Anazco
Spectators: 35 (Terracing: 27, Seating: 8, VIP seats: 0) It was fairly windy and cold on the field when Osoro Rengifo kicked off to start the match. In the 4thth minute of the game Osoro Rengifo who was perfectly placed tried to make a shot on goal, but AC Fusa's Bittor Gama was lucky and managed to grab hold of the ball. The audience thought a goal was coming when Marcelo Anda got free with Bittor Gama in the 7th minute, but the goalkeeper managed to catch the ball with a huge effort. After a defensive mix-up in AC Fusa's zone, Osoro Rengifo stole the ball and had only the goalie to beat. Bittor Gama came out of the goal and Osoro Rengifo tried to chip the ball over his head. To his dismay, the ball went over the crossbar and out of play. Marcelo Anda in the 10thth minute had a little luck and got a chance for a shot in front of the goal. Without hesitation aimed to the right of Bittor Gama, who managed to lunge to the right direction and made a save. The referee was alert and spotted a serious foul by Playo Cruz during the 12th minute. The player immediately received a yellow card. In the 12th minute, Playo Cruz hit a crossing free kick to the open man running down the field. Osoro Rengifo fired away a screaming shot towards the goal in the 14th minute, but the shot went just over the crossbar without Bittor Gama having to interfere. After having played for 16 minutes, Osoro Rengifo managed to get in a good position for a shot on goal. Anazco FC's supporters crossed their fingers, but Osoro Rengifo was, after a quick turn that froze the defenders, out of balance and shot the ball just to the right of the goal. Thanks to some nice foot action and superb ball handling Egun Cascos in the 23rd minute a chance for a shot on goal. With an extended leg and a bit of luck Roman Bujan prevented the ball from getting in the gole. In the 25th minute, Osmundo Urraburu ran past the defenders and hit a shot which went straight ahead into goal. Roman Bujan was frozen by the shot and now it was 0-1. After some fancy dribbling in the 31st minute, Osoro Rengifo managed to get in a good position for a shot. Anazco FC's supporters rose to their feet, but Osoro Rengifo was a bit off balance and shot the ball just wide of the left post. Bittor Gama breathed a sigh of relief and went to take the goal kick. Roman Bujan showed his good apprehension of the play when he made a fantastic save on a shot from Egun Cascos, who was totally free with the ball in the 38th minute. Osmundo Urraburu sent away a hard shot on goal in the 39th minute, but the ball went just over the crossbar and out. A very good chance. An unexpected shot in the 46th minute by Marcelo Anda got the crowd on their feet, but to their dismay it went out on the left side. Luck had favoured the away team in the first, and they walked off with a 0-1 lead.

Both teams looked relatively alert before the second half when the referee blew his whistle to tell Egun Cascos to make the kick off. Bittor Gama showed brilliant goalkeeper skills when he caught the ball after a hard shot from Chale Pablo in the 57th minute of the match. Marcelo Anda received a nice pass in the box and took a hard shot in the 64th minute. Bittor Gama tensed up and prepared to dive, but the shot went over the goal with him having to interfere. Egun Cascos's shot was meant for the net just under the crossbar, but Roman Bujan read the situation well and was quickly in position to make a wonderful save in the 65th minute of play. In the 66th minute, Marcelo Anda hit a crossing free kick to the open man running down the field. If Osmundo Urraburu had kept his shot down it would have been a goal in the 68th minute. The ball went over the crossbar and out instead. When Honorato Urquicia fell near the penalty area in the 71st minute he thought he would be awarded a free kick. The referee ignored AC Fusa's protests and gave Honorato Urquicia a yellow card for diving instead. Marcelo Anda fired away a screaming shot towards the goal in the 82nd minute, but the shot went just over the crossbar without Bittor Gama having to interfere. AC Fusa's Bittor Gama played magnificently when he managed to stop the ball from hitting the goal, after a sharp shot by Osoro Rengifo in the 88th minute of play. The Anazco FC manager could be seen shouting at his players as they walked down the tunnel after the match. He was clearly angry that they had squandered their superior possession, allowing AC Fusa to win.
