Spectators: 7720 (Terracing: 5791, Seating: 1775, VIP seats: 154) The field was rather wet after several days of rain when Jonas Hug took the kick off in the first half of the match. When the match had gone on for 8 minutes, Luis Mendez put it in 1-0 from a short distance just to the right of Teo Bladi. Teo Bladi showed his good apprehension of the play when he made a fantastic save on a shot from Luis Mendez, who was totally free with the ball in the 18th minute. An unexpectedly hard shot by Jonas Hug in the 22nd minute of play forced Bada Bing Club's goalkeeper Cleto Lastras to throw himself to the left, to be able to save the ball. Cleto Lastras stood for a superb save when he managed to get hold of Higinio Lauro's shot from short distance in the 24th minute. Teo Bladi showed brilliant goalkeeper skills when he caught the ball after a hard shot from Luis Mendez in the 34th minute of the match. If Joel Ayala had kept his shot down it would have been a goal in the 40th minute. The ball went over the crossbar and out instead. In the 42nd minute, Primitivo Alabern hit a crossing free kick to the open man running down the field. When Higinio Lauro came up free with the goalie in the 43rd minute, the Bolsodios 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 Higinio Lauro couldn't finish the play. Higinio Lauro took the ball and in the 45 minute, shot a rapid shot to the right of a surprised Cleto Lastras. Cleto Lastras dived to the right, and did manage to get a hand on the shot, but it still went into the right corner making it 1-1.

The wind increased when Felip Cuervas made the kick off in the second half. Luis Mendez might have been able to make a better finish in the 51st minute when he tried to place a hard shot over Teo Bladi. Instead the ball went over the crossbar and out. Luis Mendez ran back to his position shaking his head. Bolsodios's Teo Bladi played magnificently when he managed to stop the ball from hitting the goal, after a sharp shot by Unai Antunez in the 57th minute of play. 60 minutes into the match, Bada Bing Club's goal looked a bit too open when Epifanio Cai came free, but Cleto Lastras reached the ball before it rolled over the goal line. In the 77th minute Felip Cuervas shot on, it seemed, an open goal, but Teo Bladi saw the ball coming and threw himself on it before it passed the goal line. Teo Bladi took care of the ball after a well-directed shot from Juan-Francisco Encina, even though the ball almost passed him on his left side. Teo Bladi made a wonderful reflex save on a shot from Luis Mendez in the 82nd minute of play. Jonas Hug received a nice pass, split the defenders, and ran untouched towards the goal. Cleto Lastras came out and tried to block the shot, but Jonas Hug slotted it home off the left post making it 2-3 in the 83rd minute. Luis Mendez struck a weak shot in the 87th minute. Teo Bladi didn't even have to move as the ball rolled over the line well wide of the goal. A wasted opportunity for Bada Bing Club. In the 89thth minute of the game Juan-Francisco Encina who was perfectly placed tried to make a shot on goal, but Bolsodios's Teo Bladi was lucky and managed to grab hold of the ball. In the 91st minute, Jonas Hug 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. 95 minutes into the match, Bolsodios's goal looked a bit too open when Felip Cuervas came free, but Teo Bladi reached the ball before it rolled over the goal line. The Bolsodios supporters could be heard counting down the last seconds of the match. They errupted in celebration when the whistle blew, knowing Bolsodios would go home with victory in their luggage after a match that easily could have ended differently.
