Spectators: 7713 (Terracing: 5786, Seating: 1774, VIP seats: 153) The field was rather wet after several days of rain when Airas Tobias took the kick off in the first half of the match. Walter Silvera's shot straight on target was not completely harmless. The ball had pretty good speed, but Odon Cardeñosa firmly grabbed it by the left post. An unexpectedly hard shot by Unai Antunez in the 5th minute of play forced Crottos Crotters F.C.'s goalkeeper Eustaquio Haitz to throw himself to the left, to be able to save the ball. If Airas Tobias had kept his shot down it would have been a goal in the 10th minute. The ball went over the crossbar and out instead. In the 13th minute, Rodrigo Oier reached a very good position and smashed the ball with a huge effort into the net, just to the left of Odon Cardeñosa. The goal made the score 1-0. 16 minutes into the match, Bada Bing Club's goalkeeper Odon Cardeñosa had to clear away a ball on his right side after a cunning shot by Rodrigo Oier. Eustaquio Haitz took care of the ball after a well-directed shot from Airas Tobias, even though the ball almost passed him on his left side. In the 27th minute Unai Antunez shot on, it seemed, an open goal, but Eustaquio Haitz saw the ball coming and threw himself on it before it passed the goal line. When Alonso Benítez came up free with the goalie in the 30th minute, the Bada Bing Club 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 Alonso Benítez couldn't finish the play. 31 minutes into the match, Crottos Crotters F.C.'s goal looked a bit too open when Unai Antunez came free, but Eustaquio Haitz reached the ball before it rolled over the goal line. 36 minutes into the match, Rodrigo Oier dribbled the ball past the defender and swiftly kicked the ball to the left of Odon Cardeñosa, 2-0. Eulalio Lizer received a nice pass in the box and took a hard shot in the 41st minute. Odon Cardeñosa tensed up and prepared to dive, but the shot went over the goal with him having to interfere. Odon Cardeñosa showed brilliant goalkeeper skills when he caught the ball after a hard shot from Daniel Bertoni in the 43rd minute of the match. After some fancy dribbling in the 45th minute, Unai Antunez managed to get in a good position for a shot. Bada Bing Club's supporters rose to their feet, but Unai Antunez was a bit off balance and shot the ball just wide of the left post. Eustaquio Haitz breathed a sigh of relief and went to take the goal kick. The home fans were very happy to see their team leading 2-0 at half-time.

The wind increased when Daniel Bertoni made the kick off in the second half. Odon Cardeñosa made a wonderful reflex save on a shot from Rodrigo Oier in the 53rd minute of play. Bada Bing Club's Airas Tobias got a good chance for a goal in the 55th minute, but he totally mistimed the shot and it went over the crossbar. Bada Bing Club's Raúl Flores was substituted for Alonso Benítez. Walter Silvera scored 3-0 in the 59th match minute with a shot that went into the goal to the right of Odon Cardeñosa, who was just a little too slow in reacting to the shot. Fernan Ihintza hit a great freekick 71 minutes into the match. Crottos Crotters F.C. made a substitution. Isaac Alvarez replaced Zé Augusto Matos. Fernan Ihintza kicked well hit freekick during the 73rd minute of the match.

The ball went over the crossbar and out instead. Odon Cardeñosa made a wonderful reflex save on a shot from Hilario Turi in the 82nd minute of play. After having played for 88 minutes, Lancelot Soprano managed to get in a good position for a shot on goal. Bada Bing Club's supporters crossed their fingers, but Lancelot Soprano was, after a quick turn that froze the defenders, out of balance and shot the ball just to the right of the goal. In the 92nd minute, Eulalio Lizer made a precise shot to the right of Odon Cardeñosa. Bada Bing Club's defense was at fault, and the scoreboard reflected the new score, 4-0. For all the effort they put into the match, the Bada Bing Club players left disappointed. They had fought hard, but couldn't break down the home team's defense. The match ended in a win for Crottos Crotters F.C..
