Spectators: 41 (Terracing: 32, Seating: 9, VIP seats: 0) Syrianska FC's Marc Wayne started the match with a crisp pass. The crowd had been anticipating this game for weeks and the excitement in the stadium was easily visible. After 3 minutes of play, Chile's Mariano Lacasa made it 0-1 when he simply outclassed the defender marking him and hit a curling shot into the right side of the net. Arkadiusz Walat was left in no man's land by his defense there! With a couple of smart ball manuevers Mariano Lacasa in the 6th managed to get into a good position. With a left leg Arkadiusz Walat saved Syrianska FC from getting behind. Chile's attentive Pedro Indiano managed to snatch the ball when Stig-Arne Melberg made a throw-in in the 8th minute of the game. An unexpectedly hard shot by Mariano Lacasa in the 10th minute of play forced Syrianska FC's goalkeeper Arkadiusz Walat to throw himself to the left, to be able to save the ball. In the 12th 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. In the 23rd minute Orlando Casaus shot on, it seemed, an open goal, but Arkadiusz Walat saw the ball coming and threw himself on it before it passed the goal line. Thiago Pliego made a wonderful reflex save on a shot from Sakarias Nordstedt in the 25th minute of play. The supporters of Syrianska FC booed when Chile was adjudged a doubtful freekick after 30 match minutes in a wonderful position. Orlando Casaus didn't get a good kick on the ball. Orlando Casaus made a great header on Chile's corner, it was just that Syrianska FC's Arkadiusz Walat managed to reach the ball for a save. When the match had gone on for 40 minutes, Orlando Casaus put it in 0-2 from a short distance just to the right of Arkadiusz Walat. The crowd was extremely unhappy with the home team's performance in the first half. They were losing 0-2.

In the 50th minute Orlando Casaus suffered a thigh injury and had to be helped off the field. When Quinn Quet fell near the penalty area in the 50th minute he thought he would be awarded a free kick. The referee ignored Syrianska FC's protests and gave Quinn Quet a yellow card for diving instead. Quinn Quet kicked well hit freekick during the 52nd minute of the match. The audience thought a goal was coming when Domingo Mancebo got free with Arkadiusz Walat in the 65th minute, but the goalkeeper managed to catch the ball with a huge effort. In the 70th minute, Sakarias Nordstedt made a precise shot to the right of Thiago Pliego. Chile's defense was at fault, and the scoreboard reflected the new score, 1-2. Syrianska FC's Hannes Engström was substituted for Billy Lång. With a couple of smart ball manuevers Sakarias Nordstedt in the 74th managed to get into a good position. With a left leg Thiago Pliego saved Chile from getting behind. Domingo Mancebo sent away a hard shot on goal in the 78th minute, but the ball went just over the crossbar and out. A very good chance. Guillermo Fontirroig fired away a difficult shot at goal in the 81st minute. He almost succeeded, but the ball went over. It was a very nice shot. 84 minutes into the game, Sakarias Nordstedt cracked a shot to the right of the goalkeeper, 2-2. Thiago Pliego was not in position, and could only watch the ball fly in. Arkadiusz Walat took care of the ball after a well-directed shot from Domingo Mancebo, even though the ball almost passed him on his left side. When the referee blew the final whistle, you could see the dissatisfaction in the Chile players' eyes. They were disappointed they hadn't taken more from the game.
