F. Fuertes kept the home side in the game with a magnificent save when J. Fres Jaramillo delivered an almost perfect free kick to the far post. spain92 needed a fresh pair of legs on the field, and after 68 minutes B. Ben-moussa made way for F. Sech. Although the whole team were struggling to impress, spain92's A. Tabuenca was singled out as being the problem as he was called off the pitch after 71 minutes. C. Durante was given a chance to change things around. The bench was restless, and with 71 minutes passed spain92's coach gave J. Masmartí the opportunity the player had been hoping for. R. Torres Moreno reluctantly left the field. The game was characterised by rough play and many physical challenges on the wet field, but S. Draper showed great heart and had a good game. A defender managed to keep the ball from crossing the goal-line after a curling shot coming in from the right from J. Hinnerk after 78 minutes, and prevented Acebo from going up another goal. S. Nurjaman, who often relies on his speed, had a rotten day on the drenched grass. Acebo had a good opportunity to attack in the middle, but remembered their instructions to focus on wing attacks instead. Acebo enjoyed most of the ball, as they maintained 61 percent of possession.

The most dominating spain92 player was without a doubt H. Dueñas. F. Fuertes on the other hand, had a terrible day. Acebo's best player was S. Draper. However, X. Guzmán made a disastrous appearance. The match ends 0 - 4.
