Spectators: 41 (Terracing: 32, Seating: 9, VIP seats: 0) Bernardino Ofelio started the match with the kick off in front of an excited audience. In the 7th minute, Šair Lupin reached a very good position and smashed the ball with a huge effort into the net, just to the left of Flavio Vittori. The goal made the score 1-0. Fabian Manni made in the 13th minute of the game a fairly good throw-in which was taken care of by Ezequiel Emesto. Siricio Liotta struck a weak shot in the 15th minute. Arnulfo Kinsen didn't even have to move as the ball rolled over the line well wide of the goal. A wasted opportunity for Italy. Porziano Marchitelli scored 1-1 in the 21st match minute with a shot that went into the goal to the right of Arnulfo Kinsen, who was just a little too slow in reacting to the shot. In the 23rd minute Porziano Marchitelli shot on, it seemed, an open goal, but Arnulfo Kinsen saw the ball coming and threw himself on it before it passed the goal line. Italy were awarded a corner in the 24th minute after Laurita FC's defender lost control of the ball, allowing it to roll out over the line. Sigfrido Auletta took the corner. The corner ended in Sigfrido Auletta almost managing to get the ball behind the net, but Laurita FC's Arnulfo Kinsen did a great save. After some careless play in the Laurita FC defense, Zaccheo Andolina kicked a shot that curved into the net to the right of Arnulfo Kinsen. The Laurita FC fans voiced their displeasure as they felt that Arnulfo Kinsen should have stopped the shot. 31 minutes into the match, Italy's Zaccheo Andolina sent off a blazing shot straight on target, a shot that Arnulfo Kinsen narrowly saved just below the crossbar. Italy's Siricio Liotta quite brazenly broke a throw-in by Du Zheng Rong, made in the 37th minute of the game. Laurita FC's Arnulfo Kinsen played magnificently when he managed to stop the ball from hitting the goal, after a sharp shot by Sigfrido Auletta in the 38th minute of play. Flavio Vittori made a wonderful reflex save on a shot from Bernardino Ofelio in the 46th minute of play.

The players of the away team seemed most concentrated when Zaccheo Andolina stepped up to make the kick off in the second half. Du Zheng Rong made in the 51st minute of the game a throw-in that took a bad bounce and was taken care of by Italy's Siricio Liotta. Arnulfo Kinsen was out of position in the 51 minute of play, and Zaccheo Andolina capitalized on the mistake with a soft shot into the goal. Zaccheo Andolina really showed his touch with that goal: 1-3. 60 minutes into the game, Du Zheng Rong threw the ball into play from the sideline. Italy's Siricio Liotta quickly snatched the ball and retained possesion. Laurita FC's Arnulfo Kinsen proved his good apprehension of play when he, in the 64th minute of the match, managed to save Laurita FC from getting a goal against them. After a rather tough play, Laurita FC's Du Zheng Rong got a free kick in the 69th minute. Laurita FC's Mario Alberto Kempes was substituted for Šair Lupin. Laurita FC's Hélder Fernandez was substituted for Bernardino Ofelio. Sigfrido Auletta could have scored with his fast shot on goal in the 78th minute of the match, but Arnulfo Kinsen made a huge save. In the 79th match minute, Laurita FC was awarded a freekick, the ball was picked up by Du Zheng Rong to maneuver through the defense. The audience thought a goal was coming when Zaccheo Andolina got free with Arnulfo Kinsen in the 83rd minute, but the goalkeeper managed to catch the ball with a huge effort. Flavio Vittori took care of the ball after a well-directed shot from Mario Alberto Kempes, even though the ball almost passed him on his left side. Arnulfo Kinsen made a wonderful reflex save on a shot from Zaccheo Andolina in the 90th minute of play. When Porziano Marchitelli came up free with the goalie in the 93rd minute, the Italy fans jumped to their feet. But the shot missed the goal by a fraction of an inch, and the fans sat back down disappointed that Porziano Marchitelli couldn't finish the play. Italy's Sansone Vanella was substituted for Gianpaolo Mascari. Italy made a substitution. Guiscardo Davide replaced Sigfrido Auletta. When the match was over Italy could go home with a victory in their luggage, having controlled the game far better than Laurita FC throughout the match.
