Spectators: 35 (Terracing: 27, Seating: 8, VIP seats: 0) The audience thought a goal was coming when Mai Hong Zhen got free with Germán Luz in the 4th minute, but the goalkeeper managed to catch the ball with a huge effort. In the 6th minute, ≡≡ SOMOS ARGENTINA ≡≡'s Silvestre Cuartio seemed to kick out at an opponent. The referee saw this and, surprisingly, showed Silvestre Cuartio the red card, dismissing him from the pitch. The coaching staff of ≡≡ SOMOS ARGENTINA ≡≡ protested bitterly, but the referee would have none of it, and Silvestre Cuartio had no choice but to slowly walk off the pitch. 7 minutes into the match, Malcolm Stenman had an open shot that he just couldn't miss and scored to the right of Vágner Loyola. ≡≡ SOMOS ARGENTINA ≡≡'s manager could be seen yelling to the referee that Malcolm Stenman was offside, but the referee ignored the protest. 0-1. If Malcolm Stenman had kept his shot down it would have been a goal in the 11th minute. The ball went over the crossbar instead.
