Spectators: 7184 (Terracing: 5390, Seating: 1652, VIP seats: 142) It was fairly windy and cold on the field when Serafin Sedeni kicked off to start the match. Leo Maties made a fantastic save in the 3rd minute, when Cornelio Bartoleme sent off a good shot on target. In the 7th minute Ladislao Garci shot on, it seemed, an open goal, but Marco Meder saw the ball coming and threw himself on it before it passed the goal line. After 10 minutes, Eustacio Lehen mouthed his way into the referee's book. The tension between the Canallas RC and the Bragado Football Center players grew even worse after the yellow card. In the 10th minute, Eustacio Lehen hit a crossing free kick to the open man running down the field. After 13 played minutes, Bragado Football Center's Marciano Gar shot from a long distance, and at first it looked like the ball was going into the goal, but the goalkeeper Marco Meder came through and got his fingers on the ball before it flew over the goal line. He then quickly gripped the ball tighter before the forwards in Bragado Football Center reached it. If Ladislao Garci had kept his shot down it would have been a goal in the 18th minute. The ball went over the crossbar instead. When Cornelio Bartoleme came up free with the goalie in the 29th minute, the Canallas RC 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 Cornelio Bartoleme couldn't finish the play. In the 29th minute, Saturnino Oidor hit a crossing free kick to the open man running down the field. Canallas RC's Marco Meder played magnificently when he managed to stop the ball from hitting the goal, after a sharp shot by Ladislao Garci in the 33rd minute of play. Rogelio Hunfredo struck a weak shot in the 37th minute. Marco Meder didn't even have to move as the ball rolled over the line well wide of the goal. A wasted opportunity for Bragado Football Center. Adan Bernad kicked well hit freekick during the 40th minute of the match. Ladislao Garci fired away a screaming shot towards the goal in the 41st minute, but the shot went just over the crossbar without Marco Meder having to interfere. Saturnino Oidor received a nice pass in the box and took a hard shot in the 43rd minute. Marco Meder tensed up and prepared to dive, but the shot went over the goal with him having to interfere.

Both teams looked relatively alert before the second half when the referee blew his whistle to tell Ladislao Garci to make the kick off. Rogelio Hunfredo 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. If Cornelio Bartoleme had kept his shot down it would have been a goal in the 63rd minute. The ball went over the crossbar and out instead. Bragado Football Center's Ladislao Garci got a good chance for a goal in the 65th minute, but he totally mistimed the shot and it went over the crossbar. Marco Meder was in the perfect position, and the defense had done a good job marking him, but Rogelio Hunfredo showcased his skills and made a perfect shot to score 0-1 in the 68 minute of play. After 72 minutes of play, Canallas RC's Cornelio Bartoleme made it 1-1 when he simply outclassed the defender marking him and hit a curling shot into the right side of the net. Leo Maties was left in no man's land by his defense there! 77 minutes into the game, Canallas RC's Cornelio Bartoleme nearly tore a hole in the net with a booming shot. Leo Maties made a valiant effort, but he could not reach the ball in time, 2-1. After a defensive mix-up in Bragado Football Center's zone, Serafin Sedeni stole the ball and had only the goalie to beat. Leo Maties came out of the goal and Serafin Sedeni tried to chip the ball over his head. To his dismay, the ball went over the crossbar and out of play. Ladislao Garci received a nice pass in the box and took a hard shot in the 86th minute. Marco Meder tensed up and prepared to dive, but the shot went over the goal with him having to interfere. The home crowd let out a huge roar when the referee blew for the end of the game. Canallas RC were victorious despite being under pressure from Bragado Football Center for much of the match.
