Spectators: 35 (Terracing: 27, Seating: 8, VIP seats: 0) Dark clouds were building up when the players entered the field. None of the them looked very eager to play. Noureddine Brahimi started the match with the kick off. Mariano Eguerdi showed his good apprehension of the play when he made a fantastic save on a shot from Noureddine Brahimi, who was totally free with the ball in the 6th minute. After 7 minutes Urundel's defender was forced to head the ball over the line for a corner. It was Fateh Piaf who took care of the corner kick. After taking down the ball on Scotland Neck AFC's corner Fateh Piaf fired away a hard shot, but the defenders efficiently covered the most dangerous angles and Mariano Eguerdi quite easily take care of the ball. Abd al-Aziz Chebal came out of the goal in the 10th minute to try and stop a shot by Urundel's Gabriel Sein. But to his dismay, Gabriel Sein quickly shot the ball in between his legs and into the goal making it 1-0. In the 17th minute, Noureddine Brahimi ran past the defenders and hit a shot which went straight ahead into goal. Mariano Eguerdi was frozen by the shot and now it was 1-1. Through an outstanding action, after 20 minutes, Abd al-Aziz Chebal successfully got his hands on the ball before it slid into the goal at the right post.

Ramiro Ekialde had several of the Scotland Neck AFC's defenders around him in the penalty area when he, after 25 minutes of play, received a pass and succeeded in some way to shoot a shot which went straight ahead into goal.

Mariano Eguerdi made a wonderful reflex save on a shot from Noureddine Brahimi in the 31st minute of play. Fateh Piaf took a chance and fired a shot far from the goal in the 35th minute, but it turned out to be a dangerous situation for Mariano Eguerdi. Urundel's goalkeeper really had to stretch himself to stop the ball from crossing the goal line. Abd al-Asis Kafi sent away a hard shot on goal in the 39th minute, but the ball went just over the crossbar and out. A very good chance. Faouzi Touhami hit a great freekick 43 minutes into the match. Ramiro Ekialde fired away a screaming shot towards the goal in the 44th minute, but the shot went just over the crossbar without Abd al-Aziz Chebal having to interfere. Gabriel Sein could have scored with his fast shot on goal in the 47th minute of the match, but Abd al-Aziz Chebal made a huge save. When the referee blew for the end of the half the home team players were clearly happier, as they went in to the break leading 3-1.

The players of the home team were most fresh-looking when they entered the field to play the second half. Ramiro Ekialde was the one to do the kick off. When Iker Leobardo fell near the penalty area in the 55th minute he thought he would be awarded a free kick. The referee ignored Urundel's protests and gave Iker Leobardo a yellow card for diving instead. After a rather tough play, Urundel's Iker Leobardo got a free kick in the 55th minute. Abd al-Asis Kafi received a nice pass in the box and took a hard shot in the 56th minute. Mariano Eguerdi tensed up and prepared to dive, but the shot went over the goal with him having to interfere. Mariano Eguerdi stood for a superb save when he managed to get hold of Noureddine Brahimi's shot from short distance in the 63rd minute. Abd al-Asis Kafi sent away a hard shot on goal in the 65th minute, but the ball went just over the crossbar and out. A very good chance. After some fancy dribbling in the 67th minute, Abd al-Asis Kafi managed to get in a good position for a shot. Scotland Neck AFC's supporters rose to their feet, but Abd al-Asis Kafi was a bit off balance and shot the ball just wide of the left post. Mariano Eguerdi breathed a sigh of relief and went to take the goal kick. Mariano Eguerdi made a fantastic save in the 71st minute, when Abd al-Asis Kafi sent off a good shot on target. Abd al-Asis Kafi sent away a hard shot on goal in the 73rd minute, but the ball went just over the crossbar and out. A very good chance.

Gabriel Sein took the ball and in the 81 minute, shot a rapid shot to the right of a surprised Abd al-Aziz Chebal.

Mariano Eguerdi took care of the ball after a well-directed shot from Noureddine Brahimi, even though the ball almost passed him on his left side. After 88 played minutes Urundel got a freekick which was hit by Alonzo Ralondo. In the 92nd minute, Roque Fraco hit a crossing free kick to the open man running down the field. An unexpectedly hard shot by Noureddine Brahimi in the 93rd minute of play forced Urundel's goalkeeper Mariano Eguerdi to throw himself to the left, to be able to save the ball. In the 96th minute Noureddine Brahimi shot on, it seemed, an open goal, but Mariano Eguerdi saw the ball coming and threw himself on it before it passed the goal line. If Abd al-Asis Kafi had kept his shot down it would have been a goal in the 97th minute. The ball went over the crossbar and out instead. The referee blew his whistle, and the match came to a close. The players exchanged shirts and headed down the tunnel. The Urundel fans cheered their team off the field, for while Scotland Neck AFC had put up a good fight, they were unable to come out of the game with any points to show for their effort.
