Spectators: 160 (Terracing: 120, Seating: 37, VIP seats: 3) The sun was shining, the grass was green and the audience cheered when Jonas Brion got the match started through his kick off. The supporters of Simbo FC booed when Al-Femur FC was adjudged a doubtful freekick after 2 match minutes in a wonderful position. Robustiano Sanduru didn't get a good kick on the ball. Simbo FC's Segundo Neron couldn't find anyone to pass the ball to, so he shot a long shot towards the goal in the 3rd minute. The shot went wide which resulted in a goal kick for Al-Femur FC. Fabricio Bartoli hit a great freekick 4 minutes into the match. Raul Hever took care of the ball after a well-directed shot from Jonas Brion, even though the ball almost passed him on his left side. Al-Femur FC's Raul Hever played magnificently when he managed to stop the ball from hitting the goal, after a sharp shot by Elias Palos in the 19th minute of play. An unexpectedly hard shot by Ricardo Machado in the 20th minute of play forced Simbo FC's goalkeeper Octavio Lauaxeta to throw himself to the left, to be able to save the ball. Rogelio Gombal sent away a hard shot on goal in the 25th minute, but the ball went just over the crossbar and out. A very good chance. In the 27th minute Benedicto Vellito shot on, it seemed, an open goal, but Octavio Lauaxeta saw the ball coming and threw himself on it before it passed the goal line. The supporters of Simbo FC booed when Al-Femur FC was adjudged a doubtful freekick after 29 match minutes in a wonderful position. Fabricio Bartoli didn't get a good kick on the ball. Raul Hever made a wonderful reflex save on a shot from Elias Palos in the 33rd minute of play. 35 minutes into the match, Simbo FC's goal looked a bit too open when Benedicto Vellito came free, but Octavio Lauaxeta reached the ball before it rolled over the goal line. When Rogelio Gombal came up free with the goalie in the 36th minute, the Simbo 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 Rogelio Gombal couldn't finish the play. When Placido Xabel fell near the penalty area in the 37th minute he thought he would be awarded a free kick. The referee ignored Al-Femur FC's protests and gave Placido Xabel a yellow card for diving instead. Placido Xabel hit a great freekick 37 minutes into the match. If Jonas Brion had kept his shot down it would have been a goal in the 38th minute. The ball went over the crossbar and out instead.

Both teams looked relatively alert before the second half when the referee blew his whistle to tell Benedicto Vellito to make the kick off. After 52 minutes, Robustiano Sanduru mouthed his way into the referee's book. The tension between the Al-Femur FC and the Simbo FC players grew even worse after the yellow card. After 52 played minutes Al-Femur FC got a freekick which was hit by Robustiano Sanduru. Raul Hever was a little too slow when Jonas Brion got a fine hit on the ball which went right into the goal in the 54th minute. The score was now 0-2. Jonas Brion took the ball and in the 57 minute, shot a rapid shot to the right of a surprised Raul Hever. Raul Hever dived to the right, and did manage to get a hand on the shot, but it still went into the right corner making it 0-3. The nice shot from Elias Palos in the 62ndth minute just in front of the goal should have ended in point on the board, but Raul Hever had a great feel for the game and superbly saved the ball from getting in by the left post. Jonas Brion received a nice pass in the box and took a hard shot in the 65th minute. Raul Hever tensed up and prepared to dive, but the shot went over the goal with him having to interfere. When the match clock showed 67 minutes, the score became 0-4 when Jonas Brion sped through Al-Femur FC's defense and sent away a curving shot that went into the net to the right of Raul Hever. Elias Palos in the 70thth minute had a little luck and got a chance for a shot in front of the goal. Without hesitation aimed to the right of Raul Hever, who managed to lunge to the right direction and made a save. Raul Hever made a fantastic save in the 76th minute, when Marcial Belasko sent off a good shot on target. The supporters of Al-Femur FC booed when Simbo FC was adjudged a doubtful freekick after 81 match minutes in a wonderful position. Paolo Rumaldo didn't get a good kick on the ball. After 82 played minutes, Al-Femur FC's Placido Xabel shot from a long distance, and at first it looked like the ball was going into the goal, but the goalkeeper Octavio Lauaxeta 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 Al-Femur FC reached it. 83 minutes into the match, Jonas Brion had an open shot that he just couldn't miss and scored to the right of Raul Hever. Al-Femur FC's manager could be seen yelling to the referee that Jonas Brion was offside, but the referee ignored the protest. 0-5. Al-Femur FC's Raul Hever proved his good apprehension of play when he, in the 90th minute of the match, managed to save Al-Femur FC from getting a goal against them. After a defensive mix-up in Al-Femur FC's zone, Marcial Belasko stole the ball and had only the goalie to beat. Raul Hever came out of the goal and Marcial Belasko tried to chip the ball over his head. To his dismay, the ball went over the crossbar and out of play. Iker Oskarbi lost his temper 96 minutes into the game and shoved another player to the ground. He was immediately shown a red card. The Al-Femur FC fans had already started to leave before the final whistle blew. Simbo FC were clearly better and deserved to take the win.
