Spectators: 39 (Terracing: 30, Seating: 9, VIP seats: 0) The field was rather wet after several days of rain when Pastor Oriche took the kick off in the first half of the match.

ITAFUT 4EVER's manager was livid on the sidelines, but the referee was unmoved and gave Formentera the free kick. After a rather tough play, ITAFUT 4EVER's Sebastião Diniz got a free kick in the 10th minute. In the 11th minute, Alonzo Vincente left the goalkeeper for dead before tapping the ball into the right side of the net.

Arnulfo Seme fired away a screaming shot towards the goal in the 27th minute, but the shot went just over the crossbar without Ernesto Varela having to interfere. Camilo Hernandez lost his temper 30 minutes into the game and shoved another player to the ground. He was immediately shown a red card.

At first the shot seemed to be simple for ITAFUT 4EVER's Ernesto Varela to catch but Alonzo Vincente was lucky. It became 2-2 after the goalkeeper had been careless and dropped the ball into goal. After a very even first half the match was still tied. The players went to their respective dressing rooms to discuss the tactics for the second half.
