Yuna FC's manager was livid on the sidelines, but the referee was unmoved and gave Airetupal EXC the free kick. Eron Monesterio hit a great freekick 31 minutes into the match. A hard shot 36 in the game by Vitorino Pinos from a close distance when the talented Xuoco Cañaveral managed to make a qualified save.

The wind increased when Burutzagi Brunati made the kick off in the second half. When Yuna FC's Vitorino Pinos in the 55th minute got a chance for a shot 55th didn't hesitate and placed the ball to the right of the goalie. A beautiful save bye Airetupal EXC's goalie prevented a goal. In the 57th minute Paulin Belloso shot on, it seemed, an open goal, but Xuoco Cañaveral saw the ball coming and threw himself on it before it passed the goal line. Hipolito Ruano in the 59thth minute had a little luck and got a chance for a shot in front of the goal. Without hesitation aimed to the right of Chano Espina, who managed to lunge to the right direction and made a save. After 60 played minutes Yuna FC got a freekick which was hit by Firmo Lizundia. Chano Espina took care of the ball after a well-directed shot from Burutzagi Brunati, even though the ball almost passed him on his left side. In the 69thth minute of the game Paulin Belloso who was perfectly placed tried to make a shot on goal, but Airetupal EXC's Xuoco Cañaveral was lucky and managed to grab hold of the ball. Burutzagi Brunati struck a weak shot in the 74th minute. Chano Espina didn't even have to move as the ball rolled over the line well wide of the goal. A wasted opportunity for Airetupal EXC. In the 78th minute, Hipolito Ruano left the goalkeeper for dead before tapping the ball into the right side of the net. The Airetupal EXC fans were clearly happy with the effort and the scoreboard reflected the new score: 1-1. Paulin Belloso scored 2-1 in the 87th match minute with a shot that went into the goal to the right of Xuoco Cañaveral, who was just a little too slow in reacting to the shot. 95 minutes into the match, Paulin Belloso had an open shot that he just couldn't miss and scored to the right of Xuoco Cañaveral. Airetupal EXC's manager could be seen yelling to the referee that Paulin Belloso was offside, but the referee ignored the protest. 3-1. Yuna FC were really happy, having secured the victory after a very even contest. They thanked the players of Airetupal EXC for a fine match.
