Spectators: 7506 (Terracing: 5630, Seating: 1726, VIP seats: 150) It was fairly windy and cold on the field when Giotis Diamantopoulos kicked off to start the match. Sakis Kritikos kicked well hit freekick during the 2nd minute of the match. If Cebo Adán had kept his shot down it would have been a goal in the 3rd minute. The ball went over the crossbar instead. Gerald Deulofeu struck a weak shot in the 3rd minute. Charilaos Iakovatos didn't even have to move as the ball rolled over the line well wide of the goal. A wasted opportunity for Villawalter City. An unexpectedly hard shot by Magdaleno Alcantara in the 5th minute of play forced Seahawks V55's goalkeeper Charilaos Iakovatos to throw himself to the left, to be able to save the ball. 7 minutes into the game, Gerald Deulofeu cracked a shot to the right of the goalkeeper, 0-1. Charilaos Iakovatos was not in position, and could only watch the ball fly in. In the 10th minute, Gerald Deulofeu made a precise shot to the right of Charilaos Iakovatos. Seahawks V55's defense was at fault, and the scoreboard reflected the new score, 0-2. Lalo Jaen made an important save on a dangerous shot by Sakis Kritikos in the 15th minute.

Valentín Maroto hit a great freekick 18 minutes into the match. Lalo Jaen took care of the ball after a well-directed shot from Giotis Diamantopoulos, even though the ball almost passed him on his left side. In the 23rd minute, Kostas Miaoulis hit a crossing free kick to the open man running down the field. Gerald Deulofeu scored 1-3 in the 26th match minute with a shot that went into the goal to the right of Charilaos Iakovatos, who was just a little too slow in reacting to the shot. After 30 minutes of play, Villawalter City's Magdaleno Alcantara made it 1-4 when he simply outclassed the defender marking him and hit a curling shot into the right side of the net. Charilaos Iakovatos was left in no man's land by his defense there! Alirio Puyol lost his temper 37 minutes into the game and shoved another player to the ground. He was immediately shown a red card. In the 39th of the match, Kostas Miaoulis tried to place the ball in the upper right corner, but Lalo Jaen got in the way and made a wonderful save. Lalo Jaen took care of the ball after a well-directed shot from Giotis Diamantopoulos, even though the ball almost passed him on his left side. Luck had favoured the away team in the first, and they walked off with a 2-4 lead.

The players of the away team seemed most concentrated when Andoitz Mendez stepped up to make the kick off in the second half. 51 minutes into the game, Iordanis Christodoulakis was given a yellow card after he appeared to trip an opposing player. Seahawks V55's manager was livid on the sidelines, but the referee was unmoved and gave Villawalter City the free kick. After a rather tough play, Seahawks V55's Iordanis Christodoulakis got a free kick in the 51st minute. When Gerald Deulofeu came up free with the goalie in the 52nd minute, the Villawalter City 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 Gerald Deulofeu couldn't finish the play. In the 55th minute, Magdaleno Alcantara 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. With a little luck, Seahawks V55's Charilaos Iakovatos got control of the ball when Cebo Adán tried to sneak it across the goal line. After some careless play in the Seahawks V55 defense, Andoitz Mendez kicked a shot that curved into the net to the right of Charilaos Iakovatos. The Seahawks V55 fans voiced their displeasure as they felt that Charilaos Iakovatos should have stopped the shot. Lalo Jaen made a wonderful reflex save on a shot from Giotis Diamantopoulos in the 78th minute of play. Charilaos Iakovatos was out of position in the 81 minute of play, and Magdaleno Alcantara capitalized on the mistake with a soft shot into the goal. Magdaleno Alcantara really showed his touch with that goal: 2-6. Cebo Adán recieved an excellent pass in front of the goal in the 90th minute. Unfortunately, he received the ball on his off foot and could only manage a weak shot that went over the goal.
