Spectators: 43 (Terracing: 33, Seating: 10, VIP seats: 0) The mood of the audience was pleasant when Kaapo Stein made the kick off which started today's match. When Patricio Costa fell near the penalty area in the 5th minute he thought he would be awarded a free kick. The referee ignored Venezuela's protests and gave Patricio Costa a yellow card for diving instead. After 5 played minutes Venezuela got a freekick which was hit by Patricio Costa. Kaapo Steins short, quick shot in the 6thth minute got Jonathan Ferrant to make great effort and bar the ball away from getting in. After some fancy dribbling in the 9th minute, Faustino Villahoz managed to get in a good position for a shot. Nutridal F.C.'s supporters rose to their feet, but Faustino Villahoz was a bit off balance and shot the ball just wide of the left post. Jonathan Ferrant breathed a sigh of relief and went to take the goal kick. After having played for 12 minutes, Tomas Illescas managed to get in a good position for a shot on goal. Venezuela's supporters crossed their fingers, but Tomas Illescas was, after a quick turn that froze the defenders, out of balance and shot the ball just to the right of the goal. With a little luck, Venezuela's Jonathan Ferrant got control of the ball when Kaapo Stein tried to sneak it across the goal line. Hulk Hugan showed his good apprehension of the play when he made a fantastic save on a shot from Tomas Illescas, who was totally free with the ball in the 15th minute. Kaapo Stein scored 1-0 in the 20th match minute with a shot that went into the goal to the right of Jonathan Ferrant, who was just a little too slow in reacting to the shot. After 23 minutes, Tomas Illescas made it 1-1 with a short kick to the right side. Nutridal F.C.'s Hulk Hugan tried to save the shot but he was too slow in reacting to the shot. If Patricio Costa had kept his shot down it would have been a goal in the 26th minute. The ball went over the crossbar and out instead. Hulk Hugan came out of the goal in the 30th minute to try and stop a shot by Venezuela's Tomas Illescas. But to his dismay, Tomas Illescas quickly shot the ball in between his legs and into the goal making it 1-2. When Kaapo Stein came up free with the goalie in the 32nd minute, the Nutridal F.C. 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 Kaapo Stein couldn't finish the play. Tomas Illescas fired away a screaming shot towards the goal in the 40th minute, but the shot went just over the crossbar without Hulk Hugan having to interfere. After 41 played minutes Nutridal F.C. got a freekick which was hit by Philibert Bouty. Kaapo Stein sent away a hard shot on goal in the 44th minute, but the ball hit the crossbar and went out.
