Spectators: 6664 (Terracing: 5000, Seating: 1661, VIP seats: 3) Dark clouds were building up when the players entered the field. None of the them looked very eager to play. Serafino Colon started the match with the kick off. In the 5thth minute of the game Serafino Colon who was perfectly placed tried to make a shot on goal, but Florida AFC's Cornelio Valerio was lucky and managed to grab hold of the ball. The supporters of Florida AFC booed when Rastrojos was adjudged a doubtful freekick after 8 match minutes in a wonderful position. Higinio Eleder didn't get a good kick on the ball. Florida AFC's Edgard Nalo couldn't find anyone to pass the ball to, so he shot a long shot towards the goal in the 9th minute. The shot went wide which resulted in a goal kick for Rastrojos. After a defensive mix-up in Rastrojos's zone, Leandro Abascal stole the ball and had only the goalie to beat. Ulises Hunfredo came out of the goal and Leandro Abascal tried to chip the ball over his head. To his dismay, the ball went over the crossbar and out of play. Through an outstanding action, after 16 minutes, Ulises Hunfredo successfully got his hands on the ball before it slid into the goal at the right post. Jacobo Donostia's late challenge caught a Florida AFC's player on the shin and left him crawling around in pain. The referee blew his whistle and produced the yellow card. Jacobo Donostia helped the player get up and apologised. In the 17th minute, Jacobo Donostia hit a crossing free kick to the open man running down the field. Guaberto Nuxila might have been able to make a better finish in the 19th minute when he tried to place a hard shot over Cornelio Valerio. Instead the ball went over the crossbar and out. Guaberto Nuxila ran back to his position shaking his head. Serafino Colon blasted a shot towards the goal in the 20th minute, but the shot hit the top of the crossbar and went out without Cornelio Valerio having to make a save. In the 23rd minute, Guaberto Nuxila got an opportunity to score, but he didn't get a solid hit on the ball and ended up kicking it wide of the goal. Rastrojos's Ulises Hunfredo proved his good apprehension of play when he, in the 26th minute of the match, managed to save Rastrojos from getting a goal against them. The audience thought a goal was coming when Rigoberto Mannie got free with Ulises Hunfredo in the 29th minute, but the goalkeeper managed to catch the ball with a huge effort. Serafino Colon struck a weak shot in the 31st minute. Cornelio Valerio didn't even have to move as the ball rolled over the line well wide of the goal. A wasted opportunity for Rastrojos. After having played for 35 minutes, Rigoberto Mannie managed to get in a good position for a shot on goal. Florida AFC's supporters crossed their fingers, but Rigoberto Mannie was, after a quick turn that froze the defenders, out of balance and shot the ball just to the right of the goal. After a rather tough play, Rastrojos's Higinio Eleder got a free kick in the 36th minute. Ulises Hunfredo made an important save on a dangerous shot by Rigoberto Mannie in the 37th minute. If Rigoberto Mannie had kept his shot down it would have been a goal in the 40th minute. The ball went over the crossbar instead. Ulises Hunfredo came out of the goal in the 44th minute to try and stop a shot by Florida AFC's Rigoberto Mannie. But to his dismay, Rigoberto Mannie quickly shot the ball in between his legs and into the goal making it 1-0. No-one was surprised that the home team were leading 1-0 at half-time.

The players of the home team were most fresh-looking when they entered the field to play the second half. Leandro Abascal was the one to do the kick off. Rigoberto Mannie recieved an excellent pass in front of the goal in the 52nd minute. Unfortunately, he received the ball on his off foot and could only manage a weak shot that went over the goal. Leandro Abascal sent away a hard shot on goal in the 59th minute, but the ball went just over the crossbar and out. A very good chance. If Leandro Abascal had kept his shot down it would have been a goal in the 61st minute. The ball went over the crossbar and out instead. Ulises Hunfredo showed his good apprehension of the play when he made a fantastic save on a shot from Rigoberto Mannie, who was totally free with the ball in the 66th minute. Rastrojos's Celedonio Iyan was first on the ball when the corner was shot and he dangerously headed the ball towards goal, but Cornelio Valerio in the goal jumped up to prevent it from getting in. Florida AFC were awarded a corner in the 77th minute after Rastrojos's defender lost control of the ball, allowing it to roll out over the line. Edgard Nalo took the corner. After taking down the ball on Florida AFC's corner Edgard Nalo fired away a hard shot, but the defenders efficiently covered the most dangerous angles and Ulises Hunfredo quite easily take care of the ball. After some fancy dribbling in the 80th minute, Rigoberto Mannie managed to get in a good position for a shot. Florida AFC's supporters rose to their feet, but Rigoberto Mannie was a bit off balance and shot the ball just wide of the left post. Ulises Hunfredo breathed a sigh of relief and went to take the goal kick. 85 minutes into the match, Leandro Abascal notched a goal, 2-0, to the right of Rastrojos's Ulises Hunfredo. Ulises Hunfredo was clearly disgusted with the effort of the defense and let the defenders know about it. After having played for 92 minutes, Leandro Abascal managed to get in a good position for a shot on goal. Florida AFC's supporters crossed their fingers, but Leandro Abascal was, after a quick turn that froze the defenders, out of balance and shot the ball just to the right of the goal. Rastrojos's players left the field with heads hung low after losing a match that had been finely balanced throughout.
