Randkleve Stadion
Spectators: 45 (Terracing: 35, Seating: 10, VIP seats: 0) The field was rather wet after several days of rain when Shi Xiang Zhi took the kick off in the first half of the match. Thiago Pliego made a fantastic save in the 6th minute, when Al Bundy sent off a good shot on target. Chile's Guillermo Fontirroig got a good chance for a goal in the 10th minute, but he totally mistimed the shot and it went over the crossbar. In the 13th minute, Basilio Ramírez hit a crossing free kick to the open man running down the field. Thiago Pliego made a fantastic save in the 16th minute, when Shi Xiang Zhi sent off a good shot on target. In the 17th minute, Chile's Gerardo Pozo seemed to kick out at an opponent. The referee saw this and, surprisingly, showed Gerardo Pozo the red card, dismissing him from the pitch. The coaching staff of Chile protested bitterly, but the referee would have none of it, and Gerardo Pozo had no choice but to slowly walk off the pitch. 19 minutes into the match, Chile's goalkeeper Thiago Pliego had to clear away a ball on his right side after a cunning shot by Frands Byel. Thiago Pliego took care of the ball after a well-directed shot from Shi Xiang Zhi, even though the ball almost passed him on his left side. Liu Hui Qi who was well placed in front of the goal fired away a dangerous shot that in the 25thth minute tested the skills of Thiago Pliego when he managed to save the team from getting behind. Randkleve's Liu Hui Qi got a good chance for a goal in the 27th minute, but he totally mistimed the shot and it went over the crossbar. After a rather tough play, Randkleve's Shi Xiang Zhi got a free kick in the 31st minute. After having played for 42 minutes, Guillermo Fontirroig managed to get in a good position for a shot on goal. Chile's supporters crossed their fingers, but Guillermo Fontirroig was, after a quick turn that froze the defenders, out of balance and shot the ball just to the right of the goal. Dragolyub Pastirov's late challenge caught a Chile's player on the shin and left him crawling around in pain. The referee blew his whistle and produced the yellow card. Dragolyub Pastirov helped the player get up and apologised. After 43 played minutes Randkleve got a freekick which was hit by Dragolyub Pastirov. The score stood at 0-0 when the half time whistle went. Both sets of players seemed reasonably pleased with how the match was going.

When the second half was about to start, both teams quickly lined up and Orlando Casaus made a kick off. 52 minutes into the match, Xavier Figueroa had an open shot that he just couldn't miss and scored to the right of Lucjan Sedzikowski. Randkleve's manager could be seen yelling to the referee that Xavier Figueroa was offside, but the referee ignored the protest. 0-1. Francisco Carballar hit a great freekick 56 minutes into the match. In the 60thth minute of the game Shi Xiang Zhi who was perfectly placed tried to make a shot on goal, but Chile's Thiago Pliego was lucky and managed to grab hold of the ball. An unexpectedly hard shot by Shi Xiang Zhi in the 64th minute of play forced Chile's goalkeeper Thiago Pliego to throw himself to the left, to be able to save the ball. Lucjan Sedzikowski showed his good apprehension of the play when he made a fantastic save on a shot from Pedro Indiano, who was totally free with the ball in the 74th minute. Shi Xiang Zhi received a nice pass in the box and took a hard shot in the 82nd minute. Thiago Pliego tensed up and prepared to dive, but the shot went over the goal with him having to interfere. The supporters of Chile booed when Randkleve was adjudged a doubtful freekick after 95 match minutes in a wonderful position. Frands Byel didn't get a good kick on the ball. In the 96th minute, Randkleve's goalie took a deep sigh of relief after Guillermo Fontirroig fired away a hard shot that went just outside the left post. Despite being the better team, Chile failed to find the winning goal and were forced to settle for a single point.
