Spectators: 6673 (Terracing: 5000, Seating: 1673, VIP seats: 0) Dark clouds were building up when the players entered the field. None of the them looked very eager to play. Cayetano Burni started the match with the kick off. After having played for 3 minutes, Alessandro Caracciolo managed to get in a good position for a shot on goal. Rid3rS's supporters crossed their fingers, but Alessandro Caracciolo was, after a quick turn that froze the defenders, out of balance and shot the ball just to the right of the goal. If Mané Macedo had kept his shot down it would have been a goal in the 5th minute. The ball went over the crossbar and out instead. In the 9th minute Alessandro Caracciolo shot on, it seemed, an open goal, but Filippo Di Giandomenico saw the ball coming and threw himself on it before it passed the goal line. Alvaro Costanzo recieved an excellent pass in front of the goal in the 12th minute. Unfortunately, he received the ball on his off foot and could only manage a weak shot that went over the goal. In the 15th minute, Mané Macedo left the goalkeeper for dead before tapping the ball into the right side of the net.
