Spectators: 6716 (Terracing: 5000, Seating: 1716, VIP seats: 0) Dark clouds were building up when the players entered the field. None of the them looked very eager to play. Zarbonin Lomas started the match with the kick off. Cascarita's Mario Alanis played magnificently when he managed to stop the ball from hitting the goal, after a sharp shot by Zarbonin Lomas in the 5th minute of play. In the 8th minute, Itzaina Trigo hit a crossing free kick to the open man running down the field. Zavior Ribota took care of the ball after a well-directed shot from Salbatore Trarigo, even though the ball almost passed him on his left side. If Matxin Marti had kept his shot down it would have been a goal in the 12th minute. The ball went over the crossbar and out instead. In the 14th minute Salbatore Trarigo shot on, it seemed, an open goal, but Zavior Ribota saw the ball coming and threw himself on it before it passed the goal line. In the 16th minute of the match Cascarita got a corner. Urama FC's goalie ran out to the linesman to protest the call, but the linesman resolutely pointed his flag at the cornerflag. Perrando Fias ran over to the corner to take the kick. After a rather tough play, Urama FC's Eufrasio Hidalgo got a free kick in the 16th minute. After some fancy dribbling in the 17th minute, Perrando Fias managed to get in a good position for a shot. Cascarita's supporters rose to their feet, but Perrando Fias was a bit off balance and shot the ball just wide of the left post. Zavior Ribota breathed a sigh of relief and went to take the goal kick. When Brais Vidal fell near the penalty area in the 19th minute he thought he would be awarded a free kick. The referee ignored Urama FC's protests and gave Brais Vidal a yellow card for diving instead. A collision led to Urama FC getting a freekick after 19 minutes play. Brais Vidal hit a great ball. Urama FC's Zavior Ribota proved his good apprehension of play when he, in the 24th minute of the match, managed to save Urama FC from getting a goal against them. After 26 minutes, Eliseo Ojesto mouthed his way into the referee's book. The tension between the Urama FC and the Cascarita players grew even worse after the yellow card. After 34 minutes, Eufrasio Hidalgo made it 0-1 with a short kick to the right side. Cascarita's Mario Alanis tried to save the shot but he was too slow in reacting to the shot. Zarbonin Lomas might have been able to make a better finish in the 45th minute when he tried to place a hard shot over Mario Alanis. Instead the ball went over the crossbar and out. Zarbonin Lomas ran back to his position shaking his head. A collision led to Cascarita getting a freekick after 46 minutes play. Angel Toraño hit a great ball. Disappointed in the 0-1 score, the home team went to the dressing room to adjust tactics for the second half.

The wind increased when Salbatore Trarigo made the kick off in the second half. 54 minutes had been played when some careless play by Urama FC's defense caused the ball to cross the line for a corner. Perrando Fias was slow to take the kick. During this time Cascarita's players had a chance to rest. Perrando Fias made a great header on Cascarita's corner, it was just that Urama FC's Zavior Ribota managed to reach the ball for a save. 59 minutes into the match, Salbatore Trarigo had an open shot that he just couldn't miss and scored to the right of Zavior Ribota. Urama FC's manager could be seen yelling to the referee that Salbatore Trarigo was offside, but the referee ignored the protest. 1-1. After some careless play in the Urama FC defense, Matxin Marti kicked a shot that curved into the net to the right of Zavior Ribota. The Urama FC fans voiced their displeasure as they felt that Zavior Ribota should have stopped the shot. 67 minutes into the match, Zarbonin Lomas notched a goal, 2-2, to the right of Cascarita's Mario Alanis. Mario Alanis was clearly disgusted with the effort of the defense and let the defenders know about it. 70 minutes into the match, Cascarita's goalkeeper Mario Alanis had to clear away a ball on his right side after a cunning shot by Eufrasio Hidalgo. Caradaro Horna received a nice pass in the box and took a hard shot in the 74th minute. Zavior Ribota tensed up and prepared to dive, but the shot went over the goal with him having to interfere. Zavior Ribota showed brilliant goalkeeper skills when he caught the ball after a hard shot from Matxin Marti in the 84th minute of the match. Eufrasio Hidalgo recieved an excellent pass in front of the goal in the 87th minute. Unfortunately, he received the ball on his off foot and could only manage a weak shot that went over the goal. Zavior Ribota took care of the ball after a well-directed shot from Matxin Marti, even though the ball almost passed him on his left side. Itzaina Trigo hit a great freekick 95 minutes into the match. Matxin Marti sent away a hard shot on goal in the 97th minute, but the ball went just over the crossbar and out. A very good chance.
