After a rather tough play, Leones de Jah's Maximiliano Vargas got a free kick in the 7th minute. Victorio Txatxu sent away a hard shot on goal in the 12th minute, but the ball hit the crossbar and went out. A very good chance for a goal.

The ball had pretty good speed, but Tomas Thomas firmly grabbed it by the left post. 67 minutes into the match, Bartolo Tome had an open shot that he just couldn't miss and scored to the right of Tomas Thomas. Tobas's manager could be seen yelling to the referee that Bartolo Tome was offside, but the referee ignored the protest. 2-2.

Angelo Markel didn't have a chance when a screaming shot from Victorio Txatxu went, in the 89th minute, to the upper right corner, 4-2 was the resulting score.
