Spectators: 7510 (Terracing: 5633, Seating: 1727, VIP seats: 150) The mood of the audience was pleasant when Rodolfo Leizarraga made the kick off which started today's match. Karl-Erik Mellin made a wonderful reflex save on a shot from Nereo Hever in the 8th minute of play. JKs Talanger's defense didn't have a chance, in the 10th minute, when Uriel Mino scored to the left of an out of position Karl-Erik Mellin, making the score, 1-0. In the 24th minute Hardas Bat shot on, it seemed, an open goal, but Florentino Arano saw the ball coming and threw himself on it before it passed the goal line. After a rather tough play, JKs Talanger's Kjell-Arne Jonasson got a free kick in the 25th minute. After 27 minutes, Nicki Nick mouthed his way into the referee's book. The tension between the JKs Talanger and the Juventus Argentina FC players grew even worse after the yellow card. In the 27th match minute, JKs Talanger was awarded a freekick, the ball was picked up by Nicki Nick to maneuver through the defense. In the 30th minute, Kjell-Arne Jonasson hit a crossing free kick to the open man running down the field. Karl-Erik Mellin was out of position in the 41 minute of play, and Cacá Riquelme capitalized on the mistake with a soft shot into the goal. Cacá Riquelme really showed his touch with that goal: 4-0. The home fans were very happy to see their team leading 4-0 at half-time.

Both teams looked relatively alert before the second half when the referee blew his whistle to tell Hardas Bat to make the kick off. The supporters of Juventus Argentina FC booed when JKs Talanger was adjudged a doubtful freekick after 55 match minutes in a wonderful position. Nicki Nick didn't get a good kick on the ball. In the 58th minute Cacá Riquelme shot on, it seemed, an open goal, but Karl-Erik Mellin saw the ball coming and threw himself on it before it passed the goal line. 59 minutes into the game, Juventus Argentina FC's Cacá Riquelme nearly tore a hole in the net with a booming shot. Karl-Erik Mellin made a valiant effort, but he could not reach the ball in time, 5-0. JKs Talanger's Nicki Nick managed, thanks to a brazen rush, stole the ball on a throw-in made by Leopoldo Duarte in the 82 minute of the game. Hardas Bat could have scored with his fast shot on goal in the 87th minute of the match, but Florentino Arano made a huge save. Florentino Arano showed brilliant goalkeeper skills when he caught the ball after a hard shot from Hardas Bat in the 89th minute of the match. Kjell-Arne Jonasson fired away a screaming shot towards the goal in the 92nd minute, but the shot went just over the crossbar without Florentino Arano having to interfere. There were very few away supporters still in the ground by the end of the match. Most of them had left early, disgusted by the way their team had been torn apart. Juventus Argentina FC fully deserved thier win.
