Spectators: 7514 (Terracing: 5636, Seating: 1728, VIP seats: 150) Dark clouds were building up when the players entered the field. None of the them looked very eager to play. Alfredo Di Stefano started the match with the kick off. Gonzalo Indar lost his temper 4 minutes into the game and shoved another player to the ground. He was immediately shown a red card. After a rather tough play, Kotler FC's Gonzalo Indar got a free kick in the 4th minute. Alfredo Di Stefano sent away a hard shot on goal in the 6th minute, but the ball went just over the crossbar and out. A very good chance. Patrik Sjöberg took care of the ball after a well-directed shot from Rosendo Rojelio, even though the ball almost passed him on his left side. When Rosendo Rojelio came up free with the goalie in the 12th minute, the Kotler FC 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 Rosendo Rojelio couldn't finish the play. Omar Birila hit a great freekick 13 minutes into the match. Hermengildo Gimenez recieved an excellent pass in front of the goal in the 14th minute. Unfortunately, he received the ball on his off foot and could only manage a weak shot that went over the goal. If Hermengildo Gimenez had kept his shot down it would have been a goal in the 19th minute. The ball went over the crossbar and out instead. Alfredo Di Stefano fired away a screaming shot towards the goal in the 23rd minute, but the shot went just over the crossbar without Anacleto Orland having to interfere. Anacleto Orland took care of the ball after a well-directed shot from Julian Innocenzio, even though the ball almost passed him on his left side. In the 30th minute, Rosendo Rojelio left the goalkeeper for dead before tapping the ball into the right side of the net. The Kotler FC fans were clearly happy with the effort and the scoreboard reflected the new score: 0-1. Alfredo Di Stefano's late challenge caught a Kotler FC's player on the shin and left him crawling around in pain. The referee blew his whistle and produced the yellow card. Alfredo Di Stefano helped the player get up and apologised. The supporters of Kotler FC booed when Lobo Norte was adjudged a doubtful freekick after 34 match minutes in a wonderful position. Alfredo Di Stefano didn't get a good kick on the ball. Lobo Norte's Julian Innocenzio got a good chance for a goal in the 39th minute, but he totally mistimed the shot and it went over the crossbar. After a rather tough play, Lobo Norte's Rodrigo Orlan got a free kick in the 42nd minute. An unexpectedly hard shot by Arnaldo Castulo in the 43rd minute of play forced Lobo Norte's goalkeeper Patrik Sjöberg to throw himself to the left, to be able to save the ball. Luck had favoured the away team in the first, and they walked off with a 0-1 lead.

Hermengildo Gimenez received a nice pass, split the defenders, and ran untouched towards the goal. Patrik Sjöberg came out and tried to block the shot, but Hermengildo Gimenez slotted it home off the left post making it 0-2 in the 55th minute. 67 minutes into the match, Kotler FC's goal looked a bit too open when Alfredo Di Stefano came free, but Anacleto Orland reached the ball before it rolled over the goal line. With a couple of smart ball manuevers Lorenzo Columbo in the 70th managed to get into a good position. With a left leg Anacleto Orland saved Kotler FC from getting behind. Patrik Sjöberg took care of the ball after a well-directed shot from Rosendo Rojelio, even though the ball almost passed him on his left side. Godofredo Hodei blasted a shot towards the goal in the 74th minute, but the shot hit the top of the crossbar and went out without Patrik Sjöberg having to make a save. Kotler FC's Hermengildo Gimenez got a good chance for a goal in the 80th minute, but he totally mistimed the shot and it went over the crossbar. After 81 played minutes Lobo Norte got a freekick which was hit by Alfredo Chepe. Alfredo Di Stefano scored 1-2 in the 83rd match minute with a shot that went into the goal to the right of Anacleto Orland, who was just a little too slow in reacting to the shot. In the 90th minute Lorenzo Columbo shot on, it seemed, an open goal, but Anacleto Orland saw the ball coming and threw himself on it before it passed the goal line. The audience thought a goal was coming when Hermengildo Gimenez got free with Patrik Sjöberg in the 92nd minute, but the goalkeeper managed to catch the ball with a huge effort. Kotler FC were delighted with the way they had won the match. They had held their defensive line well and made the most of their chances, to claim a victory over Lobo Norte's much stronger midfield.
