Spectators: 7222 (Terracing: 5418, Seating: 1661, VIP seats: 143) The mood of the audience was pleasant when Robustiano Arotza made the kick off which started today's match. Through an outstanding action, after 6 minutes, Eloy Dalmai successfully got his hands on the ball before it slid into the goal at the right post. Felix Alonso received a nice pass in the box and took a hard shot in the 9th minute. Eloy Dalmai tensed up and prepared to dive, but the shot went over the goal with him having to interfere. If Jaime Miliano had kept his shot down it would have been a goal in the 11th minute. The ball went over the crossbar and out instead. After 21 played minutes Ifrán AFC got a freekick which was hit by Jaime Miliano. Ifrán AFC's Gonzalo Lucian got a good chance for a goal in the 28th minute, but he totally mistimed the shot and it went over the crossbar. After having played for 29 minutes, Hugo Santikurtz managed to get in a good position for a shot on goal. Azul FC's supporters crossed their fingers, but Hugo Santikurtz was, after a quick turn that froze the defenders, out of balance and shot the ball just to the right of the goal. Hugo Santikurtz sent away a hard shot on goal in the 37th minute, but the ball went just over the crossbar and out. A very good chance. Ifrán AFC's Eloy Dalmai played magnificently when he managed to stop the ball from hitting the goal, after a sharp shot by Felix Alonso in the 39th minute of play. Ifrán AFC's Eloy Dalmai proved his good apprehension of play when he, in the 41st minute of the match, managed to save Ifrán AFC from getting a goal against them. In the 44th minute, Felix Alonso got an opportunity to score, but he didn't get a solid hit on the ball and ended up kicking it wide of the goal. Robustiano Arotza fired away a screaming shot towards the goal in the 47th minute, but the shot went just over the crossbar without Samuel Bastia having to interfere. The first half was very even, with the score at 0-0 when the whistle went for half-time. The players welcomed the break and quickly retired to the dressing rooms.

Azul FC's attacker deliberately struck the ball against an opponent to win a corner for his team. The corner was taken by Efrain Fidensio in the 53rd minute. Hugo Santikurtz recieved an excellent pass in front of the goal in the 57th minute. Unfortunately, he received the ball on his off foot and could only manage a weak shot that went over the goal. Azul FC's Hugo Santikurtz got a good chance for a goal in the 60th minute, but he totally mistimed the shot and it went over the crossbar. A collision led to Ifrán AFC getting a freekick after 62 minutes play. Jaime Miliano hit a great ball. In the 63rd minute Hugo Santikurtz shot on, it seemed, an open goal, but Eloy Dalmai saw the ball coming and threw himself on it before it passed the goal line. After a rather tough play, Ifrán AFC's Jaime Miliano got a free kick in the 64th minute. Eloy Dalmai showed brilliant goalkeeper skills when he caught the ball after a hard shot from Felix Alonso in the 71st minute of the match. 76 minutes had been played when some careless play by Ifrán AFC's defense caused the ball to cross the line for a corner. Efrain Fidensio was slow to take the kick. During this time Azul FC's players had a chance to rest. After taking down the ball on Azul FC's corner German Gaitan fired away a hard shot, but the defenders efficiently covered the most dangerous angles and Eloy Dalmai quite easily take care of the ball. When German Gaitan fell near the penalty area in the 79th minute he thought he would be awarded a free kick. The referee ignored Azul FC's protests and gave German Gaitan a yellow card for diving instead. In the 79th minute, German Gaitan hit a crossing free kick to the open man running down the field. Rodolfo Austin hit a great freekick 80 minutes into the match. Gaston Geofredo was probably a little too eager to shoot when he, in the 81st played minute, shot the ball from way out. The shot was hard, but the ball flew wide of the goal. Eloy Dalmai stood for a superb save when he managed to get hold of Felix Alonso's shot from short distance in the 83rd minute. 86 minutes into the match, Robustiano Arotza notched a goal, 0-1, to the right of Azul FC's Samuel Bastia. Samuel Bastia was clearly disgusted with the effort of the defense and let the defenders know about it. Eloy Dalmai made a wonderful reflex save on a shot from Felix Alonso in the 90th minute of play. In the 92nd minute, Felix Alonso got an opportunity to score, but he didn't get a solid hit on the ball and ended up kicking it wide of the goal. Robustiano Arotza fired away a screaming shot towards the goal in the 94th minute, but the shot went just over the crossbar without Samuel Bastia having to interfere. The referee blew the final whistle, and the away crowd roared, having watched Ifrán AFC eke out a victory against a very well matched opponent.
