After some careless play in the Barcelona defense, Corozo Unceta kicked a shot that curved into the net to the right of Stanislaw Pawelczyk. The Barcelona fans voiced their displeasure as they felt that Stanislaw Pawelczyk should have stopped the shot. José-Luis Garnelo was astounded when the referee showed him the red card after a seemingly innocent challenge, 28 minutes into the match. 27 minutes into the game, one of Barcelona:s players got tackled near the goal, and the referee blew for a penalty. The referee gave Curiloma FC a penalty, 30 minutes into the game.

After some fancy dribbling in the 41st minute, Calderón Remon managed to get in a good position for a shot. Barcelona's supporters rose to their feet, but Calderón Remon was a bit off balance and shot the ball just wide of the left post. Xesus Pumarejo breathed a sigh of relief and went to take the goal kick. After 42 played minutes Curiloma FC got a freekick which was hit by Corozo Unceta. Yambay Confercin fired away a screaming shot towards the goal in the 45th minute, but the shot went just over the crossbar without Stanislaw Pawelczyk having to interfere. Even after changing tactics the home team jogged off the field with a 1-2 deficit. They would have to work harder if they wanted to turn things around in the second half.

The hometeam waved at the audience when it was time for Yambay Confercin to strike the kick off in the second half. Curiloma FC's Xesus Pumarejo played magnificently when he managed to stop the ball from hitting the goal, after a sharp shot by Calderón Remon in the 56th minute of play. Lucas Badas might have been able to make a better finish in the 66th minute when he tried to place a hard shot over Xesus Pumarejo. Instead the ball went over the crossbar and out. Lucas Badas ran back to his position shaking his head. The audience thought a goal was coming when Batista Egea got free with Stanislaw Pawelczyk in the 74th minute, but the goalkeeper managed to catch the ball with a huge effort. 76 minutes into the match, Barcelona's goalkeeper Stanislaw Pawelczyk had to clear away a ball on his right side after a cunning shot by Rubén Fariñas. Calderón Remon sent away a hard shot on goal in the 79th minute, but the ball went just over the crossbar and out. A very good chance. Al Deveraux took the ball and in the 83 minute, shot a rapid shot to the right of a surprised Xesus Pumarejo. Xesus Pumarejo dived to the right, and did manage to get a hand on the shot, but it still went into the right corner making it 2-3. Xesus Pumarejo made a wonderful reflex save on a shot from Calderón Remon in the 88th minute of play. 90 minutes into the match, Barcelona's Al Deveraux sent off a blazing shot straight on target, a shot that Xesus Pumarejo narrowly saved just below the crossbar. After a defensive mix-up in Curiloma FC's zone, Calderón Remon stole the ball and had only the goalie to beat. Xesus Pumarejo came out of the goal and Calderón Remon tried to chip the ball over his head. To his dismay, the ball went over the crossbar and out of play. If Batista Egea had kept his shot down it would have been a goal in the 94th minute. The ball went over the crossbar and out instead. The Curiloma FC supporters could be heard counting down the last seconds of the match. They errupted in celebration when the whistle blew, knowing Curiloma FC would go home with victory in their luggage after a match that easily could have ended differently.
