Spectators: 7756 (Terracing: 5819, Seating: 1783, VIP seats: 154) Dark clouds were building up when the players entered the field. None of the them looked very eager to play.

Haşim Batüralp showed his good apprehension of the play when he made a fantastic save on a shot from Sebastián Battaglia, who was totally free with the ball in the 5th minute.

Nojus Bikas might have been able to make a better finish in the 27th minute when he tried to place a hard shot over Ruben Sánchez. Instead the ball went over the crossbar and out. Nojus Bikas ran back to his position shaking his head. The crowd rose to their feet as Kings's Nojus Bikas slotted home a wonderful shot that went in to the left of Ruben Sánchez.

Rubén-Darío Feldmann fired away a screaming shot towards the goal in the 97th minute, but the shot went just over the crossbar without Haşim Batüralp having to interfere.
