Spectators: 7333 (Terracing: 5250, Seating: 1943, VIP seats: 140) Dark clouds were building up when the players entered the field. None of the them looked very eager to play. Marcos Pedrero started the match with the kick off. After 2 minutes, Nazario Hervias mouthed his way into the referee's book. The tension between the Alianza AQP and the Tigre FC players grew even worse after the yellow card. Nazario Hervias kicked well hit freekick during the 2nd minute of the match. If Marcos Pedrero had kept his shot down it would have been a goal in the 4th minute. The ball went over the crossbar and out instead. In the 7th match minute, Alianza AQP was awarded a freekick, the ball was picked up by Dante Carrizo to maneuver through the defense. 8 minutes into the match, Alianza AQP's goal looked a bit too open when Hartz Rado came free, but Ximun Hurdinosa reached the ball before it rolled over the goal line. Selatse Camacho was out of position in the 12 minute of play, and Marcos Pedrero capitalized on the mistake with a soft shot into the goal. Marcos Pedrero really showed his touch with that goal: 1-0. When the match clock showed 22 minutes, the score became 2-0 when Marcos Pedrero sped through Tigre FC's defense and sent away a curving shot that went into the net to the right of Selatse Camacho. Tigre FC's defense didn't have a chance, in the 25th minute, when Marcos Pedrero scored to the left of an out of position Selatse Camacho, making the score, 3-0. In the 28th minute Marcos Pedrero shot on, it seemed, an open goal, but Selatse Camacho saw the ball coming and threw himself on it before it passed the goal line. If Marcos Pedrero had kept his shot down it would have been a goal in the 29th minute. The ball went over the crossbar and out instead. Alianza AQP's Nazario Hervias got a good chance for a goal in the 31st minute, but he totally mistimed the shot and it went over the crossbar. After having played for 36 minutes, Hartz Rado managed to get in a good position for a shot on goal. Tigre FC's supporters crossed their fingers, but Hartz Rado was, after a quick turn that froze the defenders, out of balance and shot the ball just to the right of the goal. Hartz Rado sent away a hard shot on goal in the 39th minute, but the ball went just over the crossbar and out. A very good chance.

When Marcos Pedrero came up free with the goalie in the 63rd minute, the Alianza AQP 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 Marcos Pedrero couldn't finish the play. In the 67th minute, Marcos Pedrero left the goalkeeper for dead before tapping the ball into the right side of the net. The Alianza AQP fans were clearly happy with the effort and the scoreboard reflected the new score: 4-0. An unexpectedly hard shot by Orlo Barcaiztegui in the 70th minute of play forced Alianza AQP's goalkeeper Ximun Hurdinosa to throw himself to the left, to be able to save the ball. 78 minutes into the game, Marcos Pedrero was given a yellow card after he appeared to trip an opposing player. Alianza AQP's manager was livid on the sidelines, but the referee was unmoved and gave Tigre FC the free kick. After some fancy dribbling in the 80th minute, Orlo Barcaiztegui managed to get in a good position for a shot. Tigre FC's supporters rose to their feet, but Orlo Barcaiztegui was a bit off balance and shot the ball just wide of the left post. Ximun Hurdinosa breathed a sigh of relief and went to take the goal kick. Marcos Pedrero received a nice pass in the box and took a hard shot in the 83rd minute. Selatse Camacho tensed up and prepared to dive, but the shot went over the goal with him having to interfere. Hartz Rado's shot was meant for the net just under the crossbar, but Ximun Hurdinosa read the situation well and was quickly in position to make a wonderful save in the 92nd minute of play. It was no surprise that this one had ended in a win for the home team. Alianza AQP had played much better football throughout.
