Spectators: 32 (Terracing: 25, Seating: 7, VIP seats: 0) The sun was shining, the grass was green and the audience cheered when Paco Notes got the match started through his kick off. The crowd rose to their feet as Ayabamba's Paco Notes slotted home a wonderful shot that went in to the left of Camacho Queduro. That made the score 1-0 after 3 minutes of play. UD Duran's Camacho Queduro played magnificently when he managed to stop the ball from hitting the goal, after a sharp shot by Paco Notes in the 12th minute of play. In the 13th minute Rafael Loinaz shot on, it seemed, an open goal, but Arias Logroño saw the ball coming and threw himself on it before it passed the goal line. Thanks to some nice foot action and superb ball handling Paco Notes in the 15th minute a chance for a shot on goal. With an extended leg and a bit of luck Camacho Queduro prevented the ball from getting in the gole. When Paco Notes came up free with the goalie in the 23rd minute, the Ayabamba 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 Paco Notes couldn't finish the play. If Rafael Loinaz had kept his shot down it would have been a goal in the 27th minute. The ball went over the crossbar instead. A collision led to Ayabamba getting a freekick after 29 minutes play. Yiyo Pola hit a great ball. In the 31st match minute, UD Duran was awarded a freekick, the ball was picked up by Darío Ocharan to maneuver through the defense. A hard shot by Sandro Abar from long distance, 32 minutes into the match, got Camacho Queduro's attention. Through a fast twist with his body, he could stop the ball from going in on his right side. Camacho Queduro showed brilliant goalkeeper skills when he caught the ball after a hard shot from Paco Notes in the 34th minute of the match. If Rafael Loinaz had kept his shot down it would have been a goal in the 47th minute. The ball went over the crossbar and out instead.

Both teams looked relatively alert before the second half when the referee blew his whistle to tell Zorion Peiro to make the kick off. Arias Logroño made a wonderful reflex save on a shot from Zorion Peiro in the 52nd minute of play. The audience was convinced that Paco Notes's extremely hard shot when he got free in front of the goal was going in, but Camacho Queduro was relentless in the 55th minute of the game. Arturo Montaña charged in rather forcefully in the 60th minute of the match, and managed to knock his opponent down. The referee showed Arturo Montaña the yellow card, and asked the players to shake hands before continuing play. Zorion Peiro sent away a hard shot on goal in the 63rd minute, but the ball went just over the crossbar and out. A very good chance. Camacho Queduro showed his good apprehension of the play when he made a fantastic save on a shot from Moreta Rubiano, who was totally free with the ball in the 66th minute. Paco Notes scored 2-0 in the 70th match minute with a shot that went into the goal to the right of Camacho Queduro, who was just a little too slow in reacting to the shot. After 75 played minutes Ayabamba got a freekick which was hit by Yiyo Pola. Rafael Loinaz sent away a hard shot on goal in the 80th minute, but the ball hit the crossbar and went out. A very good chance for a goal. With a couple of smart ball manuevers Paco Notes in the 88th managed to get into a good position. With a left leg Camacho Queduro saved UD Duran from getting behind. 3-0 became the score in the 91st minute when Paco Notes elegantly shot the ball into goal just under the crossbar. Ayabamba's Arias Logroño proved his good apprehension of play when he, in the 97th minute of the match, managed to save Ayabamba from getting a goal against them. The crowd rose to their feet and cheered when the referee blew the final whistle. Ayabamba had won after a very even match.
