Spectators: 153 (Terracing: 115, Seating: 35, VIP seats: 3) It was fairly windy and cold on the field when Aquiles Meo kicked off to start the match. Guillermo Iago sent away a hard shot on goal in the 9th minute, but the ball went just over the crossbar and out. A very good chance. After a rather tough play, La Scaloneta's Bernardo Lalla got a free kick in the 14th minute. After having played for 15 minutes, Anama Ferreira managed to get in a good position for a shot on goal. Vipos FC's supporters crossed their fingers, but Anama Ferreira 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 18th minute of the match, Lion Messi got a very nice opportunity to score, but Bernabe Herensuge was well-placed and pushed the ball away from the goal at the left post.

Lion Messi scored 1-0 in the 28th match minute with a shot that went into the goal to the right of Bernabe Herensuge, who was just a little too slow in reacting to the shot.

In the 34th match minute, La Scaloneta was awarded a freekick, the ball was picked up by Bernardo Lalla to maneuver through the defense. In the 44th minute, La Scaloneta's Guillermo Iago ran free of his marker and smoothly shot the ball into the goal behind Bernabe Herensuge. Bernabe Herensuge yelled at his defense, as they had left him out to dry. 3-0. After some careless play in the Vipos FC defense, Lion Messi kicked a shot that curved into the net to the right of Bernabe Herensuge. The Vipos FC fans voiced their displeasure as they felt that Bernabe Herensuge should have stopped the shot.

The players of the away team seemed most concentrated when Lion Messi stepped up to make the kick off in the second half. Bernabe Herensuge made a wonderful reflex save on a shot from Ángel-Fabián Di María in the 53rd minute of play. In the 59th minute Ángel-Fabián Di María shot on, it seemed, an open goal, but Bernabe Herensuge saw the ball coming and threw himself on it before it passed the goal line. After a rather tough play, Vipos FC's Donato Fernendo got a free kick in the 60th minute. 64 minutes into the match, Vipos FC's goal looked a bit too open when Guillermo Iago came free, but Bernabe Herensuge reached the ball before it rolled over the goal line. Vipos FC were awarded a corner in the 67th minute after La Scaloneta's defender lost control of the ball, allowing it to roll out over the line. Anama Ferreira took the corner. The corner ended in Anama Ferreira almost managing to get the ball behind the net, but La Scaloneta's Freddy Sarracino did a great save. If Guillermo Iago had kept his shot down it would have been a goal in the 74th minute. The ball went over the crossbar and out instead. 78 minutes into the game, La Scaloneta's Lion Messi nearly tore a hole in the net with a booming shot. Bernabe Herensuge made a valiant effort, but he could not reach the ball in time, 6-0. Bernabe Herensuge made a wonderful reflex save on a shot from Guillermo Iago in the 81st minute of play. Lion Messi scored 7-0 in the 83rd match minute with a shot that went into the goal to the right of Bernabe Herensuge, who was just a little too slow in reacting to the shot. Vipos FC's Bernabe Herensuge played magnificently when he managed to stop the ball from hitting the goal, after a sharp shot by Lion Messi in the 87th minute of play. The supporters of Vipos FC booed when La Scaloneta was adjudged a doubtful freekick after 88 match minutes in a wonderful position. Ángel-Fabián Di María didn't get a good kick on the ball. In the 90th minute, Lion Messi ran past the defenders and hit a shot which went straight ahead into goal. Bernabe Herensuge was frozen by the shot and now it was 8-0. Bernabe Herensuge took care of the ball after a well-directed shot from Guillermo Iago, even though the ball almost passed him on his left side. It was no surprise that this one had ended in a win for the home team. La Scaloneta had played much better football throughout.
