Luciano Faure received a nice pass in the box and took a hard shot in the 22nd minute. Alfredo Uriona tensed up and prepared to dive, but the shot went over the goal with him having to interfere.

Zarpas Durango ran back to his position shaking his head. In the 25th minute, Luciano Faure hit a crossing free kick to the open man running down the field. The long shot by Filomeno Tinoco in the 30th minute really tested Andrés Espina's skills. The ball was on its way into the goal to the left of him when he managed to stretch himself and save the shot and avoid a goal. After a defensive mix-up in Loanzana FC's zone, Norino Cumplido stole the ball and had only the goalie to beat. Andrés Espina came out of the goal and Norino Cumplido tried to chip the ball over his head. To his dismay, the ball went over the crossbar and out of play. Andrés Espina stood for a superb save when he managed to get hold of Norino Cumplido's shot from short distance in the 44th minute.
