Overcast weather free of rain made for a crowd turnout of 41898 at Pregunte al final de la calle y allí le indicará today. Nunzio Vonzun was the appointed referee with assistance provided by Josh MacQueen and Armando Coens. The derby had been the talk of Madrid all week and fans of both teams could be seen throughout the stadium. Mostoleños decided to use a 3-4-3 set up. The following players took the field: Álvarez Cabanilla - Ordoñez, Vacirca, Stenudd - Nasıf, Piñeyro, Sada, Cardona - Opalka, Giaran, Cànaves.

Matrukitos had chosen a strategic 4-4-2 formation. Lineup: Palomino - Morup-Jensen, Röytiö, Indacoechea, Brakstad - Calhau, Xuviño, Iaselli, Frost - Zhidkov, Thrul.

Matrukitos were relying on their ability to counter-attack. M. Vacirca caused the crowd to go mental with his goal up the middle after 23 minutes. This gave Mostoleños the 1 - 0 lead. After 28 minutes, Matrukitos switched R. Morup-Jensen with Z. Serfőző, hoping for a quick impact on the pitch. A magnificent combination in the middle resulted in Mostoleños's O. Cànaves increasing the lead to 2 - 0. The home side's P. Stenudd came close to extending the lead 35 minutes into the game. His shot came in from the right hand side but P. Palomino managed to save it with an unbelievable reaction stop. R. Thrul knocked one home from a counterattack down the right wing, making the score 2 - 1 after 36 minutes. Halftime score was 2 - 1. Mostoleños had most of the ball, with 66 percent of possession.

A counterattack by Matrukitos after 58 minutes could have resulted in a goal, but C. Xuviño, coming in on the left, couldn't get the shot off. Matrukitos tied it all up, 67 minutes in, after a spectacular goal by R. Thrul, who miraculously broke through the home side's central defence, making it 2 - 2. After 68 minutes U. Giaran made a speedy advance and dropped the ball to A. Opalka who shuffled it past the keeper. The score was now 3 - 2. Mostoleños put themselves up 4 - 2 when M. Ordoñez broke through on the right, leaving the entire defence trailing in his wake. The bench was restless, and with 70 minutes passed Matrukitos's coach gave A. Mehta the opportunity the player had been hoping for. R. Thrul reluctantly left the field. Things were going to get worse for the visitors. A. Opalka squirmed through their central defence after 74 minutes, increasing the lead to 5 - 2. S. Álvarez Cabanilla wanted to play on, but the Mostoleños coach had other ideas, and he was replaced 74 minutes into the game by D. Locca. As the captain was no longer on the pitch, M. Nasıf took over the role of being the Mostoleños captain. The Mostoleños players could smell victory in the air. M. Nasıf wasn't in a hurry to leave the field as he was substituted for L. Lattanzi after 74 minutes. L. Lattanzi was handed the Mostoleños captain's armband. The coach of Mostoleños was happy with the game so far, but still wanted to change the line up. After 75 minutes, P. Brandío came on for A. Opalka. L. Lattanzi had a fantastic opportunity to put Mostoleños up another goal 78 minutes into the match, but he fired just over the crossbar. After 80 minutes, the defensive line of Matrukitos created a counterattack through the middle that gave B. Frost a good look at the goal, but his shot glanced harmlessly off the crossbar. Mostoleños claimed to have seen most of the ball, and the statistics agreed with them - possession being 69 percent.

Mostoleños's top performer was clearly O. Cànaves. D. Locca turned in a dismal performance, however. Most important Matrukitos player was V. Zhidkov. However, A. Mehta made a disastrous appearance. The match ends 5 - 2.
