The players of the home team were most fresh-looking when they entered the field to play the second half. Manfredo Sá was the one to do the kick off. Amadeo Su kicked well hit freekick during the 57th minute of the match. Ismael Donostia was probably a little too eager to shoot when he, in the 58th played minute, shot the ball from way out. The shot was hard, but the ball flew wide of the goal. 60 minutes into the match, Manfredo Sá had an open shot that he just couldn't miss and scored to the right of Honorato Laurgain.

After some fancy dribbling in the 62nd minute, Manfredo Sá managed to get in a good position for a shot. LOA FC's supporters rose to their feet, but Manfredo Sá was a bit off balance and shot the ball just wide of the left post. Honorato Laurgain breathed a sigh of relief and went to take the goal kick.
