Counter-attacking seemed to be the preferred strategy of FC.belloqui. For their match strategy, Ovejitas had decided to use their ability to counter-attack whenever possible. FC.belloqui took the lead after 25 minutes as a result of V. Pollicino's peach of a shot from the right hand side of the box - placed beautifully in the top corner. 1 - 0. The opposing supporters gave the referee an earful when he only gave J. Soeteman from FC.belloqui a yellow card after a mistimed challenge from behind 29 minutes into the game. That was far too lenient! Unfortunately for Ovejitas, H. Teague was injured when the game became more physical, and he had to leave the field. T. Kryszak replaced him. Almost all the way down to the corner flag, FC.belloqui's R. Bestagno somehow managed to get a perfect pass into the middle, impossible to miss for A. Ankudimov, who struck for 2 - 0. 35 minutes into the game FC.belloqui managed a counterattack, but O. Farreró took a soft shot from the left flank that was easy prey for the alert keeper. Ovejitas had to make a substitution after 37 minutes. E. Casasbuenas limped off the field and was replaced by J. Revulgo. It was 2 - 0 at the break. Possession in the forty-five minutes was dominated by Ovejitas, with 53 percent of the ball.

A great save by keeper P. Saternus after 53 minutes kept the visitors in the game after V. Pollicino struck from the left with a real cannonball. With 62 minutes played, FC.belloqui put themselves up 3 - 0 when the visiting defenders lost the ball to A. Ankudimov, who came up from the left and proceeded to coolly round the keeper and knock the ball home. By now, the players in FC.belloqui felt that victory was guaranteed and began to play it safe, focusing on defence and not risking too much going forward. A magnificent combination in the middle resulted in FC.belloqui's A. Ankudimov increasing the lead to 4 - 0. That made three goals for A. Ankudimov and he was marked down for the hat trick. Ovejitas had most of the ball, with 57 percent of possession.

Most important FC.belloqui player was A. Ankudimov. V. Pollicino was a disappointment, however. J. Béiztegui performed admirably for Ovejitas. On the other hand, T. Kryszak's play was disheartening. The match ends 4 - 0.
