Spectators: 7377 (Terracing: 5534, Seating: 1696, VIP seats: 147) The mood of the audience was pleasant when Federico Baldovino made the kick off which started today's match. If Federico Baldovino had kept his shot down it would have been a goal in the 7th minute. The ball went over the crossbar instead. Amancio Indartsu charged in rather forcefully in the 8th minute of the match, and managed to knock his opponent down. The referee showed Amancio Indartsu the yellow card, and asked the players to shake hands before continuing play. A collision led to CLUB ATLETICO AGUSTIN getting a freekick after 9 minutes play. Amancio Indartsu hit a great ball. In the 12th minute, Paolo Clemencin reached a very good position and smashed the ball with a huge effort into the net, just to the left of Melchor Sandaili. The goal made the score 1-0. Arnulfo Caetano received a nice pass in the box and took a hard shot in the 15th minute. Melchor Sandaili tensed up and prepared to dive, but the shot went over the goal with him having to interfere. Federico Baldovino struck a weak shot in the 18th minute. Melchor Sandaili didn't even have to move as the ball rolled over the line well wide of the goal. A wasted opportunity for C. A. Velez Sarsfield. After 20 minutes of play, CLUB ATLETICO AGUSTIN's Jesus Eztebe made it 1-1 when he simply outclassed the defender marking him and hit a curling shot into the right side of the net. Benny Rutten was left in no man's land by his defense there! Arnulfo Caetano sent away a hard shot on goal in the 23rd minute, but the ball went just over the crossbar and out. A very good chance. 33 minutes into the game, Fabio Baumar was given a yellow card after he appeared to trip an opposing player. CLUB ATLETICO AGUSTIN's manager was livid on the sidelines, but the referee was unmoved and gave C. A. Velez Sarsfield the free kick. In the 33rd minute, Fabio Baumar hit a crossing free kick to the open man running down the field. The audience was convinced that Arnulfo Caetano's extremely hard shot when he got free in front of the goal was going in, but Melchor Sandaili was relentless in the 34th minute of the game. In the 36th minute, Jesus Eztebe hit a crossing free kick to the open man running down the field. CLUB ATLETICO AGUSTIN's defense didn't have a chance, in the 42nd minute, when Federico Baldovino scored to the left of an out of position Melchor Sandaili, making the score, 2-1. When Arnulfo Caetano came up free with the goalie in the 48th minute, the C. A. Velez Sarsfield 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 Arnulfo Caetano couldn't finish the play.

Both teams looked relatively alert before the second half when the referee blew his whistle to tell Baldomiro Calvet to make the kick off. Melchor Sandaili showed his good apprehension of the play when he made a fantastic save on a shot from Paolo Clemencin, who was totally free with the ball in the 61st minute. After 63 minutes, Lino Semeno mouthed his way into the referee's book. The tension between the CLUB ATLETICO AGUSTIN and the C. A. Velez Sarsfield players grew even worse after the yellow card. Lino Semeno kicked well hit freekick during the 63rd minute of the match. 70 minutes into the game, C. A. Velez Sarsfield's Paolo Clemencin nearly tore a hole in the net with a booming shot. Melchor Sandaili made a valiant effort, but he could not reach the ball in time, 3-1. Paolo Clemencin sent away a hard shot on goal in the 74th minute, but the ball hit the crossbar and went out. A very good chance for a goal. After a defensive mix-up in CLUB ATLETICO AGUSTIN's zone, Luciano Ortle stole the ball and had only the goalie to beat. Melchor Sandaili came out of the goal and Luciano Ortle tried to chip the ball over his head. To his dismay, the ball went over the crossbar and out of play. Arnulfo Caetano received a nice pass in the box and took a hard shot in the 76th minute. Melchor Sandaili tensed up and prepared to dive, but the shot went over the goal with him having to interfere. Arnulfo Caetano struck a weak shot in the 84th minute. Melchor Sandaili didn't even have to move as the ball rolled over the line well wide of the goal. A wasted opportunity for C. A. Velez Sarsfield. When Federico Baldovino came up free with the goalie in the 86th minute, the C. A. Velez Sarsfield 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 Federico Baldovino couldn't finish the play. Paolo Clemencin sent away a hard shot on goal in the 90th minute, but the ball went just over the crossbar and out. A very good chance. With a little luck, C. A. Velez Sarsfield's Benny Rutten got control of the ball when Jesus Eztebe tried to sneak it across the goal line. After 95 played minutes C. A. Velez Sarsfield got a freekick which was hit by Florentino Nalo. There was no doubt that C. A. Velez Sarsfield were the better team. C. A. Velez Sarsfield's players enjoyed the ovations of the crowd after the victory.
