Stadio BoreValtesino
Spectators: 174 (Terracing: 131, Seating: 40, VIP seats: 3)
The sun was shining, the grass was green and the audience cheered when Attilio Mauro got the match started through his kick off. Ferruccio Alfani didn't have a chance when a screaming shot from Clayton Vella went, in the 3rd minute, to the upper right corner, 0-1 was the resulting score. Carlo Markham sent away a hard shot on goal in the 5th minute, but the ball went just over the crossbar and out. A very good chance. Beppe Cauli charged in rather forcefully in the 6th minute of the match, and managed to knock his opponent down. The referee showed Beppe Cauli the yellow card, and asked the players to shake hands before continuing play. Dejan Cumbo took care of the ball after a well-directed shot from Attilio Mauro, even though the ball almost passed him on his left side. Clayton Vella's shot was meant for the net just under the crossbar, but Ferruccio Alfani read the situation well and was quickly in position to make a wonderful save in the 13th minute of play. When the match had gone on for 14 minutes, Clayton Vella put it in 0-2 from a short distance just to the right of Ferruccio Alfani.

In the 41st minute William Manicolo shot on, it seemed, an open goal, but Ferruccio Alfani saw the ball coming and threw himself on it before it passed the goal line. If Elia Buccella had kept his shot down it would have been a goal in the 45th minute. The ball went over the crossbar and out instead. After 47 minutes of play, BRAL VAL's Ercole Brini made it 1-2 when he simply outclassed the defender marking him and hit a curling shot into the right side of the net. Dejan Cumbo was left in no man's land by his defense there! After the first half Seraċini Għawdxin were leading 1-2. They had played with great self confidence throughout the first half and fully deserved their lead.

The players of the home team were most fresh-looking when they entered the field to play the second half. Clayton Vella was the one to do the kick off. With a little luck, BRAL VAL's Ferruccio Alfani got control of the ball when Clayton Vella tried to sneak it across the goal line. 55 minutes into the game, Edward Gruppetta was given a yellow card after he appeared to trip an opposing player.

Dejan Cumbo showed his good apprehension of the play when he made a fantastic save on a shot from Elia Buccella, who was totally free with the ball in the 73rd minute. 73 minutes into the game, Ercole Brini was given a yellow card after he appeared to trip an opposing player. BRAL VAL's manager was livid on the sidelines, but the referee was unmoved and gave Seraċini Għawdxin the free kick.

They errupted in celebration when the whistle blew, knowing Seraċini Għawdxin would go home with victory in their luggage after a match that easily could have ended differently.
