11492 spectators had come to El prado verde this cloudy day. Marvin Stefan Meyer was the appointed referee with assistance provided by Danny Doohan and Davide Gius. A 3-5-2 alignment was the formation of choice for PoblenouFCteam. Lineup: Irueta - Quintanilla, Gabilondo, Urrue - Banger, Couzinet, Bangueses, Muratov, Bolaño - Recchia, Männik.

And CF decided to use a 4-4-2 set up. They fielded: Armaroli - Fillol, Raga, Calvet, Burón - Dieye, López Losada, Torrents, Oliván - Ríos, Anastasi.

The wings were the focus of most of PoblenouFCteam's attacks today. 9 minutes in, PoblenouFCteam's A. Bolaño received a yellow card for going into a challenge studs first. PoblenouFCteam created a good opportunity to score 14 minutes into the match when P. Männik's hooked ball from the left created a scuffle in front of the goal, and the visitors' defenders had a hard time clearing the ball. P. Männik was very close to giving PoblenouFCteam the lead with an ingenious free kick routine 18 minutes into the match, but the ball just grazed the bar. And CF's P. Ríos gave the visitors a 0 - 1 lead after 24 minutes with a superb strike from the right. 0 - 1 was the score after the first half. Possession in this half belonged to PoblenouFCteam, who controlled the ball 55 percent of the time.

And CF increased their lead after 49 minutes when À. Anastasi broke through on the right, upping the score to 0 - 2, much to the home crowd's dismay. By now, the players in And CF felt that victory was guaranteed and began to play it safe, focusing on defence and not risking too much going forward. A late sliding challenge from A. Bolaño was deemed to be his second yellow card offence by the referee, resulting in him being sent off, and PoblenouFCteam left a man down. Having been awarded a free kick in an awkward position after 82 minutes, PoblenouFCteam did not go for a shot but instead fired the ball hard into the 6 yard box. After a brief tussle with his marker, L. Muratov was able to power the ball past the keeper to make the score 1 - 2. PoblenouFCteam claimed to have seen most of the ball, and the statistics agreed with them - possession being 54 percent.

PoblenouFCteam's top performer was clearly E. Bangueses. R. Banger on the other hand, had a terrible day. Most important And CF player was D. López Losada. However, M. Dieye made a disastrous appearance. The match ends 1 - 2.
