Spectators: 36 (Terracing: 28, Seating: 8, VIP seats: 0) The mood of the audience was pleasant when Eduardo Honesto made the kick off which started today's match. Amador Seber hit a great freekick 2 minutes into the match. When Joel Diagur fell near the penalty area in the 7th minute he thought he would be awarded a free kick. The referee ignored La Guardia Imperial's protests and gave Joel Diagur a yellow card for diving instead. La Guardia Imperial's Amador Seber got a good chance for a goal in the 9th minute, but he totally mistimed the shot and it went over the crossbar. In the 13th minute Iustinian Drăghincescu shot on, it seemed, an open goal, but Ruben Esdras saw the ball coming and threw himself on it before it passed the goal line. Maximiliano Lon lost his temper 14 minutes into the game and shoved another player to the ground. He was immediately shown a red card. The supporters of FC GURZUN booed when La Guardia Imperial was adjudged a doubtful freekick after 15 match minutes in a wonderful position. Maximiliano Lon didn't get a good kick on the ball. When Iustinian Drăghincescu came up free with the goalie in the 15th minute, the FC GURZUN 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 Iustinian Drăghincescu couldn't finish the play. In the 18th minute, Gică Oros hit a crossing free kick to the open man running down the field. Cătălin Dăianu made a wonderful reflex save on a shot from Amador Seber in the 21st minute of play. With a little luck, FC GURZUN's Cătălin Dăianu got control of the ball when Amador Seber tried to sneak it across the goal line. Amador Seber sent away a hard shot on goal in the 30th minute, but the ball went just over the crossbar and out. A very good chance. Joel Diagur could have scored with his fast shot on goal in the 32nd minute of the match, but Cătălin Dăianu made a huge save. Joel Diagur spun around in front of the goal 38 minutes in the game, and got away a shot that, to his disappointment, went to the left of FC GURZUN's goal. After 42 minutes, Luca Horhoianu mouthed his way into the referee's book. The tension between the FC GURZUN and the La Guardia Imperial players grew even worse after the yellow card. After 46 played minutes La Guardia Imperial got a freekick which was hit by Joel Diagur. If Cristinel Trapcea had kept his shot down it would have been a goal in the 48th minute. The ball went over the crossbar and out instead. The first half was very even, with the score at 0-0 when the whistle went for half-time. The players welcomed the break and quickly retired to the dressing rooms.

Ruben Esdras made a fantastic save in the 58th minute, when Iustinian Drăghincescu sent off a good shot on target. La Guardia Imperial's Ruben Esdras proved his good apprehension of play when he, in the 60th minute of the match, managed to save La Guardia Imperial from getting a goal against them. In the 61st minute Joel Diagur shot on, it seemed, an open goal, but Cătălin Dăianu saw the ball coming and threw himself on it before it passed the goal line. Dalmacio Pagomari kicked well hit freekick during the 63rd minute of the match. Cătălin Dăianu showed brilliant goalkeeper skills when he caught the ball after a hard shot from Amador Seber in the 67th minute of the match. Cătălin Dăianu didn't have a chance when a screaming shot from Joel Diagur went, in the 69th minute, to the upper right corner, 1-0 was the resulting score. Cătălin Dăianu came out of the goal in the 73rd minute to try and stop a shot by La Guardia Imperial's Amador Seber. But to his dismay, Amador Seber quickly shot the ball in between his legs and into the goal making it 2-0. If Amador Seber had kept his shot down it would have been a goal in the 76th minute. The ball went over the crossbar instead. After a defensive mix-up in FC GURZUN's zone, Amador Seber stole the ball and had only the goalie to beat. Cătălin Dăianu came out of the goal and Amador Seber tried to chip the ball over his head. To his dismay, the ball went over the crossbar and out of play. After having played for 82 minutes, Amador Seber managed to get in a good position for a shot on goal. La Guardia Imperial's supporters crossed their fingers, but Amador Seber was, after a quick turn that froze the defenders, out of balance and shot the ball just to the right of the goal. Joel Diagur received a nice pass in the box and took a hard shot in the 95th minute. Cătălin Dăianu tensed up and prepared to dive, but the shot went over the goal with him having to interfere. When the referee ended the match the La Guardia Imperial players were able to celebrate. They had won a fair victory and recieved the ovations of their fans.
