The coach of andalucia was happy with the game so far, but still wanted to change the line up. After 73 minutes, P. Albano came on for A. Belik. R.Chamm's J. Ocampo got himself booked for a foul. J. Nijeveen wanted to play on, but the andalucia coach had other ideas, and he was replaced 75 minutes into the game by A. Kozhuharov. Coming in on the left, E. Magraner did everything right to get a goal for R.Chamm after 78 minutes, but his finishing shot was stabbed clear by the keeper. Possession of the ball saw an equal split between the teams during the forty-five minutes.

R. Gustings performed admirably for andalucia. On the other hand, A. Kozhuharov's play was disheartening. Most important R.Chamm player was P. Kassanos. J. Forcadell was a disappointment, however. The match ends 5 - 0.
