Spectators: 10139 (Terracing: 7929, Seating: 2000, VIP seats: 210) The field was rather wet after several days of rain when Ambrosio Pepillo took the kick off in the first half of the match. After 3 played minutes Rapsodas Red Devils FC got a freekick which was hit by Edgar Donato. After some fancy dribbling in the 8th minute, Ambrosio Pepillo managed to get in a good position for a shot. Rapsodas Red Devils FC's supporters rose to their feet, but Ambrosio Pepillo was a bit off balance and shot the ball just wide of the left post. Oscar Federspiel breathed a sigh of relief and went to take the goal kick. 14 minutes into the match, SAPRIMECKBEL's goal looked a bit too open when Ambrosio Pepillo came free, but Oscar Federspiel reached the ball before it rolled over the goal line. The audience was convinced that Ambrosio Pepillo's extremely hard shot when he got free in front of the goal was going in, but Oscar Federspiel was relentless in the 18th minute of the game. The audience thought a goal was coming when Dé Čáp got free with Frank Morris in the 20th minute, but the goalkeeper managed to catch the ball with a huge effort. Dé Čáp spun around in front of the goal 20 minutes in the game, and got away a shot that, to his disappointment, went to the left of Rapsodas Red Devils FC's goal.

In the 27th minute, Mićo Grande hit a crossing free kick to the open man running down the field. The supporters of Rapsodas Red Devils FC booed when SAPRIMECKBEL was adjudged a doubtful freekick after 30 match minutes in a wonderful position. Mićo Grande didn't get a good kick on the ball. If Kerry Flöter had kept his shot down it would have been a goal in the 32nd minute. The ball went over the crossbar instead. Rapsodas Red Devils FC's Justino Fontevilla quite brazenly broke a throw-in by Mićo Grande, made in the 34th minute of the game. Frank Morris stood for a superb save when he managed to get hold of Kerry Flöter's shot from short distance in the 37th minute.

Oscar Federspiel was clearly disgusted with the effort of the defense and let the defenders know about it. Luck had favoured the away team in the first, and they walked off with a 0-3 lead.

Domingo Mendiko sent away a hard shot on goal in the 57th minute, but the ball went just over the crossbar and out. A very good chance. Oscar Federspiel was a little too slow when Ambrosio Pepillo got a fine hit on the ball which went right into the goal in the 62nd minute. The score was now 0-4. Frank Morris took care of the ball after a well-directed shot from Jaime Quiros, even though the ball almost passed him on his left side. Rapsodas Red Devils FC's Aaron Amarita was substituted for Edgar Donato. Rapsodas Red Devils FC's Fiz Miñano was substituted for Ambrosio Pepillo. 69 minutes into the game, Cesar Larra threw the ball into play from the sideline.

Frank Morris was left in no man's land by his defense there! The audience was convinced that Sidónio Silva's extremely hard shot when he got free in front of the goal was going in, but Frank Morris was relentless in the 97th minute of the game.
