Spectators: 5000 (Terracing: 4000, Seating: 1000, VIP seats: 0) Arano AFC's Benito Urtsin started the match with a crisp pass. The crowd had been anticipating this game for weeks and the excitement in the stadium was easily visible. Robustiano Gaur's late challenge caught a River.P's player on the shin and left him crawling around in pain. The referee blew his whistle and produced the yellow card. Robustiano Gaur helped the player get up and apologised. In the 8th minute, Pedro Corderro hit a crossing free kick to the open man running down the field. If Vinicio Francis had kept his shot down it would have been a goal in the 10th minute. The ball went over the crossbar and out instead. 13 minutes into the game, Benito Urtsin recieved a splendid long ball, split the defenders, and gently placed the ball to the left of Benicio Erasto. Benito Urtsin showed that you don't have to tear a hole in the net to score, 1-0. In the 18th minute Benito Urtsin shot on, it seemed, an open goal, but Benicio Erasto saw the ball coming and threw himself on it before it passed the goal line. Dionisio Havier in the 19thth minute had a little luck and got a chance for a shot in front of the goal. Without hesitation aimed to the right of Benicio Erasto, who managed to lunge to the right direction and made a save. 22 minutes into the match, River.P's Ezequiel Beremundo sent off a blazing shot straight on target, a shot that Benito Manex narrowly saved just below the crossbar. Arano AFC's Benito Manex played magnificently when he managed to stop the ball from hitting the goal, after a sharp shot by Ezequiel Beremundo in the 23rd minute of play. A collision led to Arano AFC getting a freekick after 25 minutes play. Antonio Eskuin hit a great ball. The supporters of Arano AFC booed when River.P was adjudged a doubtful freekick after 31 match minutes in a wonderful position. Silvestre Marcones didn't get a good kick on the ball. Dionisio Havier recieved an excellent pass in front of the goal in the 32nd minute. Unfortunately, he received the ball on his off foot and could only manage a weak shot that went over the goal. River.P's Benicio Erasto proved his good apprehension of play when he, in the 34th minute of the match, managed to save River.P from getting a goal against them. If Benito Urtsin had kept his shot down it would have been a goal in the 35th minute. The ball went over the crossbar instead. In the 39th minute of the match Eloy Cordarryl shot from a long distance. The ball could have gone into the goal to the right of the goalkeeper, but Benicio Erasto showed his good shape when he easily got hold of the ball. No-one was surprised that the home team were leading 1-0 at half-time.

The hometeam waved at the audience when it was time for Ezequiel Beremundo to strike the kick off in the second half. Benicio Erasto made a wonderful reflex save on a shot from Pedro Corderro in the 53rd minute of play. After 55 minutes River.P's defender was forced to head the ball over the line for a corner. It was Eloy Cordarryl who took care of the corner kick. Arano AFC's Eloy Cordarryl was first on the ball when the corner was shot and he dangerously headed the ball towards goal, but Benicio Erasto in the goal jumped up to prevent it from getting in. After 56 minutes, Benito Urtsin made it 2-0 with a short kick to the right side. River.P's Benicio Erasto tried to save the shot but he was too slow in reacting to the shot. In the 60th minute, Generoso Pello hit a crossing free kick to the open man running down the field. In the 62ndth minute of the game Ezequiel Beremundo who was perfectly placed tried to make a shot on goal, but Arano AFC's Benito Manex was lucky and managed to grab hold of the ball. River.P's Filiberto Orlo couldn't find anyone to pass the ball to, so he shot a long shot towards the goal in the 64th minute. The shot went wide which resulted in a goal kick for Arano AFC. When Benito Urtsin came up free with the goalie in the 67th minute, the Arano AFC 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 Benito Urtsin couldn't finish the play. Benicio Erasto showed his good apprehension of the play when he made a fantastic save on a shot from Dionisio Havier, who was totally free with the ball in the 71st minute. Ezequiel Beremundo fired away a screaming shot towards the goal in the 74th minute, but the shot went just over the crossbar without Benito Manex having to interfere. Benito Urtsin struck a weak shot in the 79th minute. Benicio Erasto didn't even have to move as the ball rolled over the line well wide of the goal. A wasted opportunity for Arano AFC. Benicio Erasto came out of the goal in the 89th minute to try and stop a shot by Arano AFC's Benito Urtsin. But to his dismay, Benito Urtsin quickly shot the ball in between his legs and into the goal making it 3-0. Arano AFC's supporters were delighted with their team's performance and swarmed onto the pitch at the end of the match to celebrate the victory with the players.
