The pre-season derby was not very friendly. It had a heated atmosphere right from the get-go. Then, when Setién complained about the Tenerife's aggressiveness, it didn't go down well with Tenerife. The post-match stage served as a breeding ground for the situation. Arencibia injured Nano during a tackle, causing him to have a grade 1-2 sprain in the external lateral ligament of his left knee, lighting a fuse among the teams. For several minutes the occurrence turned into a "street" fight, resulting in four players being sent off.
In terms of the match, Las Palmas took the lead in the third minute, with Míchel Macedo scoring a goal. Both teams performed well, up until the row in the sixtieth minute. Tenerife kept playing with ten players, and the Sport Union with eight, but Martí's team was not able to take advantage of their lead in numbers, and the result remained the same until the end. Tenerife ended up winning the match, from the fifth edition of the Copa Mahou, in the penalties stage, when Dani, managed to steal the limelight with his two strikes.
