florencio Jaen hit a crossing free kick to the open man running down the field. 69 minutes into the match, Bruno Ekialde notched a goal, 1-2, to the right of Club El Progreso's Juan Vergaray. Juan Vergaray was clearly disgusted with the effort of the defense and let the defenders know about it. ★ᴇꜱᴛᴜᴅɪᴀɴᴛᴇꜱ ᴅᴇ ʟᴀ ᴘʟᴀᴛᴀ★'s Bruno Ekialde got a good chance for a goal in the 80th minute, but he totally mistimed the shot and it went over the crossbar. After having played for 81 minutes, Narciso Tano managed to get in a good position for a shot on goal. ★ᴇꜱᴛᴜᴅɪᴀɴᴛᴇꜱ ᴅᴇ ʟᴀ ᴘʟᴀᴛᴀ★'s supporters crossed their fingers, but Narciso Tano was, after a quick turn that froze the defenders, out of balance and shot the ball just to the right of the goal. The supporters of ★ᴇꜱᴛᴜᴅɪᴀɴᴛᴇꜱ ᴅᴇ ʟᴀ ᴘʟᴀᴛᴀ★ booed when Club El Progreso was adjudged a doubtful freekick after 85 match minutes in a wonderful position. Baldomero Salomon didn't get a good kick on the ball. Saverio Ladio struck a weak shot in the 86th minute. Juan Vergaray didn't even have to move as the ball rolled over the line well wide of the goal. A wasted opportunity for ★ᴇꜱᴛᴜᴅɪᴀɴᴛᴇꜱ ᴅᴇ ʟᴀ ᴘʟᴀᴛᴀ★. Gavino Orlan showed his good apprehension of the play when he made a fantastic save on a shot from Pascual Gomesano, who was totally free with the ball in the 88th minute. In the 93rd minute Ignacio Ebere shot on, it seemed, an open goal, but Gavino Orlan saw the ball coming and threw himself on it before it passed the goal line. After 93 played minutes Ignacio Ebere could catch the ball where he stood relatively free a bit outside the goal and without hesitation he completed 1-3 into the left cross. When the match was over Club El Progreso could go home with a victory in their luggage, having controlled the game far better than ★ᴇꜱᴛᴜᴅɪᴀɴᴛᴇꜱ ᴅᴇ ʟᴀ ᴘʟᴀᴛᴀ★ throughout the match.
