Clouds darkened the skies at Estadi Josep Guardiola as 875 spectators turned up for the match. Renzo Cabanas was the appointed referee with assistance provided by Rudolf Liška and Xavier Llop. A 4-5-1 alignment was the formation of choice for juanvi. Lineup: Braz - Aramendia, Eguióiz, Sáinz Diez, Valdeón - Contreras, Husk, Guinart, Bocija, Biesterfeld - Stensson.

Perkins had chosen a strategic 3-5-2 formation. They fielded: Juchacz - Herráiz, Escavias, Cabeza - Cea, Ibarra, Foldgast, Gómez Martelo, Palmiola - Golfín, Viñuela.

juanvi took the lead 9 minutes in, as J. Stensson broke through on the left and put the 1 - 0 shot just beyond the reach of the outstretched keeper. Perkins's C. Gómez Martelo got himself booked for a foul. Coming from the right, F. Eguióiz almost managed to score another goal for juanvi, but his header was tipped over the bar by the visitors' keeper. J. Stensson of juanvi received a yellow card after 39 minutes for unsportsmanlike behaviour. The teams went for the halftime break at 1 - 0. juanvi had most of the ball, with 70 percent of possession.

Some things can only be learned through experience, and E. Cabeza should take his lesson to heart after nearly gifting juanvi a goal with 61 minutes of the match played. J. Aramendia should probably have put his team up another goal after 80 minutes, but some great goalkeeping by F. Juchacz kept the visitors in the game. juanvi claimed to have seen most of the ball, and the statistics agreed with them - possession being 77 percent.

B. Sáinz Diez performed admirably for juanvi. A. Braz was a disappointment, however. Most important Perkins player was P. Foldgast. On the other hand, J. Herráiz's play was disheartening. The match ends 1 - 0.
