Spectators: 32 (Terracing: 25, Seating: 7, VIP seats: 0) It was fairly windy and cold on the field when Fernan Silvanito kicked off to start the match. An unexpectedly hard shot by Arturo Emeterio in the 3rd minute of play forced Manantiales's goalkeeper Gabriel Ofelio to throw himself to the left, to be able to save the ball. Fernan Silvanito recieved an excellent pass in front of the goal in the 5th minute. Unfortunately, he received the ball on his off foot and could only manage a weak shot that went over the goal. Arturo Emeterio struck a weak shot in the 8th minute. Gabriel Ofelio didn't even have to move as the ball rolled over the line well wide of the goal. A wasted opportunity for Coig. Gabriel Ofelio made an important save on a dangerous shot by Sebastian Quintana in the 10th minute. 13 minutes into the match, Arturo Emeterio dribbled the ball past the defender and swiftly kicked the ball to the left of Gabriel Ofelio, 1-0. If Honorio Sarracino had kept his shot down it would have been a goal in the 18th minute. The ball went over the crossbar and out instead. In the 20th minute Fernan Silvanito shot on, it seemed, an open goal, but Evelio Ramond saw the ball coming and threw himself on it before it passed the goal line.

After 46 minutes of play, Coig's Ildefonso Presebal made it 2-0 when he simply outclassed the defender marking him and hit a curling shot into the right side of the net. Gabriel Ofelio was left in no man's land by his defense there! No-one was surprised that the home team were leading 2-0 at half-time.

The players of the home team were most fresh-looking when they entered the field to play the second half. Arturo Emeterio was the one to do the kick off. After some fancy dribbling in the 52nd minute, Honorio Sarracino managed to get in a good position for a shot. Manantiales's supporters rose to their feet, but Honorio Sarracino was a bit off balance and shot the ball just wide of the left post. Evelio Ramond breathed a sigh of relief and went to take the goal kick. After a defensive mix-up in Manantiales's zone, Arturo Emeterio stole the ball and had only the goalie to beat. Gabriel Ofelio came out of the goal and Arturo Emeterio tried to chip the ball over his head. To his dismay, the ball went over the crossbar and out of play. When Sebastian Quintana came up free with the goalie in the 60th minute, the Coig 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 Sebastian Quintana couldn't finish the play. Roque Honesto kicked well hit freekick during the 61st minute of the match. When the match clock showed 64 minutes, the score became 3-0 when Arturo Emeterio sped through Manantiales's defense and sent away a curving shot that went into the net to the right of Gabriel Ofelio. 70 minutes into the match, Sebastian Quintana notched a goal, 4-0, to the right of Manantiales's Gabriel Ofelio. Gabriel Ofelio was clearly disgusted with the effort of the defense and let the defenders know about it. In the 78th minute of the match Ildefonso Presebal shot from a long distance. The ball could have gone into the goal to the right of the goalkeeper, but Gabriel Ofelio showed his good shape when he easily got hold of the ball. Braulio Rosalio hit a great freekick 79 minutes into the match. After 84 played minutes Coig got a freekick which was hit by Silvano Cucao. Evelio Ramond was in exellent shape and made a fantastic save when he, in the 89th minute of the match, managed to get hold of the ball after a long shot from Eustacio Urdaspal. Evelio Ramond took care of the ball after a well-directed shot from Fernan Silvanito, even though the ball almost passed him on his left side. In the 94th minute Arturo Emeterio shot on, it seemed, an open goal, but Gabriel Ofelio saw the ball coming and threw himself on it before it passed the goal line.
