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. Poli Gimenez started the match with the kick off. Iñaki Guerrero made a wonderful reflex save on a shot from Benja Lillo in the 4th minute of play. When Arrosko Yeste came up free with the goalie in the 5th minute, the San García 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 Arrosko Yeste couldn't finish the play. With a little luck, San García's Goiz Higuera got control of the ball when Pau Urbina tried to sneak it across the goal line. PROGAPE OURENSE F.C.'s Iñaki Guerrero played magnificently when he managed to stop the ball from hitting the goal, after a sharp shot by Higinio Verdeja in the 16th minute of play. Arrosko Yeste sent away a hard shot on goal in the 27th minute, but the ball went just over the crossbar and out. A very good chance.

After having played for 36 minutes, Arrosko Yeste managed to get in a good position for a shot on goal.

In the 45th minute Poli Gimenez shot on, it seemed, an open goal, but Goiz Higuera saw the ball coming and threw himself on it before it passed the goal line. The first half was very even, with the score at 0-0 when the whistle went for half-time. The players welcomed the break and quickly retired to the dressing rooms.

Both teams looked relatively alert before the second half when the referee blew his whistle to tell Higinio Verdeja to make the kick off. After 51 minutes, Poli Gimenez mouthed his way into the referee's book. The tension between the PROGAPE OURENSE F.C. and the San García players grew even worse after the yellow card.

A very good chance. Arrosko Yeste struck a weak shot in the 63rd minute. Iñaki Guerrero didn't even have to move as the ball rolled over the line well wide of the goal. A wasted opportunity for San García. After a defensive mix-up in PROGAPE OURENSE F.C.'s zone, Arrosko Yeste stole the ball and had only the goalie to beat. Iñaki Guerrero came out of the goal and Arrosko Yeste tried to chip the ball over his head. To his dismay, the ball went over the crossbar and out of play.

Pau Urbina succeeded in the game's 75th minute to shoot an unreachable shot under the crossbar and scored - 1-0. In the 83rd minute Xanti Vallejo shot on, it seemed, an open goal, but Iñaki Guerrero saw the ball coming and threw himself on it before it passed the goal line. Xanti Vallejo had several of the PROGAPE OURENSE F.C.'s defenders around him in the penalty area when he, after 83 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 1-1 score and a disappointed Iñaki Guerrero as he didn't even see the shot coming.
