Cavalito FC's attacker deliberately struck the ball against an opponent to win a corner for his team. The corner was taken by Lorenzo Columbo in the 7th minute. Godfredo Polo did some fancy footwork in front of goal and succeeded to deceive the defenders so he could slam the ball in 1-0 to the left of a surprised Luciano Cresitobalo 10 minutes into the match. After 15 minutes of play Tambillo AFC's Eulalio Cugat was too eager in his attempt to stop his opponent and brought him down. With that he got his second yellow card and was ordered off the ground. A collision led to Tambillo AFC getting a freekick after 15 minutes play. Eulalio Cugat hit a great ball. Godfredo Polo in the 17thth minute had a little luck and got a chance for a shot in front of the goal. Without hesitation aimed to the right of Luciano Cresitobalo, who managed to lunge to the right direction and made a save. An unexpectedly hard shot by Leopoldo Mirande in the 19th minute of play forced Cavalito FC's goalkeeper Godofredo Onofre to throw himself to the left, to be able to save the ball. 20 minutes into the game, Haroldo Erramu was given a yellow card after he appeared to trip an opposing player.

After some fancy dribbling in the 34th minute, Octavio Romo managed to get in a good position for a shot. Cavalito FC's supporters rose to their feet, but Octavio Romo was a bit off balance and shot the ball just wide of the left post.

In the 37th minute Israel Vitin shot on, it seemed, an open goal, but Godofredo Onofre saw the ball coming and threw himself on it before it passed the goal line. Luciano Cresitobalo acted impressively in front of the goal and made a superb save when he, in the 38th minute, took the ball on the long shot from Lorenzo Columbo.

It was a penalty for Tambillo AFC! When Godfredo Polo came up free with the goalie in the 81st minute, the Cavalito 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 Godfredo Polo couldn't finish the play. Bernardo Bazkoare blasted a shot towards the goal in the 82nd minute, but the shot hit the top of the crossbar and went out without Luciano Cresitobalo having to make a save. The attack was good, but when Godfredo Polo in the 83rd minute was about to shoot he didn't kick quite good enough and the ball went high over goal. Octavio Romo received a nice pass in the box and took a hard shot in the 84th minute. Luciano Cresitobalo tensed up and prepared to dive, but the shot went over the goal with him having to interfere. If Bernardo Bazkoare had kept his shot down it would have been a goal in the 92nd minute. The ball went over the crossbar and out instead. 94 minutes into the match, Tambillo AFC's goal looked a bit too open when Godfredo Polo came free, but Luciano Cresitobalo reached the ball before it rolled over the goal line. Luciano Cresitobalo showed brilliant goalkeeper skills when he caught the ball after a hard shot from Bernardo Bazkoare in the 96th minute of the match. After a defensive mix-up in Tambillo AFC's zone, Godfredo Polo stole the ball and had only the goalie to beat. Luciano Cresitobalo came out of the goal and Godfredo Polo tried to chip the ball over his head. To his dismay, the ball went over the crossbar and out of play. It was no surprise that this one had ended in a win for the home team. Cavalito FC had played much better football throughout.
