Spectators: 7464 (Terracing: 5602, Seating: 1717, VIP seats: 145) It was fairly windy and cold on the field when Domingos Danel kicked off to start the match. Patricio Sazon showed his good apprehension of the play when he made a fantastic save on a shot from Domingos Danel, who was totally free with the ball in the 3rd minute. After a defensive mix-up in Argentina F.C.'s zone, Domingos Danel stole the ball and had only the goalie to beat. Patricio Sazon came out of the goal and Domingos Danel tried to chip the ball over his head. To his dismay, the ball went over the crossbar and out of play. Thanks to some nice foot action and superb ball handling Gilberto Suero in the 7th minute a chance for a shot on goal. With an extended leg and a bit of luck Patricio Sazon prevented the ball from getting in the gole. After 18 minutes, Marcelino Jerrold mouthed his way into the referee's book. The tension between the Argentina F.C. and the Zarate unidos players grew even worse after the yellow card. In the 18th minute, Marcelino Jerrold hit a crossing free kick to the open man running down the field. After 26 played minutes Argentina F.C. got a freekick which was hit by Emiliano Bernal. Gilberto Suero struck a weak shot in the 27th minute. Patricio Sazon didn't even have to move as the ball rolled over the line well wide of the goal. A wasted opportunity for Zarate unidos. Zarate unidos's Marco Cristofor quite brazenly broke a throw-in by Rafael Lixandro, made in the 30th minute of the game. If Israel Nafarroa had kept his shot down it would have been a goal in the 33rd minute. The ball went over the crossbar and out instead. Wincent Dranka was in a good position and managed to take a shot, but he missed just to the outside of the post. Bernardino Tanio showed brilliant goalkeeper skills when he caught the ball after a hard shot from Marcelino Jerrold in the 39th minute of the match. Gilberto Suero hit a great freekick 41 minutes into the match. A collision led to Argentina F.C. getting a freekick after 43 minutes play. Rafael Lixandro hit a great ball. After fighting hard for a draw in the first half, the players were able to take a much needed rest.

The players of the home team were most fresh-looking when they entered the field to play the second half. Juan Bizāns was the one to do the kick off. The Argentina F.C. fans' excitement grew in the 52nd match minute when Argentina F.C.'s Juan Bizāns looked to have a clear shot with the ball near the goal. The shot wasn't hard, but the ball still rolled over the goal line to make it 0-1 before the goalkeeper had a chance to intervene. Zarate unidos's Bernardino Tanio proved his good apprehension of play when he, in the 56th minute of the match, managed to save Zarate unidos from getting a goal against them. 63 minutes into the game, Astor Salvator was given a yellow card after he appeared to trip an opposing player. Zarate unidos's manager was livid on the sidelines, but the referee was unmoved and gave Argentina F.C. the free kick. After a rather tough play, Zarate unidos's Astor Salvator got a free kick in the 63rd minute. 64 minutes into the match, Marcelino Jerrold sent off a long shot that looked like it was going straight into the goal, but because Bernardino Tanio threw himself in his full length he managed to grip the ball by the left post, and there was no goal for Marcelino Jerrold this time. In the 65th minute, Costel Almajan hit a crossing free kick to the open man running down the field. 68 minutes into the match, Argentina F.C.'s Israel Nafarroa sent off a blazing shot straight on target, a shot that Bernardino Tanio narrowly saved just below the crossbar. Juan Bizāns in the 72ndth minute had a little luck and got a chance for a shot in front of the goal. Without hesitation aimed to the right of Bernardino Tanio, who managed to lunge to the right direction and made a save. In the 73rd minute, Israel Nafarroa got an opportunity to score, but he didn't get a solid hit on the ball and ended up kicking it wide of the goal. An unexpectedly hard shot by Israel Nafarroa in the 79th minute of play forced Zarate unidos's goalkeeper Bernardino Tanio to throw himself to the left, to be able to save the ball. The Argentina F.C. supporters could be heard counting down the last seconds of the match. They errupted in celebration when the whistle blew, knowing Argentina F.C. would go home with victory in their luggage after a match that easily could have ended differently.
