Spectators: 7162 (Terracing: 5481, Seating: 1681, VIP seats: 0) Dark clouds were building up when the players entered the field. None of the them looked very eager to play. Gerardo Sugoi started the match with the kick off. Hector Erroman recieved an excellent pass in front of the goal in the 13th minute. Unfortunately, he received the ball on his off foot and could only manage a weak shot that went over the goal. When Hugo Luar came up free with the goalie in the 21st minute, the Estancieros Borrachos FC 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 Hugo Luar couldn't finish the play. 27 minutes into the match, SOHCAHTOA's goal looked a bit too open when Fricson Cecilia came free, but Melchor Marin reached the ball before it rolled over the goal line. Melchor Marin made an important save on a dangerous shot by Gerardo Sugoi in the 28th minute. Ruben Frichoso's late challenge caught a SOHCAHTOA's player on the shin and left him crawling around in pain. The referee blew his whistle and produced the yellow card.

The audience thought a goal was coming when Gerardo Sugoi got free with Melchor Marin in the 33rd minute, but the goalkeeper managed to catch the ball with a huge effort. With his leg Melchor Marin managed to avoid a goal in the 34thth minute, when Estancieros Borrachos FC's Gerardo Sugoi fired away a shot with a lot of spin towards his right hand side. After some fancy dribbling in the 36th minute, Fricson Cecilia managed to get in a good position for a shot. Estancieros Borrachos FC's supporters rose to their feet, but Fricson Cecilia was a bit off balance and shot the ball just wide of the left post. Melchor Marin breathed a sigh of relief and went to take the goal kick. Fricson Cecilia received a nice pass, split the defenders, and ran untouched towards the goal. Melchor Marin came out and tried to block the shot, but Fricson Cecilia slotted it home off the left post making it 1-0 in the 40th minute. After 44 minutes of play, Estancieros Borrachos FC's Gerardo Sugoi made it 2-0 when he simply outclassed the defender marking him and hit a curling shot into the right side of the net. Melchor Marin was left in no man's land by his defense there! Fricson Cecilia fired away a screaming shot towards the goal in the 47th minute, but the shot went just over the crossbar without Melchor Marin having to interfere. No-one was surprised that the home team were leading 2-0 at half-time.

The hometeam waved at the audience when it was time for Marcos Pasqual to strike the kick off in the second half. If Fricson Cecilia had kept his shot down it would have been a goal in the 60th minute. The ball went over the crossbar instead. In the 65th minute Gerardo Sugoi shot on, it seemed, an open goal, but Melchor Marin saw the ball coming and threw himself on it before it passed the goal line. 4-0 became the score in the 67th minute when Gerardo Sugoi elegantly shot the ball into goal just under the crossbar. When the match had gone on for 78 minutes, Gerardo Sugoi put it in 5-0 from a short distance just to the right of Melchor Marin.

SOHCAHTOA's manager could be seen yelling to the referee that Gerardo Sugoi was offside, but the referee ignored the protest. 6-0. An unexpectedly hard shot by Gerardo Sugoi in the 95th minute of play forced SOHCAHTOA's goalkeeper Melchor Marin to throw himself to the left, to be able to save the ball. It was no surprise that this one had ended in a win for the home team. Estancieros Borrachos FC had played much better football throughout.
