Spectators: 8390 (Terracing: 6322, Seating: 1900, VIP seats: 168) It was fairly windy and cold on the field when Alfonso Giovannelli kicked off to start the match. 5 minutes into the match, Cacciola's goalkeeper Eugenio Bartolomucci had to clear away a ball on his right side after a cunning shot by Alfonso Giovannelli. Cacciola's Eugenio Bartolomucci played magnificently when he managed to stop the ball from hitting the goal, after a sharp shot by Amerigo Buffone in the 12th minute of play. When Cacciola's Nunez Hernando in the 18th minute got a chance for a shot 18th didn't hesitate and placed the ball to the right of the goalie. A beautiful save bye LATIUM's goalie prevented a goal. After 20 played minutes LATIUM got a freekick which was hit by Cristoforo Caiola. When Hector Ventura came up free with the goalie in the 24th minute, the LATIUM 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 Hector Ventura couldn't finish the play. Alfonso Giovannelli's shot was meant for the net just under the crossbar, but Eugenio Bartolomucci read the situation well and was quickly in position to make a wonderful save in the 26th minute of play. In the 32nd minute, Nunez Hernando left the goalkeeper for dead before tapping the ball into the right side of the net. The Cacciola fans were clearly happy with the effort and the scoreboard reflected the new score: 0-1. In the 35th minute Alfonso Giovannelli shot on, it seemed, an open goal, but Eugenio Bartolomucci saw the ball coming and threw himself on it before it passed the goal line.

Federico Frabetti kicked well hit freekick during the 46th minute of the match. Amerigo Buffone scored 1-1 in the 47th match minute with a shot that went into the goal to the right of Eugenio Bartolomucci, who was just a little too slow in reacting to the shot.

Enrico Brambilla sent away a hard shot on goal in the 55th minute, but the ball went just over the crossbar and out. A very good chance.

The Cacciola fans were clearly happy with the effort and the scoreboard reflected the new score: 1-2.

An unexpectedly hard shot by Federico Frabetti in the 88th minute of play forced LATIUM's goalkeeper Fausto De Bonis to throw himself to the left, to be able to save the ball. Fausto De Bonis showed his good apprehension of the play when he made a fantastic save on a shot from Federico Frabetti, who was totally free with the ball in the 90th minute. If Aurelio Oriali had kept his shot down it would have been a goal in the 93rd minute. The ball went over the crossbar instead. The LATIUM supporters were disappointed that their team didn't take anything from the match, despite matching Cacciola's performance. The match ended with a win for Cacciola.
