Spectators: 205 (Terracing: 154, Seating: 47, VIP seats: 4) Dark clouds were building up when the players entered the field. None of the them looked very eager to play. Cosme Manilan started the match with the kick off. After 6 played minutes C.A.M.P got a freekick which was hit by Isidoro Txindoki. In the 8th minute, Cosme Manilan reached a very good position and smashed the ball with a huge effort into the net, just to the left of Cornelio Garcia. The goal made the score 1-0.

In the 13th minute of the match, Cosme Manilan tried to roll the ball into the goal by the right post, but Cornelio Garcia saw his intentions and got control of the ball before it passed the line. 19 minutes into the match, C.A.M.P's goal looked a bit too open when Pedro Pierres came free, but Cornelio Garcia reached the ball before it rolled over the goal line. 20 minutes into the game, Cayetano Thomas was given a yellow card after he appeared to trip an opposing player. C.A.M.P's manager was livid on the sidelines, but the referee was unmoved and gave Los Hornos the free kick.

Cornelio Garcia showed brilliant goalkeeper skills when he caught the ball after a hard shot from Cosme Manilan in the 33rd minute of the match. In the 35th minute Cosme Manilan shot on, it seemed, an open goal, but Cornelio Garcia saw the ball coming and threw himself on it before it passed the goal line. After some fancy dribbling in the 36th minute, Florentino Millano managed to get in a good position for a shot. Los Hornos's supporters rose to their feet, but Florentino Millano was a bit off balance and shot the ball just wide of the left post. Cornelio Garcia breathed a sigh of relief and went to take the goal kick. Epifanio Laurendi made a wonderful reflex save on a shot from Ildefonso Estebano in the 42nd minute of play. A collision led to Los Hornos getting a freekick after 45 minutes play. Wilfredo Innocenzio hit a great ball. All the noise was coming from the home fans when the whistle went for half-time. The home team had fought hardest to put themselves in a deserved lead.

The players of the away team seemed most concentrated when Erubiel Madaleno stepped up to make the kick off in the second half. Epifanio Laurendi made an important save on a dangerous shot by Ildefonso Estebano in the 56th minute. Los Hornos's Florentino Millano got a good chance for a goal in the 61st minute, but he totally mistimed the shot and it went over the crossbar. Cosme Manilan struck a weak shot in the 66th minute. Cornelio Garcia didn't even have to move as the ball rolled over the line well wide of the goal. A wasted opportunity for Los Hornos. If Pedro Pierres had kept his shot down it would have been a goal in the 67th minute. The ball went over the crossbar and out instead. Epifanio Laurendi showed brilliant goalkeeper skills when he caught the ball after a hard shot from Ildefonso Estebano in the 73rd minute of the match.

C.A.M.P's Ildefonso Estebano got a good chance for a goal in the 92nd minute, but he totally mistimed the shot and it went over the crossbar.

Most of them had left early, disgusted by the way their team had been torn apart. Los Hornos fully deserved thier win.
