27118 spectators arrived at XAVI'S ESTADI, where weather conditions were pretty good for football. Mikey Lee was the appointed referee with assistance provided by Klaus-Philipp Klüten and Tomás Senra. CAT-ALANS started off with a 3-5-2 lineup. The following players took the field: Dos Santos - Burela, Maxim, Badstöber - Tuulikangas, Vestby, Gómez, Ragnlind, Massarenti - Marčev, Kraemer.

A 5-3-2 alignment was the formation of choice for martiña. The following players had been chosen: Murauer - Crehuet, Hoyos Conde, Bats, Velázquez, Gheorghe - Mussalo, Brok, Behrenreiter-Prziemski Scharnitz - Raglianti, Ferrán López.

martiña tried to focus their attacks down the middle. The home crowd breathed a collective sigh of relief when F. Ferrán López was unable to put the ball in the net after his show of skill down the left 35 minutes into the match. He was seen beating the pitch in frustration at missing such a good chance to give his team the lead! A badly positioned defensive formation on a free kick after 37 minutes led to martiña's F. Ferrán López giving the visitors the lead 0 - 1. 0 - 1 was the score after the first half. CAT-ALANS enjoyed most of the ball, as they maintained 51 percent of possession.

Some things can only be learned through experience, and G. Badstöber should take his lesson to heart after nearly gifting martiña a goal with 79 minutes of the match played. CAT-ALANS's M. Ragnlind made an attempt at equalising 81 minutes into the match, coming in from the right, but the ball hit the post and the defence easily cleared the rebound. With 82 minutes gone, CAT-ALANS had a free kick in a decent position. Despite this being a great chance for a shot, they tried a cheeky move intended to bypass the defence. However, A. Marčev did not manage to connect with it cleanly and the ball went out. Possession in the forty-five minutes was dominated by CAT-ALANS, with 52 percent of the ball.

The most dominating CAT-ALANS player was without a doubt S. Maxim. However, R. Massarenti made a disastrous appearance. martiña's top performer was clearly L. Behrenreiter-Prziemski Scharnitz. D. Murauer turned in a dismal performance, however. The match ends 0 - 1.
