Spectators: 35 (Terracing: 27, Seating: 8, VIP seats: 0) The field was rather wet after several days of rain when Sven-Hendrik Ohmer took the kick off in the first half of the match. After a rather tough play, Eigtheenstars 2's Nunez Txartiko got a free kick in the 6th minute. Ernesto Baristo could have scored with his fast shot on goal in the 11th minute of the match, but Evelio Salvadore made a huge save. After 13 played minutes Eigtheenstars 2 got a freekick which was hit by Bartosz Przybyciel. 18 minutes in the game Bartosz Przybyciel did a throw-in, and the ball was quickly in game thanks to Dong Hui Ke. An unexpectedly hard shot by Sven-Hendrik Ohmer in the 29th minute of play forced Eigtheenstars 2's goalkeeper Ignacio Valery to throw himself to the left, to be able to save the ball.

The corner went over the outstretched arms of Eigtheenstars 2's goalie and right to Marcos Acuña. He fired away a shot at goal, but the shot had too much spin, and it went just outside the goal. Eigtheenstars 2's manager breathed a sigh of relief on the sidelines as his team had managed to escape an almost certain goal. If Marcos Acuña had kept his shot down it would have been a goal in the 45th minute. The ball went over the crossbar and out instead. After some fancy dribbling in the 47th minute, Sven-Hendrik Ohmer managed to get in a good position for a shot. C.A.Esparta's supporters rose to their feet, but Sven-Hendrik Ohmer was a bit off balance and shot the ball just wide of the left post. Ignacio Valery breathed a sigh of relief and went to take the goal kick. Even after changing tactics the home team jogged off the field with a 0-2 deficit. They would have to work harder if they wanted to turn things around in the second half.
