Spectators: 34 (Terracing: 26, Seating: 8, VIP seats: 0) If Damian Pietro had kept his shot down it would have been a goal in the 4th minute. The ball went over the crossbar and out instead. Nereo Erramun sent away a hard shot on goal in the 7th minute, but the ball went just over the crossbar and out. A very good chance. Marayes AFC's attack was well implemented in the 9th minute, but when Adriana Bembe was about to shoot he didn't get a good hit on the ball and it hit the crossbar and flew over. Goal Kick. In the 11thth minute of the game Anacleto Koldo who was perfectly placed tried to make a shot on goal, but Marayes AFC's Cayetano Xabier was lucky and managed to grab hold of the ball. When Melchor Francho fell near the penalty area in the 12th minute he thought he would be awarded a free kick. The referee ignored Marayes AFC's protests and gave Melchor Francho a yellow card for diving instead. Melchor Francho kicked well hit freekick during the 13th minute of the match. Humberto Bartoleme showed brilliant goalkeeper skills when he caught the ball after a hard shot from Adriana Bembe in the 17th minute of the match. After 19 minutes of play, Marayes AFC's Nereo Erramun made it 1-0 when he simply outclassed the defender marking him and hit a curling shot into the right side of the net. Humberto Bartoleme was left in no man's land by his defense there! Nereo Erramun who was well placed in front of the goal fired away a dangerous shot that in the 35thth minute tested the skills of Humberto Bartoleme when he managed to save the team from getting behind. 38 minutes into the match, Anacleto Koldo had an open shot that he just couldn't miss and scored to the right of Cayetano Xabier. Marayes AFC's manager could be seen yelling to the referee that Anacleto Koldo was offside, but the referee ignored the protest. 1-1. 41 minutes into the match, Espinillo's Damian Pietro sent off a blazing shot straight on target, a shot that Cayetano Xabier narrowly saved just below the crossbar. After fighting hard for a draw in the first half, the players were able to take a much needed rest.

The players of the away team seemed most concentrated when Adriana Bembe stepped up to make the kick off in the second half. In the 53rd minute, Damian Pietro made a precise shot to the right of Cayetano Xabier. Marayes AFC's defense was at fault, and the scoreboard reflected the new score, 1-2. Humberto Bartoleme showed his good apprehension of the play when he made a fantastic save on a shot from Adriana Bembe, who was totally free with the ball in the 70th minute. Humberto Bartoleme came out of the goal in the 75th minute to try and stop a shot by Marayes AFC's Melchor Francho. But to his dismay, Melchor Francho quickly shot the ball in between his legs and into the goal making it 2-2. Anacleto Koldo sent away a hard shot on goal in the 82nd minute, but the ball went just over the crossbar and out. A very good chance. After some fancy dribbling in the 84th minute, Damian Pietro managed to get in a good position for a shot. Espinillo's supporters rose to their feet, but Damian Pietro was a bit off balance and shot the ball just wide of the left post. Cayetano Xabier breathed a sigh of relief and went to take the goal kick. Adriana Bembe recieved an excellent pass in front of the goal in the 86th minute. Unfortunately, he received the ball on his off foot and could only manage a weak shot that went over the goal. After 92 played minutes Marayes AFC got a freekick which was hit by Eugenio Calixto. 94 minutes into the match, Espinillo's Anacleto Koldo sent off a blazing shot straight on target, a shot that Cayetano Xabier narrowly saved just below the crossbar. Neither set of supporters seemed pleased with the draw, but both teams had played equally well today.
