Warriors2012 were mostly trying to use their skill at attacking on the flanks. F. Galdeano of newwwteamm received a yellow card after 13 minutes for unsportsmanlike behaviour. A corner kick created great disorder in the penalty area with a goal nearly scored by L. Vâlcu. At last, Warriors2012's M. Jebli was able to backheel the ball in. 1 - 0. Warriors2012's G. Belge increased the lead to 2 - 0, after he saw his shot go between the legs of the advancing goalkeeper following some good play down the right wing after 30 minutes. At this point, it was obvious that the players of Warriors2012 lowered the tempo and became more defensively oriented. F. Galdeano enjoyed the sunshine and demonstrated his stunning technique over and over again. After 38 minutes, newwwteamm's N. Petkov swiftly ran past I. Kuzmanov and nutmegged the keeper! 2 - 1. The visitors kept the pressure on to tie the game when, after 39 minutes, J. Llusà broke through the centre and found himself alone with the keeper. P. Clausi made a great block, though. newwwteamm's C. Iribarren was shown a yellow card after 40 minutes for slicing down an opponent. 2 - 1 was the halftime score. Warriors2012 claimed to have seen most of the ball, and the statistics agreed with them - possession being 51 percent.

The visitors' equaliser seemed sure to come after 61 minutes, following a one on one situation around the left hand side of the goal area, but P. Clausi got the best of it, blocking the shot from J. Llusà. Usually a powerful player on the field, M. Jebli looked kind of pale and tired under the hot sun. newwwteamm levelled the score after 81 minutes to make it 2 - 2, as J. Ramírez Guzmán struck home after a fine midfield combination through the centre, which left him completely unmarked. newwwteamm enjoyed most of the ball, as they maintained 62 percent of possession.

Warriors2012's best player was A. Rados. P. Clausi turned in a dismal performance, however. Most important newwwteamm player was Ó. Granyena. On the other hand, A. Albero's play was disheartening. The match ends 2 - 2.
