Spectators: 33 (Terracing: 26, Seating: 7, VIP seats: 0) The sun was shining, the grass was green and the audience cheered when Eulalio Senen got the match started through his kick off. Matará's Justo Cordero got a good chance for a goal in the 2nd minute, but he totally mistimed the shot and it went over the crossbar.

Nicasio Oinatz sent away a hard shot on goal in the 14th minute, but the ball went just over the crossbar and out. A very good chance. After 16 minutes, Justo Cordero made it 1-0 with a short kick to the right side. Luque's Bernardo Dei tried to save the shot but he was too slow in reacting to the shot. An unexpectedly hard shot by Justo Cordero in the 20th minute of play forced Luque's goalkeeper Bernardo Dei to throw himself to the left, to be able to save the ball. Nicasio Oinatz struck a weak shot in the 22nd minute. Bernardo Dei didn't even have to move as the ball rolled over the line well wide of the goal. A wasted opportunity for Matará.

Benjamin Mitxel helped the player get up and apologised. After 41 played minutes Luque got a freekick which was hit by Benjamin Mitxel. In the 43rd minute, Justo Cordero fired away a shot on goal. He put a little to much spin on the ball and sent it just wide of the right post. After having played for 44 minutes, Nicasio Oinatz managed to get in a good position for a shot on goal. Matará's supporters crossed their fingers, but Nicasio Oinatz was, after a quick turn that froze the defenders, out of balance and shot the ball just to the right of the goal. In the 45th minute Justo Cordero shot on, it seemed, an open goal, but Bernardo Dei saw the ball coming and threw himself on it before it passed the goal line. Eulalio Senen fired away a screaming shot towards the goal in the 49th minute, but the shot went just over the crossbar without Rolando Ponc having to interfere.

Camilo Incendio helped the player get up and apologised. Cayetano Bartuelo shot the penalty kick right outside the post. When Eulalio Senen came up free with the goalie in the 68th minute, the Luque 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 Eulalio Senen couldn't finish the play. In the 79th minute, Nicasio Oinatz 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.

When Justo Cordero came up free with the goalie in the 100th minute, the Matará 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 Justo Cordero couldn't finish the play.
