Counter-attacking seemed to be the preferred strategy of indalo.
Pasgon were relying on their ability to counter-attack.
A free kick aimed at the keeper's far post almost gave Pasgon the lead 9 minutes in, but the ball just wasn't able to squirm its way through the defensive wall.
Pasgon's
A. Colomer could have put the guests one up after 24 minutes after chasing a through ball from the right, but
A. Derrech was as fast as a snake, grabbing the ball from under his nose.
indalo's
K. Beobide refused to leave the field after injuring his achilles tendon after 26 minutes.
It was 0 - 0 at the break.
indalo enjoyed most of the ball, as they maintained 52 percent of possession.
The home crowd breathed a collective sigh of relief when
B. Sposób was unable to put the ball in the net after his show of skill down the left 57 minutes into the match. He was seen beating the pitch in frustration at missing such a good chance to give his team the lead!
Pasgon's
T. Benedek managed to lose the defenders as he advanced down the right wing and scored, putting the visitors ahead after 75 minutes. 0 - 1.
After several obvious shirt pulling incidents,
S. Bernal got himself booked. The manager of indalo was not happy.
A counterattack by Pasgon after 86 minutes could have resulted in a goal, but
P. Exerica, coming in on the left, couldn't get the shot off.
Pasgon almost scored after a swift counterattack 88 minutes into the game, but
B. Sposób put the shot from the left flank just outside the goal.
Content with how the game was proceeding, the Pasgon coach let

B. Sposób after 89 minutes.

L. Savernik.

A. Valentín produced a poor shot, quite easily saved by
R. Rivero.

The most dominating indalo player was without a doubt

L. Savernik was a disappointment, however.
The match ends 1 - 1.
