Spectators: 7207 (Terracing: 5407, Seating: 1657, VIP seats: 143) The field was rather wet after several days of rain when Ulises Lando took the kick off in the first half of the match. Luciano Bakar struck a weak shot in the 8th minute. Leonardo Leoiar didn't even have to move as the ball rolled over the line well wide of the goal. A wasted opportunity for La Loma. After a rather tough play, La Loma's Luciano Bakar got a free kick in the 8th minute. Ambrosio Faron scored 2-1 in the 20th match minute with a shot that went into the goal to the right of Aureliano Jurgi, who was just a little too slow in reacting to the shot.

With a couple of smart ball manuevers Leon Orlan in the 35th managed to get into a good position. With a left leg Aureliano Jurgi saved La Loma from getting behind.

But the shot missed the goal by a fraction of an inch, and the fans sat back down disappointed that Leon Orlan couldn't finish the play.

Leandro Bieito helped the player get up and apologised. The supporters of La Loma booed when Rosario was adjudged a doubtful freekick after 69 match minutes in a wonderful position. Leandro Bieito didn't get a good kick on the ball. If Ulises Lando had kept his shot down it would have been a goal in the 74th minute. The ball went over the crossbar instead.
