Isaac Costa's shot when he came free in front of the goal in the 7thth minute, Enrique Doblas skillfully showed off with a save to what seemed to be an obvious goal.

After 37 played minutes, Alhama Esprings's Aritz Casas shot from a long distance, and at first it looked like the ball was going into the goal, but the goalkeeper Unai Duarte 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 Alhama Esprings reached it. In the 44th minute, Cortez De Pedro 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. The crowd was extremely unhappy with the home team's performance in the first half. They were losing 0-2.

When the second half was about to start, both teams quickly lined up and Cucao Taules made a kick off. When Everardo Carmona fell near the penalty area in the 56th minute he thought he would be awarded a free kick. The referee ignored Canovelles's protests and gave Everardo Carmona a yellow card for diving instead. After a rather tough play, Canovelles's Everardo Carmona got a free kick in the 56th minute. After some fancy dribbling in the 57th minute, Jose-Antonio Solera managed to get in a good position for a shot. Alhama Esprings's supporters rose to their feet, but Jose-Antonio Solera was a bit off balance and shot the ball just wide of the left post. Unai Duarte breathed a sigh of relief and went to take the goal kick. If Clodio Saura had kept his shot down it would have been a goal in the 61st minute. The ball went over the crossbar instead. The audience was convinced that Isaac Costa's extremely hard shot when he got free in front of the goal was going in, but Enrique Doblas was relentless in the 63rd minute of the game.

But to his dismay, Isaac Costa quickly shot the ball in between his legs and into the goal making it 1-2. Roger Vidal hit a great freekick 84 minutes into the match. After 89 minutes, Aritz Casas mouthed his way into the referee's book. The tension between the Alhama Esprings and the Canovelles players grew even worse after the yellow card. After 90 played minutes Alhama Esprings got a freekick which was hit by Aritz Casas. 91 minutes into the match, Canovelles's Polifemo Alonso broke free and took a long shot that unfortunately flew wide.
