A 3-5-2 alignment was the formation of choice for El Borgo. They fielded: Bercini - Tarletti, Campagnoli, Del brusco - Giusto, Eramo, Riccio, Tornaghi, Gazzana - Mulazzani, Padrin.

Entomophobics tactics involved an interesting 3-5-2 combination. The following players took the field: Constantinescu - Paritario, Majkrzak, Corrêa Costa - Gonzálvez, Marchetti, Jagadish, Gnudi, Alamino - Alejos, Cuatrecases.

El Borgo's D. Tarletti tried to break through in the middle repeatedly, but couldn't get past the visitors' defenders. Entomophobics had several good opportunities to take the lead, especially 20 minutes in when S. Marchetti came up alone against M. Bercini who managed a block. The opposing supporters gave the referee an earful when he only gave D. Paritario from Entomophobics a yellow card after a mistimed challenge from behind 28 minutes into the game. That was far too lenient! A. Alejos came close to putting the visiting team one up 29 minutes into the match, following a solo raid down the middle, but M. Bercini managed to tip the ball to a corner. 39 minutes into the match and the home team took a 1 - 0 lead after breaking through on the left. The scorer for El Borgo was G. Tornaghi. 1 - 0 was the halftime score. Possession in this half belonged to El Borgo, who controlled the ball 56 percent of the time.

El Borgo's A. Padrin saw his fine effort strike the top of the bar following some good work up the middle by his teammates after 62 minutes. 64 minutes into the match, the visitors' central line of defence had to look on as C. Mulazzani broke through, making the score 2 - 0 for El Borgo. El Borgo's F. Riccio struck his penalty well enough to beat the goalkeeper and extend the home team's lead to 3 - 0 after 72 minutes. The coach of El Borgo was happy with the game so far, but still wanted to change the line up. After 72 minutes, C. Gosmar came on for F. Riccio. El Borgo's C. Mulazzani increased the lead to 4 - 0, after he saw his shot go between the legs of the advancing goalkeeper following some good play down the right wing after 73 minutes. The players of El Borgo now seemed to think the job was done and acted more defensively, just waiting for the ref to blow the final whistle. 76 minutes were showing on the scoreboard when Entomophobics's D. Paritario received his second yellow card and was sent off. El Borgo enjoyed most of the ball, as they maintained 54 percent of possession.

The most dominating El Borgo player was without a doubt C. Mulazzani. However, C. Gosmar made a disastrous appearance. Entomophobics's top performer was clearly A. Alejos. J. Gonzálvez was a disappointment, however. The match ends 4 - 0.
