A sloppy throw-in by Väino Karbo in the 28th minute of the game went astray and was snapped up by Uruguay's Arturo Carvallo. In the 31st minute the ball was on its way in behind Uruguay's goalkeeper Joaquin Gayoso, but with the help of a sacrificing defense, he could catch the ball at the crossbar.

Maarek Nõmme took care of the ball after a well-directed shot from Maximiliano Escribano, even though the ball almost passed him on his left side.

When Uruguay's Maximiliano Escribano, in the 46th minute, received a pass right in front of the net, it looked like a certain goal, but his shot went outside. A wasted opportunity for Uruguay. FC Raasiku Kõrid's Maarek Nõmme played magnificently when he managed to stop the ball from hitting the goal, after a sharp shot by Maximiliano Escribano in the 47th minute of play. Even after changing tactics the home team jogged off the field with a 0-2 deficit. They would have to work harder if they wanted to turn things around in the second half.

The players of the home team were most fresh-looking when they entered the field to play the second half. Jaak Laanemets was the one to do the kick off.

Francisco Seco succeeded to score despite a near miss that spronge from right pole into the goal to 0-5 in the 77th playminute.

The FC Raasiku Kõrid players were clearly disappointed as they left the ground.
