The crowd of 12000 turning up at El Prado today were greeted with some nasty showers of rain. Olivier Fromant was the appointed referee with assistance provided by Rachid Godoy and Arcadio Palma. Váquidos tactics involved an interesting 3-4-3 combination. Starters: Gouel - Vimont, Pârlog, Behrmann Kristensen - Pacífico, Karpenko, Forte, Katsu - Konter, Cuartielles, Passacantando.

smegma.f.c. started off with a 4-3-3 lineup. They fielded: Moreno Cala - Polster, Manso, Kapar, Ispriyanto - Vâlcu, Johannesen, Saltelli - de Andrade, Erkal, Guérin.

smegma.f.c. saw most attack opportunities on the wings. After 14 minutes a well-practised indirect free kick routine by smegma.f.c. was easily anticipated by the defenders. The players forward were so well marked, they were left with few viable options. T. Katsu caused the crowd to go mental with his goal up the middle after 27 minutes. This gave Váquidos the 1 - 0 lead. The boggy pitch disrupted the game, especially for technical players like O. Erkal. Things were deteriorating for the away team as Váquidos scored another to make it 2 - 0 after a left side attack resulted in a goal for R. Passacantando after 34 minutes. Halftime score was 2 - 0. Possession in this half belonged to Váquidos, who controlled the ball 62 percent of the time.

The home team's fans were upset when, after 55 minutes, the visiting P. Guérin broke through the central defence and kicked the ball past the keeper. 2 - 1 was the score. 61 minutes in, smegma.f.c.'s M. Johannesen received a yellow card for going into a challenge studs first. After 62 minutes smegma.f.c.'s T. Ispriyanto limped slightly after a late challenge, but he was able to continue. smegma.f.c. were close to putting the equaliser away after 66 minutes as the opposing defence lost control of the ball to P. Guérin in a scuffle towards the left of the goal, but in the end the ball was cleared over the dead ball line. The opposing supporters gave the referee an earful when he only gave O. Vimont from Váquidos a yellow card after a mistimed challenge from behind 79 minutes into the game. That was far too lenient! A speedy charge from the left side of the field increased the lead of Váquidos to 3 - 1 as M. Cuartielles finished it off competently, firing in from an acute angle. The visitors got one back when R. de Andrade finished off a pass from the left and scored after 83 minutes. 3 - 2 was the score. A penalty 86 minutes into the game gave the home side a chance at adding to the score, but an overconfident O. Vimont shot the ball wide trying to put it away in the top corner. Váquidos's O. Vimont had to watch the rest of the game from the sidelines, after twisting his ankle with 87 minutes having been played. J. Díaz was the replacement. Possession in the forty-five minutes was dominated by Váquidos, with 56 percent of the ball.

Most important Váquidos player was M. Cuartielles. However, T. Katsu made a disastrous appearance. smegma.f.c.'s best player was P. Guérin. On the other hand, M. Vâlcu's play was disheartening. The match ends 3 - 2.
