Before kick-off, the players from both sides paid tribute to Jesús de Miguel. In addition, the Costa Adeje Tenerife players wore t-shirts in memory of the forward. The first chance of the match fell to 'Bicho', but the midfielder's shot was dealt with by Nay Cáceres, who prevented a goal with a great save. Meanwhile, a reliable Meritxell Muñoz cut out a dangerous attacking move from her opponent. At the other end, Natalia Padilla tried her luck for the Tenerife side. It was a tightly contested affair, but neither team managed to break the deadlock. On the half-hour mark, Anita Marcos tried her luck with a header that sailed just inches over the crossbar.
Five minutes later came one of the standout saves of the weekend. Nay Cáceres flew through the air to deny Anita Marcos' overhead kick, as the striker was already licking her lips in search of the coveted goal. In the 39th minute, a free-kick delivery from Paula Gutiérrez was headed home by Anita Marcos to send the ball straight into the back of the net and make it 1-0 on the scoreboard. The forward was named Player of the Match. Just before the break, Natalia Padilla could have leveled the score, but Meritxell Muñoz made a crucial intervention to maintain the Catalan side's 1-0 lead at the end of the first forty-five minutes. Right at the start of the second half, Costa Adeje Tenerife, who came out pressing high up the pitch, managed to equalize.

A brilliant pass from Natalia Padilla was capitalized on by Annahita Zamanian, who rounded the home goalkeeper to score her goal of the match. Lucía Vallejo had the chance to put the Catalan team back in front, but Nay Cáceres kept the shot out. Paulina Gramaglia was the Canary Islands outfit's first change of the match as they went in search of a comeback. The forward came close to getting on the end of a good low cross. Anita Marcos responded at the other end with a cross-shot that found no takers, and Patri Ojeda was the home side's first substitution. The post denied Anita Marcos a goal after she let fly with a shot that crashed directly against the woodwork.
Raquel García also came close to scoring, but Nay Cáceres gathered the ball. The game turned in the 77th minute when Noelia Salazar unleashed a ferocious strike into the far corner, making Meritxell Muñoz's dive in vain. Both teams made changes. Yerliane Moreno and Pisco came on for Costa Adeje Tenerife, while Iara Lacosta and Browne were introduced by RCD Espanyol as they pushed to equalize once again. Indeed, Browne came close to scoring, though it was Paulina Gramaglia who capitalized on a defensive error from Meritxell Muñoz to seal a final 1-3 scoreline. Nay Cáceres, with two fine saves in the closing stages of the match, ensured the scoreline remained unchanged.
