Sabrosas had chosen a strategic 3-4-3 formation. The following players had been chosen: Sousa Graça - Hadad, Kähkölä, Dvorský - Rosenbo, Alape, Casablanca, Mary - Cano, Crespo, Cabrera.

Sabrosas took the lead 39 minutes into the game, making the score 0 - 1 after some elegant movement down the middle. K. Dvorský was the scorer. With 40 minutes played, after a good run down the left, S. Schintu went down looking for a penalty after a challenge from the visitors' right fullback, but the referee waved play on, and later warned him for diving. 0 - 1 was the score after the first half. Possession in the forty-five minutes was dominated by Rayados, with 54 percent of the ball.

After 66 minutes, Rayados's S. Schintu swiftly ran past K. Dvorský and nutmegged the keeper! 1 - 1. 69 minutes into the game, J. Casablanca almost gave the visitors the lead, as he clipped a delicate lob over the keeper, but the ball glanced harmlessly off the crossbar. 74 minutes into the game, Sabrosas wanted to bring some new energy to their game. Á. Crespo gave D. Morral a quick hug as he left the field. As the 75 minute mark approached, the Sabrosas coach decided it was time for a substitution. J. Casablanca reluctantly made way for J. Oxenstierna on the pitch. Sabrosas's E. Alape was shown a yellow card for standing over the ball and blocking an opponent's quick free kick after 81 minutes. K. Mary of Sabrosas received a yellow card after 83 minutes for unsportsmanlike behaviour. Sabrosas took the lead after 86 minutes making the score 1 - 2. K. Dvorský placed the ball out of reach for the home side's keeper after a fine move, coming in from the left. Sabrosas had most of the ball, with 52 percent of possession.

Rayados's top performer was clearly I. Valcuende. However, D. Helal made a disastrous appearance. Sabrosas's best player was D. Cano. H. Rosenbo on the other hand, had a terrible day. The match ends 1 - 2.
