He then quickly gripped the ball tighter before the forwards in Picantovich Green Rangers reached it. In the 12th minute Ernesto Guillelme shot on, it seemed, an open goal, but Mauro Natal saw the ball coming and threw himself on it before it passed the goal line.

Mauro Natal dived to the right, and did manage to get a hand on the shot, but it still went into the right corner making it 1-1.

Delmiro Quin made a wonderful reflex save on a shot from Tadeo Eneto in the 53rd minute of play.

After 57 minutes of play, Nacimiento AFC's Augusto Aritza made it 3-1 when he simply outclassed the defender marking him and hit a curling shot into the right side of the net. Delmiro Quin was left in no man's land by his defense there! Ernesto Guillelme received a nice pass in the box and took a hard shot in the 63rd minute. Mauro Natal tensed up and prepared to dive, but the shot went over the goal with him having to interfere.

An unexpectedly hard shot by Augusto Aritza in the 80th minute of play forced Picantovich Green Rangers's goalkeeper Delmiro Quin to throw himself to the left, to be able to save the ball. Ernesto Guillelme was really disappointed when he shot the ball just outside the right post instead of scoring a goal in the 84th minute. Picantovich Green Rangers's manager could be seen on the sidelines shaking his head and muttering to himself as his team had just wasted another chance. Julian Berto was probably a little too eager to shoot when he, in the 95th played minute, shot the ball from way out. The shot was hard, but the ball flew wide of the goal. For all the effort they put into the match, the Picantovich Green Rangers players left disappointed. They had fought hard, but couldn't break down the home team's defense. The match ended in a win for Nacimiento AFC.
