Cesar Min made an important save on a dangerous shot by Jithu Keng in the 13th minute. 袁振军 recieved an excellent pass in front of the goal in the 15th minute. Unfortunately, he received the ball on his off foot and could only manage a weak shot that went over the goal. Marcos Correia struck a weak shot in the 17th minute. Erasmo Sabino didn't even have to move as the ball rolled over the line well wide of the goal. A wasted opportunity for Casbas FC. Alfonso Jerico recieved an excellent pass in front of the goal in the 19th minute. Unfortunately, he received the ball on his off foot and could only manage a weak shot that went over the goal. If Marcos Correia had kept his shot down it would have been a goal in the 20th minute. The ball went over the crossbar and out instead. Constantino Basualdo recieved an excellent pass in front of the goal in the 23rd minute. Unfortunately, he received the ball on his off foot and could only manage a weak shot that went over the goal.

In the 45th minute, Cornelio Claus reached a very good position and smashed the ball with a huge effort into the net, just to the left of Cesar Min. The goal made the score 2-0. No-one was surprised that the home team were leading 2-0 at half-time.

An unexpectedly hard shot by 袁振军 in the 52nd minute of play forced Soccer City FC's goalkeeper Erasmo Sabino to throw himself to the left, to be able to save the ball.

In the 66th minute, Astor Hunfredo hit a crossing free kick to the open man running down the field. In the 68th minute Jithu Keng shot on, it seemed, an open goal, but Cesar Min saw the ball coming and threw himself on it before it passed the goal line. Soccer City FC's Erasmo Sabino played magnificently when he managed to stop the ball from hitting the goal, after a sharp shot by Ignacio Segio in the 70th minute of play. Casbas FC were awarded a corner in the 71th minute after Soccer City FC's defender lost control of the ball, allowing it to roll out over the line. 袁振军 took the corner.

Erasmo Sabino was clearly disgusted with the effort of the defense and let the defenders know about it. A collision led to Soccer City FC getting a freekick after 85 minutes play. Jithu Keng hit a great ball. In the 88th minute Jithu Keng shot on, it seemed, an open goal, but Cesar Min saw the ball coming and threw himself on it before it passed the goal line. 93 minutes into the match, Soccer City FC's goalkeeper Erasmo Sabino had to clear away a ball on his right side after a cunning shot by 袁振军.
