Estadio Tintina
Spectators: 32 (Terracing: 25, Seating: 7, VIP seats: 0) Tránsito FC's Baltasar Todor started the match with a crisp pass. The crowd had been anticipating this game for weeks and the excitement in the stadium was easily visible. Rene Txanton took a chance and fired a shot far from the goal in the 2nd minute, but it turned out to be a dangerous situation for Gilberto Mantzio. Tránsito FC's goalkeeper really had to stretch himself to stop the ball from crossing the goal line. After a rather tough play, Tintina FC's Santiago Goren got a free kick in the 4th minute. Anibal Bordat kicked well hit freekick during the 11th minute of the match. Eleuterio Lehen was probably a little too eager to shoot when he, in the 11th played minute, shot the ball from way out. The shot was hard, but the ball flew wide of the goal. The supporters of Tintina FC booed when Tránsito FC was adjudged a doubtful freekick after 12 match minutes in a wonderful position. Narciso Mincho didn't get a good kick on the ball. After some fancy dribbling in the 25th minute, Teodoro Esiquio managed to get in a good position for a shot. Tintina FC's supporters rose to their feet, but Teodoro Esiquio was a bit off balance and shot the ball just wide of the left post. Gilberto Mantzio breathed a sigh of relief and went to take the goal kick. Gualterio Berenguer charged in rather forcefully in the 31st minute of the match, and managed to knock his opponent down. The referee showed Gualterio Berenguer the yellow card, and asked the players to shake hands before continuing play. Gualterio Berenguer hit a great freekick 31 minutes into the match. Teodoro Esiquio fired away a screaming shot towards the goal in the 34th minute, but the shot went just over the crossbar without Gilberto Mantzio having to interfere. In the 38th minute of the match, Niceto Francho got a very nice opportunity to score, but Gilberto Mantzio was well-placed and pushed the ball away from the goal at the left post. The referee was alert and spotted a serious foul by Nereo Bizen during the 48th minute. The player immediately received a yellow card. After 48 played minutes Tránsito FC got a freekick which was hit by Nereo Bizen. After the first half the score was level. The break gave the players a chance to catch their breath, whilst the managers went over the tactics with them again.

The players of the away team seemed most concentrated when Teodoro Esiquio stepped up to make the kick off in the second half. Baltasar Todor recieved an excellent pass in front of the goal in the 54th minute. Unfortunately, he received the ball on his off foot and could only manage a weak shot that went over the goal. An unexpectedly hard shot by Niceto Francho in the 57th minute of play forced Tránsito FC's goalkeeper Gilberto Mantzio to throw himself to the left, to be able to save the ball. Tránsito FC's Baltasar Todor got a good chance for a goal in the 61st minute, but he totally mistimed the shot and it went over the crossbar. If Nereo Bizen had kept his shot down it would have been a goal in the 63rd minute. The ball went over the crossbar and out instead. Benicio Tome's late challenge caught a Tránsito FC's player on the shin and left him crawling around in pain. The referee blew his whistle and produced the yellow card. Benicio Tome helped the player get up and apologised. Benicio Tome kicked well hit freekick during the 65th minute of the match. 67 minutes had been played when some careless play by Tintina FC's defense caused the ball to cross the line for a corner. Elias Frechoso was slow to take the kick. During this time Tránsito FC's players had a chance to rest. Elias Frechoso made a great header on Tránsito FC's corner, it was just that Tintina FC's Apolo Abadia managed to reach the ball for a save. Apolo Abadia showed his good apprehension of the play when he made a fantastic save on a shot from Baltasar Todor, who was totally free with the ball in the 69th minute. Apolo Abadia showed brilliant goalkeeper skills when he caught the ball after a hard shot from Baltasar Todor in the 72nd minute of the match. After a rather tough play, Tintina FC's Gualterio Berenguer got a free kick in the 76th minute. When Gualterio Berenguer was, once again, overly rough in his play he received his second yellow card and was ordered off the ground. 80 minutes had been played. After some fancy dribbling in the 82nd minute, Baltasar Todor managed to get in a good position for a shot. Tránsito FC's supporters rose to their feet, but Baltasar Todor was a bit off balance and shot the ball just wide of the left post. Apolo Abadia breathed a sigh of relief and went to take the goal kick. If Baltasar Todor had kept his shot down it would have been a goal in the 91st minute. The ball went over the crossbar and out instead. The second half was just like the first, even and exciting. The match ended in a draw.
