Spectators: 32 (Terracing: 25, Seating: 7, VIP seats: 0) After 4 minutes, Damaso Rivas mouthed his way into the referee's book.

Ciro Iyan didn't have a chance when a screaming shot from Leonardo Oliverios went, in the 6th minute, to the upper right corner, 0-1 was the resulting score. 1-1 became the score in the 10th minute when Damaso Rivas elegantly shot the ball into goal just under the crossbar.

Leonardo Oliverios sent away a hard shot on goal in the 21st minute, but the ball went just over the crossbar and out. A very good chance.
