In the 4th minute the ball was on its way in behind Pegale De Puntín's goalkeeper Osvaldo Iratze, but with the help of a sacrificing defense, he could catch the ball at the crossbar. 6 minutes into the game, Prudencio Onofre cracked a shot to the right of the goalkeeper, 0-1. Florian Cuevas was not in position, and could only watch the ball fly in. Carlos Ponte in the 16thth minute had a little luck and got a chance for a shot in front of the goal. Without hesitation aimed to the right of Osvaldo Iratze, who managed to lunge to the right direction and made a save. After some careless play in the Turbo Kame Corp defense, Prudencio Onofre kicked a shot that curved into the net to the right of Florian Cuevas. The Turbo Kame Corp fans voiced their displeasure as they felt that Florian Cuevas should have stopped the shot. Alberto Xabier might have been able to make a better finish in the 25th minute when he tried to place a hard shot over Florian Cuevas. Instead the ball went over the crossbar and out. Alberto Xabier ran back to his position shaking his head. Carlos Ponte had several of the Pegale De Puntín's defenders around him in the penalty area when he, after 29 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 1-2 score and a disappointed Osvaldo Iratze as he didn't even see the shot coming. Venancio Viviano charged in rather forcefully in the 35th minute of the match, and managed to knock his opponent down. The referee showed Venancio Viviano the yellow card, and asked the players to shake hands before continuing play. A collision led to Pegale De Puntín getting a freekick after 35 minutes play. Venancio Viviano hit a great ball. Iyan Puyol received a nice pass in the box and took a hard shot in the 37th minute. Osvaldo Iratze tensed up and prepared to dive, but the shot went over the goal with him having to interfere. Osvaldo Iratze made an important save on a dangerous shot by Iyan Puyol in the 38th minute. Carlos Ponte's shot was meant for the net just under the crossbar, but Osvaldo Iratze read the situation well and was quickly in position to make a wonderful save in the 40th minute of play. After 42 minutes Pegale De Puntín's defender was forced to head the ball over the line for a corner. It was José Barro who took care of the corner kick. The corner led Turbo Kame Corp's José Barro to fire away a dangerous shot which Osvaldo Iratze despite some difficulties managed to get hold on the ball.

The players of the home team were most fresh-looking when they entered the field to play the second half. Prudencio Onofre was the one to do the kick off. With a little luck, Turbo Kame Corp's Florian Cuevas got control of the ball when Alberto Xabier tried to sneak it across the goal line. Alberto Xabier could have scored with his fast shot on goal in the 52nd minute of the match, but Florian Cuevas made a huge save. Turbo Kame Corp were awarded a corner in the 61th minute after Pegale De Puntín's defender lost control of the ball, allowing it to roll out over the line. José Barro took the corner. It was a well-played corner which Carlos Ponte managed to volley towards the net. Unfortunately, he didn't get a great hit on the ball and it went out into the grandstand. An unexpectedly hard shot by Carlos Ponte in the 69th minute of play forced Pegale De Puntín's goalkeeper Osvaldo Iratze to throw himself to the left, to be able to save the ball. In the 79th minute, Jorge Candamil hit a crossing free kick to the open man running down the field. Florian Cuevas made a fantastic save in the 80th minute, when Prudencio Onofre sent off a good shot on target. After 80 minutes, Prudencio Onofre made it 1-3 with a short kick to the right side. Turbo Kame Corp's Florian Cuevas tried to save the shot but he was too slow in reacting to the shot. In the 88th minute of the game Amancio Canor made a throw-in which Pedro Azeari played forward. In the 90th minute Pedro Azeari shot on, it seemed, an open goal, but Florian Cuevas saw the ball coming and threw himself on it before it passed the goal line. After a rather tough play, Turbo Kame Corp's Cristos Navarro got a free kick in the 91st minute. Pegale De Puntín's players went to the stands to thank the travelling support. The fan's backing had helped spurr the team on to a fine performance that won them the match.
