Spectators: 32 (Terracing: 25, Seating: 7, VIP seats: 0) The mood of the audience was pleasant when Guillermo Silviano made the kick off which started today's match. Delmar Gaitano fired away a screaming shot towards the goal in the 13th minute, but the shot went just over the crossbar without Camilo Darien having to interfere. In the 18th minute Eusebio Kelemen shot on, it seemed, an open goal, but Abel Elizardo saw the ball coming and threw himself on it before it passed the goal line. Froilan Ledesma fired away a screaming shot towards the goal in the 25th minute, but the shot went just over the crossbar without Abel Elizardo having to interfere. Eustaquio Gorosti charged in rather forcefully in the 36th minute of the match, and managed to knock his opponent down. The referee showed Eustaquio Gorosti the yellow card, and asked the players to shake hands before continuing play. In the 37thth minute of the game Eusebio Kelemen who was perfectly placed tried to make a shot on goal, but San Lorenzo de Almagro's Abel Elizardo was lucky and managed to grab hold of the ball. Eusebio Kelemen received a nice pass in the box and took a hard shot in the 40th minute. Abel Elizardo tensed up and prepared to dive, but the shot went over the goal with him having to interfere. Abel Elizardo made a wonderful reflex save on a shot from Froilan Ledesma in the 45th minute of play. Delmar Gaitano fired away a screaming shot towards the goal in the 48th minute, but the shot went just over the crossbar without Camilo Darien having to interfere. After fighting hard for a draw in the first half, the players were able to take a much needed rest.

Both teams looked relatively alert before the second half when the referee blew his whistle to tell Eusebio Kelemen to make the kick off. In the 54th minute the ball was on its way in behind San Lorenzo de Almagro's goalkeeper Abel Elizardo, but with the help of a sacrificing defense, he could catch the ball at the crossbar. When San Lorenzo de Almagro's Guillermo Silviano in the 57th minute got a chance for a shot 57th didn't hesitate and placed the ball to the right of the goalie. A beautiful save bye Pozuelos's goalie prevented a goal. Froilan Ledesmas short, quick shot in the 61stth minute got Abel Elizardo to make great effort and bar the ball away from getting in. In the 63rd minute, Froilan Ledesma fired away a shot on goal. He put a little to much spin on the ball and sent it just wide of the right post. After some fancy dribbling in the 65th minute, Eusebio Kelemen managed to get in a good position for a shot. Pozuelos's supporters rose to their feet, but Eusebio Kelemen was a bit off balance and shot the ball just wide of the left post. Abel Elizardo breathed a sigh of relief and went to take the goal kick. Abel Elizardo was out of position in the 71 minute of play, and Froilan Ledesma capitalized on the mistake with a soft shot into the goal. Froilan Ledesma really showed his touch with that goal: 0-1. If Delmar Gaitano had kept his shot down it would have been a goal in the 80th minute. The ball went over the crossbar and out instead. Eusebio Franco sent away a hard shot on goal in the 84th minute, but the ball went just over the crossbar and out. A very good chance. 89 minutes into the match, Pozuelos's Froilan Ledesma sent off a blazing shot straight on target, a shot that Abel Elizardo narrowly saved just below the crossbar. Eusebio Kelemen received a nice pass in the box and took a hard shot in the 91st minute. Abel Elizardo tensed up and prepared to dive, but the shot went over the goal with him having to interfere. The away crowd were delighted with the way their team had played and cheered loudly when the final whistle sounded. Pozuelos walked away with the win, even though the match was close until the end.
