Humberto Medina fired away a screaming shot towards the goal in the 5th minute, but the shot went just over the crossbar without Hernan Domiku having to interfere. In the 8th minute of the match, Leo Mitxel got a very nice opportunity to score, but Cornelio Jatsu was well-placed and pushed the ball away from the goal at the left post.

Cornelio Jatsu didn't even have to move as the ball rolled over the line well wide of the goal. A wasted opportunity for Olimpo FC.

Leo Mitxel fired away a screaming shot towards the goal in the 33rd minute, but the shot went just over the crossbar without Cornelio Jatsu having to interfere. After a defensive mix-up in Olimpo FC's zone, Humberto Medina stole the ball and had only the goalie to beat. Hernan Domiku came out of the goal and Humberto Medina tried to chip the ball over his head. To his dismay, the ball went over the crossbar and out of play. 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.

After some fancy dribbling in the 55th minute, Leo Mitxel managed to get in a good position for a shot.

In the 57th minute Humberto Medina shot on, it seemed, an open goal, but Hernan Domiku saw the ball coming and threw himself on it before it passed the goal line.

After 70 played minutes Alexander Video Club got a freekick which was hit by Gervasio Fonso. If Jedrzej Scigan had kept his shot down it would have been a goal in the 77th minute. The ball went over the crossbar and out instead. Jedrzej Scigan struck a weak shot in the 79th minute. Hernan Domiku didn't even have to move as the ball rolled over the line well wide of the goal. A wasted opportunity for Alexander Video Club.
