Aureliano Obeko showed his good apprehension of the play when he made a fantastic save on a shot from Primitivo Eguen, who was totally free with the ball in the 47th minute. After the first half Plebeyos were leading 0-3. They had played with great self confidence throughout the first half and fully deserved their lead.

The players of the away team seemed most concentrated when Gaspar Sabin stepped up to make the kick off in the second half. Plebeyos's Carlos Manuel Goyeneche played magnificently when he managed to stop the ball from hitting the goal, after a sharp shot by Leonardo Poz in the 51st minute of play. 52 minutes into the match, Leones FC's goalkeeper Aureliano Obeko had to clear away a ball on his right side after a cunning shot by Daniel Nerio.

Daniel Nerio could have scored with his fast shot on goal in the 67th minute of the match, but Aureliano Obeko made a huge save. Aureliano Obeko was a little too slow when Rogelio Guerau got a fine hit on the ball which went right into the goal in the 73rd minute. The score was now 0-4. Plebeyos's Moises Socorro was substituted for Serafino Justin. Aureliano Obeko made a fantastic save in the 77th minute, when Alfaro Moreno sent off a good shot on target. 79 minutes into the game, Hermengildo Suero was given a yellow card after he appeared to trip an opposing player. Plebeyos's manager was livid on the sidelines, but the referee was unmoved and gave Leones FC the free kick.

Jaime Mundo helped the player get up and apologised. Jaime Mundo hit a great freekick 87 minutes into the match. With a little luck, Leones FC's Aureliano Obeko got control of the ball when Alfaro Moreno tried to sneak it across the goal line.
