Counter-attacking seemed to be the preferred strategy of Palafrugell. Palafrugell's E. Deulofeu was shown a yellow card after 6 minutes for slicing down an opponent. A loud groan was heard from the fans of txapel, as V. Chillarón left the pitch in too much pain to finish the match. E. Antunes Gonçalves took his place on the field. Palafrugell broke through on the left 11 minutes into the game, with A. Giorgiani firing in from an acute angle to give the home side a 1 - 0 lead. 18 minutes into the game, A. Giorgiani had to leave the pitch due to a knee injury. In came N. Baumgartner-Klötzner. Palafrugell's F. Spínola saw his fine effort strike the top of the bar following some good work up the middle by his teammates after 24 minutes. The referee showed txapel's A. Vilar the yellow card after a particularly nasty challenge. 1 - 0 was the score after the first half. Palafrugell claimed to have seen most of the ball, and the statistics agreed with them - possession being 55 percent.

Palafrugell's S. Parisod swung in a good chance from the left, but the visitors' defence were able to clear the ball. Possession in this half belonged to txapel, who controlled the ball 51 percent of the time.

Palafrugell's top performer was clearly N. Baumgartner-Klötzner. A. Sánchez turned in a dismal performance, however. txapel's best player was J. Ålberg. E. Antunes Gonçalves was a disappointment, however. The match ends 1 - 0.
