Spectators: 152 (Terracing: 114, Seating: 35, VIP seats: 3) Jacinto Abaurre started the match with the kick off in front of an excited audience. Nereo Florinio fired away a screaming shot towards the goal in the 7th minute, but the shot went just over the crossbar without Ubelteso Sigüenza having to interfere. After some fancy dribbling in the 11th minute, Jacinto Abaurre managed to get in a good position for a shot. GiudeCCa's supporters rose to their feet, but Jacinto Abaurre was a bit off balance and shot the ball just wide of the left post. Graig Weston breathed a sigh of relief and went to take the goal kick. 0-1 became the score in the 15th minute when Jacinto Abaurre elegantly shot the ball into goal just under the crossbar. If Sergio Sorzano had kept his shot down it would have been a goal in the 18th minute. The ball went over the crossbar and out instead. After a defensive mix-up in Slower Lower FC's zone, Jacinto Abaurre stole the ball and had only the goalie to beat. Graig Weston came out of the goal and Jacinto Abaurre tried to chip the ball over his head. To his dismay, the ball went over the crossbar and out of play. When the match had gone on for 21 minutes, Jacinto Abaurre put it in 0-2 from a short distance just to the right of Graig Weston. Jacinto Abaurre scored 0-3 in the 35th match minute with a shot that went into the goal to the right of Graig Weston, who was just a little too slow in reacting to the shot. The supporters of Slower Lower FC booed when GiudeCCa was adjudged a doubtful freekick after 38 match minutes in a wonderful position. Romo Breton didn't get a good kick on the ball. Ubelteso Sigüenza took care of the ball after a well-directed shot from Nereo Florinio, even though the ball almost passed him on his left side. Sergio Sorzano received a nice pass in the box and took a hard shot in the 43rd minute. Graig Weston tensed up and prepared to dive, but the shot went over the goal with him having to interfere. In the 45th minute, Jacinto Abaurre made a precise shot to the right of Graig Weston. Slower Lower FC's defense was at fault, and the scoreboard reflected the new score, 0-4. Even after changing tactics the home team jogged off the field with a 0-4 deficit. They would have to work harder if they wanted to turn things around in the second half.

Jacinto Abaurre received a nice pass, split the defenders, and ran untouched towards the goal. Graig Weston came out and tried to block the shot, but Jacinto Abaurre slotted it home off the left post making it 1-5 in the 58th minute. In the 61st minute the ball was on its way in behind GiudeCCa's goalkeeper Ubelteso Sigüenza, but with the help of a sacrificing defense, he could catch the ball at the crossbar. Lucio Villamor charged in rather forcefully in the 66th minute of the match, and managed to knock his opponent down. The referee showed Lucio Villamor the yellow card, and asked the players to shake hands before continuing play. Lucio Villamor hit a great freekick 66 minutes into the match. Ubelteso Sigüenza stood for a superb save when he managed to get hold of Jeramy Carter's shot from short distance in the 74th minute. If Sergio Sorzano had kept his shot down it would have been a goal in the 88th minute. The ball went over the crossbar and out instead. Jeramy Carter sent away a hard shot on goal in the 96th minute, but the ball went just over the crossbar and out. A very good chance. The referee blew the final whistle, and the away crowd roared, having watched GiudeCCa eke out a victory against a very well matched opponent.
