Estadio Platero
Spectators: 34 (Terracing: 26, Seating: 8, VIP seats: 0) It was fairly windy and cold on the field when Patxi Galanes kicked off to start the match. After a defensive mix-up in Salta FC's zone, Patxi Galanes stole the ball and had only the goalie to beat. Cordaryal Munozcano came out of the goal and Patxi Galanes tried to chip the ball over his head. To his dismay, the ball went over the crossbar and out of play. With 5 minutes on the clock, Asier Zumaya commited a dangerous tackle. The referee had no choice but to show him the red card. 5 minutes into the game, one of Salta FC:s players got tackled near the goal, and the referee blew for a penalty. After 9 played minutes Platero FC got a freekick which was hit by Zuriko Amor. When Patxi Galanes came up free with the goalie in the 13th minute, the Platero FC 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 Patxi Galanes couldn't finish the play. Domenec Eguilaz took care of the ball after a well-directed shot from Enetz Angostina, even though the ball almost passed him on his left side. Salta FC's Cordaryal Munozcano proved his good apprehension of play when he, in the 28th minute of the match, managed to save Salta FC from getting a goal against them. Cordaryal Munozcano made a fantastic save in the 31st minute, when Isidoro Giralte sent off a good shot on target. If Patxi Galanes had kept his shot down it would have been a goal in the 38th minute. The ball went over the crossbar and out instead. After some fancy dribbling in the 40th minute, Isidoro Giralte managed to get in a good position for a shot. Platero FC's supporters rose to their feet, but Isidoro Giralte was a bit off balance and shot the ball just wide of the left post. Cordaryal Munozcano breathed a sigh of relief and went to take the goal kick. Patxi Galanes sent away a hard shot on goal in the 45th minute, but the ball went just over the crossbar and out. A very good chance. After a rather tough play, Salta FC's Oso Miranda got a free kick in the 46th minute.

When the second half was about to start, both teams quickly lined up and Enetz Angostina made a kick off. Patxi Galanes struck a weak shot in the 53rd minute. Cordaryal Munozcano didn't even have to move as the ball rolled over the line well wide of the goal. A wasted opportunity for Platero FC. 60 minutes into the match, Salta FC's goal looked a bit too open when Isidoro Giralte came free, but Cordaryal Munozcano reached the ball before it rolled over the goal line. Enetz Angostina could have scored with his fast shot on goal in the 66th minute of the match, but Domenec Eguilaz made a huge save. Thanks to some nice foot action and superb ball handling Isidoro Giralte in the 67th minute a chance for a shot on goal. With an extended leg and a bit of luck Cordaryal Munozcano prevented the ball from getting in the gole. Milian Bada charged in rather forcefully in the 68th minute of the match, and managed to knock his opponent down. The referee showed Milian Bada the yellow card, and asked the players to shake hands before continuing play. After 68 played minutes Salta FC got a freekick which was hit by Milian Bada. 74 minutes into the match, Patxi Galanes had an open shot that he just couldn't miss and scored to the right of Cordaryal Munozcano. Salta FC's manager could be seen yelling to the referee that Patxi Galanes was offside, but the referee ignored the protest. 3-1. Patxi Galanes recieved an excellent pass in front of the goal in the 78th minute. Unfortunately, he received the ball on his off foot and could only manage a weak shot that went over the goal. Isidoro Giralte fired away a screaming shot towards the goal in the 79th minute, but the shot went just over the crossbar without Cordaryal Munozcano having to interfere. Isidoro Giralte sent away a hard shot on goal in the 95th minute, but the ball went just over the crossbar and out. A very good chance. A collision led to Salta FC getting a freekick after 96 minutes play. Oso Miranda hit a great ball. Patxi Galanes sent away a hard shot on goal in the 97th minute, but the ball went just over the crossbar and out. A very good chance. There were very few away supporters still in the ground by the end of the match. Most of them had left early, disgusted by the way their team had been torn apart. Platero FC fully deserved thier win.
