Legarda
Spectators: 33 (Terracing: 26, Seating: 7, VIP seats: 0) The field was rather wet after several days of rain when Aristeo Veloso took the kick off in the first half of the match. The supporters of Legarda AFC booed when MOREIRA was adjudged a doubtful freekick after 5 match minutes in a wonderful position. Rainerio Acedo didn't get a good kick on the ball. Zarbonin Quevedo took care of the ball after a well-directed shot from Crispo Cartagena, even though the ball almost passed him on his left side. 20 minutes into the match, MOREIRA's goalkeeper Macias Figueres had to clear away a ball on his right side after a cunning shot by Román Mangas. Crispo Cartagena 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. When Aristeo Veloso came up free with the goalie in the 27th minute, the Legarda AFC 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 Aristeo Veloso couldn't finish the play. If Aristeo Veloso had kept his shot down it would have been a goal in the 30th minute. The ball went over the crossbar and out instead. An unexpectedly hard shot by Constancio Lillo in the 34th minute of play forced Legarda AFC's goalkeeper Zarbonin Quevedo to throw himself to the left, to be able to save the ball. When Constancio Lillo came up free with the goalie in the 37th minute, the MOREIRA 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 Constancio Lillo couldn't finish the play. MOREIRA's Crispo Cartagena got a good chance for a goal in the 39th minute, but he totally mistimed the shot and it went over the crossbar. The audience was convinced that Aristeo Veloso's extremely hard shot when he got free in front of the goal was going in, but Macias Figueres was relentless in the 43rd minute of the game. The first half was very even, with the score at 1-1 when the whistle went for half-time. The players welcomed the break and quickly retired to the dressing rooms.

The hometeam waved at the audience when it was time for Crispo Cartagena to strike the kick off in the second half. Constancio Lillo's shot when he came free in front of the goal in the 53rdth minute, Zarbonin Quevedo skillfully showed off with a save to what seemed to be an obvious goal. In the 54th minute, Constancio Lillo got an opportunity to score, but he didn't get a solid hit on the ball and ended up kicking it wide of the goal. Legarda AFC's Zarbonin Quevedo played magnificently when he managed to stop the ball from hitting the goal, after a sharp shot by Crispo Cartagena in the 56th minute of play.

The supporters of MOREIRA booed when Legarda AFC was adjudged a doubtful freekick after 67 match minutes in a wonderful position. Anxelu Montero didn't get a good kick on the ball. After a defensive mix-up in Legarda AFC's zone, Crispo Cartagena stole the ball and had only the goalie to beat. Zarbonin Quevedo came out of the goal and Crispo Cartagena tried to chip the ball over his head. To his dismay, the ball went over the crossbar and out of play. In the 73rd minute the ball was on its way in behind Legarda AFC's goalkeeper Zarbonin Quevedo, but with the help of a sacrificing defense, he could catch the ball at the crossbar. In the 75th minute, Román Mangas ran past the defenders and hit a shot which went straight ahead into goal. Macias Figueres was frozen by the shot and now it was 2-1. Constancio Lillo fired away a screaming shot towards the goal in the 83rd minute, but the shot went just over the crossbar without Zarbonin Quevedo having to interfere. Zarbonin Quevedo was a little too slow when Crispo Cartagena got a fine hit on the ball which went right into the goal in the 84th minute. The score was now 2-2. Macias Figueres stood for a superb save when he managed to get hold of Román Mangas's shot from short distance in the 91st minute. Macias Figueres showed his good apprehension of the play when he made a fantastic save on a shot from Aristeo Veloso, who was totally free with the ball in the 96th minute.
