Perrugorría
Spectators: 32 (Terracing: 25, Seating: 7, VIP seats: 0) The sun was shining, the grass was green and the audience cheered when Isaias Firman got the match started through his kick off. After 8 minutes, Nicasio Nesor mouthed his way into the referee's book. The tension between the Oeste psicodelico and the Perrugorría FC players grew even worse after the yellow card. 15 minutes into the game, Oeste psicodelico's Gogo Quintana nearly tore a hole in the net with a booming shot. Fulgencio Rivero made a valiant effort, but he could not reach the ball in time, 0-1. Ovidio Belo took care of the ball after a well-directed shot from Octavio Quexal, even though the ball almost passed him on his left side. The supporters of Perrugorría FC booed when Oeste psicodelico was adjudged a doubtful freekick after 20 match minutes in a wonderful position. Gogo Quintana didn't get a good kick on the ball. In the 22nd match minute, Oeste psicodelico was awarded a freekick, the ball was picked up by Abel Ermano to maneuver through the defense. Teo Baldovino was really disappointed when he shot the ball just outside the right post instead of scoring a goal in the 23rd minute. Perrugorría FC's manager could be seen on the sidelines shaking his head and muttering to himself as his team had just wasted another chance. Teo Baldovino came free with the goalkeeper in the 25th minute of the match, and shot straight on target. The shot was a little too simple and Ovidio Belo could save by the left post. In the 28th minute the ball was on its way in behind Perrugorría FC's goalkeeper Fulgencio Rivero, but with the help of a sacrificing defense, he could catch the ball at the crossbar. If Gogo Quintana had kept his shot down it would have been a goal in the 29th minute. The ball went over the crossbar and out instead. Oeste psicodelico's Ovidio Belo played magnificently when he managed to stop the ball from hitting the goal, after a sharp shot by Octavio Quexal in the 34th minute of play. Isaias Firman received a nice pass in the box and took a hard shot in the 38th minute. Fulgencio Rivero tensed up and prepared to dive, but the shot went over the goal with him having to interfere. Ezequiel Duardo took a chance and fired a shot far from the goal in the 42nd minute, but it turned out to be a dangerous situation for Ovidio Belo. Oeste psicodelico's goalkeeper really had to stretch himself to stop the ball from crossing the goal line. Even after changing tactics the home team jogged off the field with a 0-1 deficit. They would have to work harder if they wanted to turn things around in the second half.

Both teams looked relatively alert before the second half when the referee blew his whistle to tell Octavio Quexal to make the kick off. When Ismael Frasco fell near the penalty area in the 53rd minute he thought he would be awarded a free kick. The referee ignored Perrugorría FC's protests and gave Ismael Frasco a yellow card for diving instead. After having played for 61 minutes, Teo Baldovino managed to get in a good position for a shot on goal. Perrugorría FC's supporters crossed their fingers, but Teo Baldovino was, after a quick turn that froze the defenders, out of balance and shot the ball just to the right of the goal. Oeste psicodelico's Gogo Quintana got a good chance for a goal in the 66th minute, but he totally mistimed the shot and it went over the crossbar. After a defensive mix-up in Oeste psicodelico's zone, Teo Baldovino stole the ball and had only the goalie to beat. Ovidio Belo came out of the goal and Teo Baldovino tried to chip the ball over his head. To his dismay, the ball went over the crossbar and out of play. An unexpectedly hard shot by Octavio Quexal in the 84th minute of play forced Oeste psicodelico's goalkeeper Ovidio Belo to throw himself to the left, to be able to save the ball.

Fulgencio Rivero showed brilliant goalkeeper skills when he caught the ball after a hard shot from Isaias Firman in the 90th minute of the match.
