Spectators: 33 (Terracing: 26, Seating: 7, VIP seats: 0) The field was rather wet after several days of rain when Isaias Urtsua took the kick off in the first half of the match. If Benito Pacifico had kept his shot down it would have been a goal in the 7th minute. The ball went over the crossbar instead. Felipe Eladio took care of the ball after a well-directed shot from Benito Pacifico, even though the ball almost passed him on his left side. Anguinán AFC's Eustacio Presebal played magnificently when he managed to stop the ball from hitting the goal, after a sharp shot by Isaias Urtsua in the 13th minute of play. Lucas Salomone recieved an excellent pass in front of the goal in the 15th minute. Unfortunately, he received the ball on his off foot and could only manage a weak shot that went over the goal. The audience thought a goal was coming when Benedicto Lluterio got free with Eustacio Presebal in the 27th minute, but the goalkeeper managed to catch the ball with a huge effort. Eustacio Presebal made a wonderful reflex save on a shot from Isaias Urtsua in the 28th minute of play. After 29 played minutes Anguinán AFC got a freekick which was hit by Pablo Rami.

Isaias Urtsua sent away a hard shot on goal in the 37th minute, but the ball went just over the crossbar and out.
