Estadio Azteca
Spectators: 32 (Terracing: 25, Seating: 7, VIP seats: 0) It was fairly windy and cold on the field when Alberto Elazar kicked off to start the match. In the 3rd minute, All Black FC's Valentin Castulo seemed to kick out at an opponent. The referee saw this and, surprisingly, showed Valentin Castulo the red card, dismissing him from the pitch. The coaching staff of All Black FC protested bitterly, but the referee would have none of it, and Valentin Castulo had no choice but to slowly walk off the pitch. The referee blew the whistle for a penalty in the 3rd minute of the game. One of All Black FC:s players had nearly got his shirt torn off by an opponent while getting free in front of Invernadas:s goal. In the 5th minute there was a penalty for Invernadas.

All Black FC's Daniel Iliana got a good chance for a goal in the 8th minute, but he totally mistimed the shot and it went over the crossbar. After 14 minutes, Guillermo Quintyn mouthed his way into the referee's book. The tension between the All Black FC and the Invernadas players grew even worse after the yellow card. A collision led to All Black FC getting a freekick after 14 minutes play. Guillermo Quintyn hit a great ball. Ricardo Laffitte struck a weak shot in the 17th minute. Godfredo Calixto didn't even have to move as the ball rolled over the line well wide of the goal. A wasted opportunity for All Black FC.

Godfredo Calixto came out of the goal and Ricardo Laffitte tried to chip the ball over his head. To his dismay, the ball went over the crossbar and out of play. 30 minutes into the match, All Black FC's goal looked a bit too open when Alberto Elazar came free, but Martin Quin reached the ball before it rolled over the goal line. 33 minutes into the match, Moises Monte notched a goal, 1-2, to the right of All Black FC's Martin Quin.

After having played for 54 minutes, Ricardo Laffitte managed to get in a good position for a shot on goal. All Black FC's supporters crossed their fingers, but Ricardo Laffitte was, after a quick turn that froze the defenders, out of balance and shot the ball just to the right of the goal. In the 58th minute Daniel Iliana shot on, it seemed, an open goal, but Godfredo Calixto saw the ball coming and threw himself on it before it passed the goal line. Alberto Elazar who was well placed in front of the goal fired away a dangerous shot that in the 61stth minute tested the skills of Martin Quin when he managed to save the team from getting behind.

Ricardo Laffitte sent away a hard shot on goal in the 68th minute, but the ball went just over the crossbar and out. A very good chance.
