Spectators: 6986 (Terracing: 5436, Seating: 1500, VIP seats: 50) The sun was shining, the grass was green and the audience cheered when Jesus Urdin got the match started through his kick off. After 4 played minutes, Los Patys Del Puma's Natalio Figueroa shot from a long distance, and at first it looked like the ball was going into the goal, but the goalkeeper Leandro Lluciano came through and got his fingers on the ball before it flew over the goal line.

The ball went over the crossbar and out instead. In the 13th minute, Caraguatay's Erubiel Hodei ran free of his marker and smoothly shot the ball into the goal behind Vinicio Maule.
