Spectators: 34 (Terracing: 26, Seating: 8, VIP seats: 0) The mood of the audience was pleasant when Shepherd Merayo made the kick off which started today's match. When James Velazco came up free with the goalie in the 5th minute, the Bellaco fans jumped to their feet. But the shot missed the goal by a fraction of an inch, and the fans sat back down disappointed that James Velazco couldn't finish the play. If Shepherd Merayo had kept his shot down it would have been a goal in the 12th minute. The ball went over the crossbar and out instead.

Admon Oñez didn't even have to move as the ball rolled over the line well wide of the goal. A wasted opportunity for Bellaco.

After 63 played minutes, Bellaco's Fabricio Tene shot from a long distance, and at first it looked like the ball was going into the goal, but the goalkeeper Admon Oñez came through and got his fingers on the ball before it flew over the goal line.
