Estadio Miramar
Spectators: 34 (Terracing: 26, Seating: 8, VIP seats: 0) Dark clouds were building up when the players entered the field. None of the them looked very eager to play. Alejo Aceves started the match with the kick off. Víctor Alcalde showed brilliant goalkeeper skills when he caught the ball after a hard shot from Alejo Aceves in the 10th minute of the match. Alberto Ramirez sent away a hard shot on goal in the 12th minute, but the ball went just over the crossbar and out. A very good chance. After 17 played minutes, Benidoleig's Beltran Arenas shot from a long distance, and at first it looked like the ball was going into the goal, but the goalkeeper Aresti Zamora 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 Benidoleig reached it. If Ametz Mudarra had kept his shot down it would have been a goal in the 19th minute. The ball went over the crossbar and out instead. Severo Talavera received a nice pass in the box and took a hard shot in the 23rd minute.
