Spectators: 33 (Terracing: 26, Seating: 7, VIP seats: 0) Alfonso Patrizi made the kick off and thus started the match. When Alfonso Cannavacciuolo came up free with the goalie in the 4th minute, the Penta Real F.C. 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 Alfonso Cannavacciuolo couldn't finish the play. 7 minutes into the match, Cangia AFC's goal looked a bit too open when Alfonso Cannavacciuolo came free, but Israel Porlier reached the ball before it rolled over the goal line.

The referee showed Fedele Marinetti the yellow card, and asked the players to shake hands before continuing play. After having played for 25 minutes, Aurelio Mansueto managed to get in a good position for a shot on goal.

Antonello Maio's late challenge caught a Cangia AFC's player on the shin and left him crawling around in pain. The referee blew his whistle and produced the yellow card.

In the 33rd minute, Penta Real F.C.'s Alfonso Cannavacciuolo ran free of his marker and smoothly shot the ball into the goal behind Israel Porlier. Israel Porlier yelled at his defense, as they had left him out to dry. 2-0. If Aurelio Mansueto had kept his shot down it would have been a goal in the 36th minute. The ball went over the crossbar and out instead. Israel Porlier was a little too slow when Aurelio Mansueto got a fine hit on the ball which went right into the goal in the 40th minute. The score was now 3-0.

After some fancy dribbling in the 91st minute, Alfonso Cannavacciuolo managed to get in a good position for a shot.
