Spectators: 7211 (Terracing: 5409, Seating: 1659, VIP seats: 143) It was fairly windy and cold on the field when Maximo Nikola kicked off to start the match. After 3 played minutes, Candelarias AFC's Prospero Pirmin shot from a long distance, and at first it looked like the ball was going into the goal, but the goalkeeper Jacinto Bastian 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 Candelarias AFC reached it. If Rafael Afonso had kept his shot down it would have been a goal in the 6th minute. The ball went over the crossbar and out instead. Sebastian Musko's shot from long distance in the 7th minute was not bad at all, but BOKE JUNIOR's Jacinto Bastian knew what was happening and pushed the ball into his arms just before it hit the right post. Bernabe Mateo showed brilliant goalkeeper skills when he caught the ball after a hard shot from Maximo Nikola in the 15th minute of the match. Maximo Nikola fired away a screaming shot towards the goal in the 17th minute, but the shot went just over the crossbar without Bernabe Mateo having to interfere. Ramon Ted struck a weak shot in the 18th minute. Bernabe Mateo didn't even have to move as the ball rolled over the line well wide of the goal. A wasted opportunity for BOKE JUNIOR. If Mariano Petrigai had kept his shot down it would have been a goal in the 21st minute. The ball went over the crossbar and out instead. In the 28th minute Ramon Ted shot on, it seemed, an open goal, but Bernabe Mateo saw the ball coming and threw himself on it before it passed the goal line. Ramon Ted fired away a screaming shot towards the goal in the 30th minute, but the shot went just over the crossbar without Bernabe Mateo having to interfere. In the 36th minute, BOKE JUNIOR's goalie took a deep sigh of relief after Mariano Petrigai fired away a hard shot that went just outside the left post. Mariano Petrigai sent away a hard shot on goal in the 40th minute, but the ball went just over the crossbar and out. A very good chance. Ramon Ted sent away a hard shot on goal in the 43rd minute, but the ball went just over the crossbar and out. A very good chance. Ramon Ted struck a weak shot in the 45th minute. Bernabe Mateo didn't even have to move as the ball rolled over the line well wide of the goal. A wasted opportunity for BOKE JUNIOR. The score stood at 0-0 when the half time whistle went. Both sets of players seemed reasonably pleased with how the match was going.

Ramon Ted fired away a screaming shot towards the goal in the 53rd minute, but the shot went just over the crossbar without Bernabe Mateo having to interfere. The audience was convinced that Maximo Nikola's extremely hard shot when he got free in front of the goal was going in, but Bernabe Mateo was relentless in the 55th minute of the game. Bernabe Mateo made a wonderful reflex save on a shot from Maximo Nikola in the 60th minute of play. When Prospero Pirmin fell near the penalty area in the 65th minute he thought he would be awarded a free kick.
