Spectators: 37 (Terracing: 29, Seating: 8, VIP seats: 0) Mateo Pellegrino made the kick off and thus started the match.

Norberto-Doroteo Méndez scored 0-2 in the 23rd match minute with a shot that went into the goal to the right of Javier Milei, who was just a little too slow in reacting to the shot. After 25 minutes, Americo Lluc mouthed his way into the referee's book. The tension between the Sportivo Luan Toro and the Pity 31 players grew even worse after the yellow card.

Gustavo Campagnuolo dived to the right, and did manage to get a hand on the shot, but it still went into the right corner making it 1-2. Even after changing tactics the home team jogged off the field with a 1-2 deficit. They would have to work harder if they wanted to turn things around in the second half.

When the second half was about to start, both teams quickly lined up and Americo Lluc made a kick off. In the 51st minute Norberto-Doroteo Méndez shot on, it seemed, an open goal, but Javier Milei saw the ball coming and threw himself on it before it passed the goal line.

Sportivo Luan Toro's Edgard Argenis quite brazenly broke a throw-in by Evaristo Avellaneda, made in the 76th minute of the game.

With an extended leg and a bit of luck Javier Milei prevented the ball from getting in the gole.

The referee ignored Pity 31's protests and gave Abelardo Petrigai a yellow card for diving instead. After a rather tough play, Pity 31's Abelardo Petrigai got a free kick in the 79th minute. Javier Milei took care of the ball after a well-directed shot from Norberto-Doroteo Méndez, even though the ball almost passed him on his left side.
