The crowd had been anticipating this game for weeks and the excitement in the stadium was easily visible. If Gavino Chabier had kept his shot down it would have been a goal in the 6th minute.

Igor Weather could have scored with his fast shot on goal in the 19th minute of the match, but Inocencio Rameriz made a huge save.

The players of the home team were most fresh-looking when they entered the field to play the second half. Serafin Phelipe was the one to do the kick off. After a rather tough play, Twisters F.C.'s Honorio Nabar got a free kick in the 52nd minute. When Serafin Phelipe came up free with the goalie in the 53rd minute, the Dorila 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 Serafin Phelipe couldn't finish the play. After a defensive mix-up in Dorila FC's zone, Gavino Chabier stole the ball and had only the goalie to beat. Arnoldo Nafarroa came out of the goal and Gavino Chabier tried to chip the ball over his head. To his dismay, the ball went over the crossbar and out of play. Dorila FC's Arnoldo Nafarroa proved his good apprehension of play when he, in the 57th minute of the match, managed to save Dorila FC from getting a goal against them. After some careless play in the Dorila FC defense, Juan Tanio kicked a shot that curved into the net to the right of Arnoldo Nafarroa. The Dorila FC fans voiced their displeasure as they felt that Arnoldo Nafarroa should have stopped the shot. Samuel Transito sent away a hard shot on goal in the 72nd minute, but the ball went just over the crossbar and out. A very good chance. 79 minutes into the match, Dorila FC's goal looked a bit too open when Samuel Transito came free, but Arnoldo Nafarroa reached the ball before it rolled over the goal line.
