Two results from round 1 and round 4 are missing, as if they Ponferrada forfeited at board #1. Possibly the solution to the mystery is as follows. As there were just three players ready to play, the long-time team director Mr. Carreno ("El Abuelo") decided to play even though his chess skills were quite bad. After two days it became apparent that he may not contribute to the result so it was less evil to forfeit at board #1 and at least let the remaining three to fase weaker opposition.
