dierio mostly ignored the flanks in favour of their ability to attack in the middle. M. Tapia Mateo was struggling to make the ball dance with his usual trickery and panache, and the opposing players had little trouble shutting him down in these muddy conditions. The referee signaled a penalty for the home side after 3 minutes, amid vocal protests from the visitors. dierio fans erupted in celebration as H. Neira rifled the ball into the the top corner. 1 - 0! After several obvious shirt pulling incidents, P. Gelambí got himself booked. The manager of Gorchs was not happy. dierio were determined to attack in the middle, even their wing attacks ended up centrally. Cheers filled the stadium as S. Stocco broke through the visitors' central defence to put away the ball to increase the lead to 2 - 0 to dierio. dierio's A. Redondo's long shot really ought to have found the net 31 minutes into the match, but it fell just wide of the target. With 33 minutes played, N. O'Kane of dierio fell dramatically just outside the penalty area. However, the referee was unimpressed, and booked him for diving. A speedy charge from the left side of the field increased the lead of dierio to 3 - 0 as S. Stocco finished it off competently, firing in from an acute angle. After this, you could see that the players of dierio were more interested in killing time than scoring more goals. S. Kumpmann of dierio received a yellow card after 37 minutes for unsportsmanlike behaviour. dierio's J. Rocafort 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 38 minutes. 4 - 0 was the halftime score. dierio enjoyed most of the ball, as they maintained 92 percent of possession.

52 minutes into the match, the visitors' central line of defence had to look on as J. Rocafort broke through, making the score 5 - 0 for dierio. J. Rocafort left the field with a smile on his face as he was substituted 66 minutes into the game, as his team was in the lead. C. Galobardes was the replacement. dierio managed to extend their lead to 6 - 0 when S. Stocco cut in neatly from the left side and struck a fine shot past the away team's goalkeeper. At that, S. Stocco was noted down for a hat trick! The coach of dierio was happy with the game so far, but still wanted to change the line up. After 70 minutes, I. Garrido Pérez came on for A. Redondo. Central attacks were the recipe of the day for dierio, as they moved the ball from the wings to the middle with startling regularity. S. Stocco had a fantastic opportunity to put dierio up another goal 72 minutes into the match, but he fired just over the crossbar. The score became 7 - 0 at 73 minutes into the game, when dierio were given a penalty which H. Neira blasted straight down the middle giving the keeper no chance! After 74 minutes, J. Estorch put dierio ahead 8 - 0 when he rose to head in a cross from the right wing. S. Kumpmann wanted to play on, but the dierio coach had other ideas, and he was replaced 75 minutes into the game by S. Ravid. Possession in this half belonged to dierio, who controlled the ball 94 percent of the time.

E. Borrello performed admirably for dierio. G. Valls on the other hand, had a terrible day. The most dominating Gorchs player was without a doubt P. Torres Ochoa. However, J. Echandi made a disastrous appearance. The match ends 8 - 0.
