Spectators: 33 (Terracing: 26, Seating: 7, VIP seats: 0) It was fairly windy and cold on the field when Alvaro Orlandi kicked off to start the match. Alvaro Orlandi received a nice pass in the box and took a hard shot in the 4th minute. Filippo Cavallucci tensed up and prepared to dive, but the shot went over the goal with him having to interfere. An unexpectedly hard shot by Anfilogino Bravo in the 9th minute of play forced Gualdo FC's goalkeeper Alvise Ciarrocchi to throw himself to the left, to be able to save the ball. Alvise Ciarrocchi made a wonderful reflex save on a shot from Anfilogino Bravo in the 19th minute of play. After a rather tough play, Scaltenigo FC's Cosimo Zuccarini got a free kick in the 30th minute. Scaltenigo FC's Alfonso Romanese quite brazenly broke a throw-in by Arrigo Piattelli, made in the 32nd minute of the game. The throw-in from Arrigo Piattelli in the 34th minute of the game was unfortunally taken care of by Scaltenigo FC's Arturo Mastronardi. Alvise Ciarrocchi made a wonderful reflex save on a shot from Anfilogino Bravo in the 34th minute of play. If Armando Bergomi had kept his shot down it would have been a goal in the 38th minute. The ball went over the crossbar and out instead. Anfilogino Bravo scored 0-1 in the 39th match minute with a shot that went into the goal to the right of Alvise Ciarrocchi, who was just a little too slow in reacting to the shot. In the 45th minute of the game Cosimo Zuccarini made a throw-in which Bianco Centofanti played forward. After some fancy dribbling in the 47th minute, Amedeo Muzi managed to get in a good position for a shot. Scaltenigo FC's supporters rose to their feet, but Amedeo Muzi was a bit off balance and shot the ball just wide of the left post. Alvise Ciarrocchi breathed a sigh of relief and went to take the goal kick. Even after changing tactics the home team jogged off the field with a 0-1 deficit. They would have to work harder if they wanted to turn things around in the second half.

The wind increased when Anfilogino Bravo made the kick off in the second half. In the 52nd minute Armando Bergomi shot on, it seemed, an open goal, but Alvise Ciarrocchi saw the ball coming and threw himself on it before it passed the goal line. Amedeo Muzi recieved an excellent pass in front of the goal in the 58th minute. Unfortunately, he received the ball on his off foot and could only manage a weak shot that went over the goal. Armando Bergomi sent away a hard shot on goal in the 65th minute, but the ball hit the crossbar and went out. A very good chance for a goal. In the 70th minute of the match, Amedeo Muzi tried to roll the ball into the goal by the right post, but Alvise Ciarrocchi saw his intentions and got control of the ball before it passed the line. After 74 minutes of play, Gualdo FC's Alvaro Orlandi made it 1-1 when he simply outclassed the defender marking him and hit a curling shot into the right side of the net. Filippo Cavallucci was left in no man's land by his defense there! An unexpectedly hard shot by Anfilogino Bravo in the 82nd minute of play forced Gualdo FC's goalkeeper Alvise Ciarrocchi to throw himself to the left, to be able to save the ball. With a couple of smart ball manuevers Anfilogino Bravo in the 83rd managed to get into a good position. With a left leg Alvise Ciarrocchi saved Gualdo FC from getting behind. Armando Bergomi fired away a screaming shot towards the goal in the 88th minute, but the shot went just over the crossbar without Alvise Ciarrocchi having to interfere. Scaltenigo FC's players went to the stands to thank the travelling support. The fan's backing had helped spurr the team on to a fine performance that won them the match.
