The wings were the focus of most of Retirados's attacks today. Z. Zikán caused the crowd to go mental with his goal up the middle after 10 minutes. This gave nietzscheanos the 1 - 0 lead. E. Conesa had a fantastic opportunity to put nietzscheanos up another goal 15 minutes into the match, but he fired just over the crossbar. nietzscheanos's J. Carasa had to watch the rest of the game from the sidelines, after twisting his ankle with 16 minutes having been played. C. Aktün was the replacement. G. Dolne unleashed a swerving effort from the right that the visitors' keeper did well to tip wide. A cross coming in on the right hand side left J. Becker alone in front of the goal after 25 minutes but his shot was woeful. The opposing supporters gave the referee an earful when he only gave J. Clairac from Retirados a yellow card after a mistimed challenge from behind 31 minutes into the game. That was far too lenient! Halftime score was 1 - 0. nietzscheanos enjoyed most of the ball, as they maintained 55 percent of possession.

An equalising goal seemed certain after 72 minutes when J. Becker attacked down the left wing, but P. Ladrero just managed to make a save to keep the ball out of the net. A late sliding challenge from J. Clairac was deemed to be his second yellow card offence by the referee, resulting in him being sent off, and Retirados left a man down. A magnificent combination in the middle resulted in nietzscheanos's T. Cee increasing the lead to 2 - 0. Q. Riba of nietzscheanos was booked for kicking the ball away after the whistle. Q. Riba remonstrated furiously with the referee after nietzscheanos had another decision go against them. The referee had no alternative but to show him another yellow card and send him from the pitch. nietzscheanos had most of the ball, with 58 percent of possession.

nietzscheanos's top performer was clearly E. Conesa. On the other hand, P. Ladrero's play was disheartening. The most dominating Retirados player was without a doubt P. Garreta. However, J. Becker made a disastrous appearance. The match ends 2 - 0.
