Spectators: 40 (Terracing: 31, Seating: 9, VIP seats: 0) Dark clouds were building up when the players entered the field. None of the them looked very eager to play. Jacinto Kimetz started the match with the kick off. Lautaro Mancebo scored 0-1 in the 3rd match minute with a shot that went into the goal to the right of A.J. 陈义勇, who was just a little too slow in reacting to the shot. An unexpectedly hard shot by Alberto Tafalla in the 6th minute of play forced ArgenTeam's goalkeeper A.J. 陈义勇 to throw himself to the left, to be able to save the ball. After 10 minutes Mexico's defender was forced to head the ball over the line for a corner. It was Adolfo Erruki who took care of the corner kick. 15 minutes in the game Macos Graciani did a throw-in, and the ball was quickly in game thanks to Joel Gaona. 31 minutes into the match, ArgenTeam's goal looked a bit too open when Lautaro Mancebo came free, but A.J. 陈义勇 reached the ball before it rolled over the goal line. A.J. 陈义勇 made a wonderful reflex save on a shot from Lautaro Mancebo in the 36th minute of play. In the 37th minute Lautaro Mancebo shot on, it seemed, an open goal, but A.J. 陈义勇 saw the ball coming and threw himself on it before it passed the goal line. The crowd rose to their feet as Bruno Xabier kicked a wonderful shot that went in to the left of a diving Dante Lacasa. That made the score 1-3 in the 40 minute of play. After a defensive mix-up in ArgenTeam's zone, Lautaro Mancebo stole the ball and had only the goalie to beat. A.J. 陈义勇 came out of the goal and Lautaro Mancebo tried to chip the ball over his head. To his dismay, the ball went over the crossbar and out of play. Bruno Xabier kicked well hit freekick during the 47th minute of the match. Luck had favoured the away team in the first, and they walked off with a 1-3 lead.

The wind increased when Joel Gaona made the kick off in the second half. The audience thought a goal was coming when Lautaro Mancebo got free with A.J. 陈义勇 in the 51st minute, but the goalkeeper managed to catch the ball with a huge effort. A.J. 陈义勇 made an important save on a dangerous shot by Lautaro Mancebo in the 60th minute. In the 65th minute, Oscar Berse hit a crossing free kick to the open man running down the field. If Lautaro Mancebo had kept his shot down it would have been a goal in the 71st minute. The ball went over the crossbar and out instead. After 74 played minutes ArgenTeam got a freekick which was hit by Okanay Gazir. The supporters of ArgenTeam booed when Mexico was adjudged a doubtful freekick after 78 match minutes in a wonderful position. Macos Graciani didn't get a good kick on the ball. Dante Lacasa came out of the goal in the 81st minute to try and stop a shot by ArgenTeam's Bruno Xabier. But to his dismay, Bruno Xabier quickly shot the ball in between his legs and into the goal making it 2-3. After a rather tough play, Mexico's Facundo Cadaval got a free kick in the 86th minute. In the 89th minute of the match, Joel Gaona tried to roll the ball into the goal by the right post, but A.J. 陈义勇 saw his intentions and got control of the ball before it passed the line. Lautaro Mancebo came free with the goalkeeper in the 94th minute of the match, and shot straight on target. The shot was a little too simple and A.J. 陈义勇 could save by the left post. The away crowd were delighted with the way their team had played and cheered loudly when the final whistle sounded. Mexico walked away with the win, even though the match was close until the end.
