Stadio Borgo Murator
Spectators: 34 (Terracing: 26, Seating: 8, VIP seats: 0) In the 5th minute the ball was on its way in behind Alessioteam's goalkeeper Anselmo Mattioli, but with the help of a sacrificing defense, he could catch the ball at the crossbar. After a defensive mix-up in Alessioteam's zone, Anthony Scurti stole the ball and had only the goalie to beat. Anselmo Mattioli came out of the goal and Anthony Scurti tried to chip the ball over his head. To his dismay, the ball went over the crossbar and out of play. In the 11thth minute of the game Anthony Scurti who was perfectly placed tried to make a shot on goal, but Alessioteam's Anselmo Mattioli was lucky and managed to grab hold of the ball. If Armin Di Maio had kept his shot down it would have been a goal in the 24th minute. The ball went over the crossbar and out instead. After having played for 28 minutes, Augusto Evani managed to get in a good position for a shot on goal. Alessioteam's supporters crossed their fingers, but Augusto Evani was, after a quick turn that froze the defenders, out of balance and shot the ball just to the right of the goal. 33 minutes into the match, Alessioteam's goal looked a bit too open when Adriano Chizzo came free, but Anselmo Mattioli reached the ball before it rolled over the goal line. Mezzana Casati's Anthony Scurti got a good chance for a goal in the 37th minute, but he totally mistimed the shot and it went over the crossbar. Adriano Chizzo sent away a hard shot on goal in the 38th minute, but the ball hit the crossbar and went out. A very good chance for a goal. Adriano Chizzo received a nice pass in the box and took a hard shot in the 41st minute. Anselmo Mattioli tensed up and prepared to dive, but the shot went over the goal with him having to interfere. After a rather tough play, Mezzana Casati's Ennio Addari got a free kick in the 43rd minute. Andrea Rubini was probably a little too eager to shoot when he, in the 44th played minute, shot the ball from way out. The shot was hard, but the ball flew wide of the goal. After a very even first half the match was still tied. The players went to their respective dressing rooms to discuss the tactics for the second half.

The players of the away team seemed most concentrated when Anthony Scurti stepped up to make the kick off in the second half. In the 53rd minute, Bernardo Capasso 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 audience thought a goal was coming when Adriano Chizzo got free with Anselmo Mattioli in the 61st minute, but the goalkeeper managed to catch the ball with a huge effort. Adriano Chizzo received a nice pass in the box and took a hard shot in the 73rd minute. Anselmo Mattioli tensed up and prepared to dive, but the shot went over the goal with him having to interfere. Anselmo Mattioli made a wonderful reflex save on a shot from Anthony Scurti in the 76th minute of play. In the 77th minute, Anthony Scurti reached a very good position and smashed the ball with a huge effort into the net, just to the left of Anselmo Mattioli. The goal made the score 0-2. Anthony Scurti sent away a hard shot on goal in the 87th minute, but the ball went just over the crossbar and out. A very good chance. Adriano Chizzo in the 91stth minute had a little luck and got a chance for a shot in front of the goal. Without hesitation aimed to the right of Anselmo Mattioli, who managed to lunge to the right direction and made a save. Anselmo Mattioli took care of the ball after a well-directed shot from Anthony Scurti, even though the ball almost passed him on his left side. The Alessioteam fans had already started to leave before the final whistle blew. Mezzana Casati were clearly better and deserved to take the win.
