After having played for 62 minutes, Bernabe Abecia managed to get in a good position for a shot on goal. Los del Pike F.C's supporters crossed their fingers, but Bernabe Abecia was, after a quick turn that froze the defenders, out of balance and shot the ball just to the right of the goal. Bernabe Abecia got in the 65th a clear chance and fired away a hard shot against goal, but Segundo Leguizamón handled the situation perfectly and made a save by the crossbar. If Alejandro Ikatz had kept his shot down it would have been a goal in the 81st minute. The ball went over the crossbar and out instead. When Alejandro Ikatz came up free with the goalie in the 89th minute, the Los del Pike 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 Alejandro Ikatz couldn't finish the play.
