Although the rival goalkeeper came out well at Enrique’s feet, Camacho was attentive to push the rebound into the back of the net. The 2-0 was the work of Martret herself as soon as the 12th minute was over, taking advantage of a run by Lucia Corrales to the end line and pass back.
Shortly after, Fiamma Benítez made it 3-0 on the scoreboard with a header from Corrales’ cross from the left. Before the break, Camacho achieved his double with the involuntary help of goalkeeper Zuzana Kozurikova, who did not catch a shot from the omnipresent Corrales and left the rebound in favor of the mustacheadora scoring.

The sixth was scored by Lucía ‘Wifi’ Moral in the 78th minute, in the middle of the small area and benefiting from a racket at the exit of a corner.
Kozurikova, trying to clear a chip from ‘Wifi’, scored the final 7-0 in stoppage time.
