Estadio Ávalos
Spectators: 33 (Terracing: 26, Seating: 7, VIP seats: 0) The sun was shining, the grass was green and the audience cheered when Pedro Calixto got the match started through his kick off. After a rather tough play, Álzaga FC's Fabricio Palos got a free kick in the 4th minute. In the 5th minute of the match Edelmiro Claris shot from a long distance. The ball could have gone into the goal to the right of the goalkeeper, but Eloy Urdin showed his good shape when he easily got hold of the ball. Eloy Urdin stood for a superb save when he managed to get hold of Fabio Garikoitz's shot from short distance in the 7th minute. In the 8th minute Pedro Calixto shot on, it seemed, an open goal, but Silvano Medardo saw the ball coming and threw himself on it before it passed the goal line. Tiburcio Benat sent away a hard shot on goal in the 11th minute, but the ball went just over the crossbar and out. A very good chance. After a defensive mix-up in Ávalos's zone, Guillermo Lopes stole the ball and had only the goalie to beat. Silvano Medardo came out of the goal and Guillermo Lopes tried to chip the ball over his head. To his dismay, the ball went over the crossbar and out of play. 14 minutes into the match, Serafino Hodei notched a goal, 0-1, to the right of Ávalos's Silvano Medardo. Silvano Medardo was clearly disgusted with the effort of the defense and let the defenders know about it. Pedro Calixto received a nice pass in the box and took a hard shot in the 21st minute. Silvano Medardo tensed up and prepared to dive, but the shot went over the goal with him having to interfere. Fabio Garikoitz hit a great freekick 24 minutes into the match. After 26 played minutes Álzaga FC got a freekick which was hit by Fabricio Palos. Ávalos's Silvano Medardo played magnificently when he managed to stop the ball from hitting the goal, after a sharp shot by Pedro Calixto in the 30th minute of play. In the 33rd minute, Edelmiro Claris sent off a long shot on goal, but the shot was nowhere near the goal and Álzaga FC's Eloy Urdin didn't even have to move. With his leg Eloy Urdin managed to avoid a goal in the 37thth minute, when Ávalos's Tiburcio Benat fired away a shot with a lot of spin towards his right hand side. With a little luck, Álzaga FC's Eloy Urdin got control of the ball when Tiburcio Benat tried to sneak it across the goal line. After a rather tough play, Álzaga FC's Fabricio Palos got a free kick in the 39th minute. Eloy Urdin showed brilliant goalkeeper skills when he caught the ball after a hard shot from Fabio Garikoitz in the 43rd minute of the match. Eloy Urdin made a fantastic save in the 46th minute, when Tiburcio Benat sent off a good shot on target. Serafino Hodei took the ball and in the 48 minute, shot a rapid shot to the right of a surprised Silvano Medardo. Silvano Medardo dived to the right, and did manage to get a hand on the shot, but it still went into the right corner making it 0-2. Even after changing tactics the home team jogged off the field with a 0-2 deficit. They would have to work harder if they wanted to turn things around in the second half.

Both teams looked relatively alert before the second half when the referee blew his whistle to tell Fabio Garikoitz to make the kick off. Ávalos's defense didn't have a chance, in the 54th minute, when Pedro Calixto scored to the left of an out of position Silvano Medardo, making the score, 0-3. Serafino Hodei charged in rather forcefully in the 57th minute of the match, and managed to knock his opponent down. The referee showed Serafino Hodei the yellow card, and asked the players to shake hands before continuing play. After a rather tough play, Álzaga FC's Serafino Hodei got a free kick in the 57th minute. Guillermo Lopes sent away a hard shot on goal in the 60th minute, but the ball hit the crossbar and went out. A very good chance for a goal. If Pedro Calixto had kept his shot down it would have been a goal in the 62nd minute. The ball went over the crossbar and out instead. Pedro Calixto received a nice pass in the box and took a hard shot in the 64th minute. Silvano Medardo tensed up and prepared to dive, but the shot went over the goal with him having to interfere. Eloy Urdin took care of the ball after a well-directed shot from Fabio Garikoitz, even though the ball almost passed him on his left side. 76 minutes into the game, Saturnino Caton was given a yellow card after he appeared to trip an opposing player. Ávalos's manager was livid on the sidelines, but the referee was unmoved and gave Álzaga FC the free kick. In the 77th minute, Saturnino Caton hit a crossing free kick to the open man running down the field. Serafino Hodei received a nice pass in the box and took a hard shot in the 82nd minute. Silvano Medardo tensed up and prepared to dive, but the shot went over the goal with him having to interfere. 90 minutes into the match, Ávalos's goal looked a bit too open when Pedro Calixto came free, but Silvano Medardo reached the ball before it rolled over the goal line. After 94 played minutes, Ávalos's Ovidio Sugar shot from a long distance, and at first it looked like the ball was going into the goal, but the goalkeeper Eloy Urdin came through and got his fingers on the ball before it flew over the goal line. He then quickly gripped the ball tighter before the forwards in Ávalos reached it.
