A sloppy throw-in by Nixon Cerrajero in the 5th minute of the game went astray and was snapped up by ALANAG's Pio Cordova. If Xavion Zumarraga had kept his shot down it would have been a goal in the 5th minute. The ball went over the crossbar and out instead.

After some careless play in the Orianga defense, Xavion Zumarraga kicked a shot that curved into the net to the right of Alejandro Brunet. The Orianga fans voiced their displeasure as they felt that Alejandro Brunet should have stopped the shot. After the first half ALANAG were leading 0-2.
