Spectators: 34 (Terracing: 26, Seating: 8, VIP seats: 0) The field was rather wet after several days of rain when Guillermo Gomesano took the kick off in the first half of the match.

Without hesitation aimed to the right of Octavio Patrido, who managed to lunge to the right direction and made a save. After 9 minutes of play, Falckner's Daniel Iturri made it 0-1 when he simply outclassed the defender marking him and hit a curling shot into the right side of the net.
