In the 4th minute, Grupo Informatico's Leonardo Naelio ran free of his marker and smoothly shot the ball into the goal behind Skënder Filipi. Skënder Filipi yelled at his defense, as they had left him out to dry. 1-0. 17 minutes into the game, Florencio Abarca was given a yellow card after he appeared to trip an opposing player.

After 42 played minutes Grupo Informatico got a freekick which was hit by Florencio Abarca.

The supporters of Pogradeci FCA booed when Grupo Informatico was adjudged a doubtful freekick after 46 match minutes in a wonderful position. Modesto Abadia didn't get a good kick on the ball. After fighting hard for a draw in the first half, the players were able to take a much needed rest.

The players of the home team were most fresh-looking when they entered the field to play the second half. Teofilo Natanael was the one to do the kick off. Martion Mati received a nice pass in the box and took a hard shot in the 61st minute. Felip Mondragon tensed up and prepared to dive, but the shot went over the goal with him having to interfere.
